They can respect him all they like but he’s hardly Mr Motivator is he?

 

The days of just shouting at footballers and telling them to run faster, work harder or that they’re shit are long gone.

Not at that level. Not when that's what the fans want.

That is literally all football at Sunderland is about. It's the fans whole MO.

You'd think someone with his money and on a decent earner with TV work wouldn't have the slightest interest in managing a 3rd tier side.

Especially given he's failed there before and been bewwwed by their wonderful fans.

They would have a 500 page thread on RTG laughing at us if we had appointed Keegan when we got taken over , yet they are getting all giddy over a bloke who hasn’t managed in 11 years and was a complete failure in his last job.

You can see why they'd be excited by this, after years of nobody paying attention to them.

 

Surely the scene is set for a Netflix return...

 

Roy Keane marches in to save Sunderland's season, whilst Jermaine Defoe rolls back the years to fire them out of league 1 and into a new era!

 

Narrator; But there wasn't a new era.

Keane will come and make a pig's ear of it before the end of the season, and he'll be predictably flounce off again. 

 

It'll get to a point where they'll burn through all their nostalgic returns. Fat Sam, Baaaaaly, Sewpa Kev and MON will all return, fail, and eventually be hounded out, in 20 year they'll be clamouring for the return of Jack Ross til the end of the season because "He took us to wembo Marra" 

 

Problem is by that time they'll be in the conference north.

They'll never get over the nostalgia thing in the same way we haven't.  There have been people here seriously wanting Keegan back as a manager even though he was 10 years out of date 10 years ago.

 

Difference is he was good for us, while Baaaaalllly was a bang average player at their best and essentially the pre-cursor of 'Catts for me like'.

Keegan was a unanimous success for us though. Keane took charge of them for 18 months and was booed off in his final few matches.

 

He has also only had one other job, which was a complete failure.

 

The nostalgia comparisons aren’t similar at all. It’d be the equivalent of us screaming for Chris Hughton back every five minutes.

 

I’m also fairly sure nobody seriously thinks Keegan would be a good fit for manager right now. Understand most people would only have him back in some sort of Ambassador role.
