Breaking news on the BBC:

Newcastle have confirmed that Kevin Keegan will make a dramatic return to manage the club.
The 56-year-old former Manchester City boss managed the Magpies from 1992 to 1997 and will return to St James' Park as Sam Allardyce's successor.

The man has balls.

That's as daft as us going back in for Ossie. Wait....

 

[Adamspurs]

The man has balls.

And a few million a year.

Keegan was their best manager (league table wise and all that) since they last won a trophy, so I don't see this as a completely daft idea.

Having said that, three years or whatever out of football is a long time, will be interesting to see how quickly he can readjust.

 

[MrSparky]

well I for one thinks its good news. Theres always room for a character of the calibre of Keegan in the premiership. Glad to see him back, though he could be in a thankless task.

 

[TheBlueRooster]

At least we know he won't get sacked, he'll walk long before that. Loved him as a player but no respect for him as a manager.

 

[Gazza123]

Think he will regret this .As the saying goes you should never go back.

 

[Marty]

mate, general footie and all that, there's already a thread there

 

[PT]

Threads merged.

He also spent more than any other manager in PL history up until his departure.

Ashley is making the same mistake as levy when he appointed Hoddle. He thought with his heart and listened to the fans demands.

The Toon circus rolls on.

I thought King Kev said he was done with football management. Didn't see it coming at all. Still, can't wait to get home and laugh at my barcode housemate, who has insisted Mourinho is coming every time I've spoken to him.

 

[montylynch]

I'd love it, just love it.

Good to see him back IMO, i bet the geordies are creaming themselves.

Shearer is to be appointed as Warm Up man.
