What Has Keegan Done For Newcastle?

I was just looking at Newcastle's record since wonder boy Keegan arrived in January.

He went to watch them beat Stoke 4-1 in the cup.

Since then they've been less than great.

The overall number of goals scored is 3 and conceeded 20!

How long will the fans put up with this?

He was brought in to placate the fans. I'm sure they will give him a longer leash than they would have given anybody else.

the problem here is that Keegan's arrival would automatically transform the club's fortunes and that has not happened-if anything, they are in a worse state now than before with relegation not only a possibility but a distinct probability

Newcastle have made a big mistake of appointing a manager who performed well previously and who would therefore do so again-i have never understood that way of thinking

the best way forward is for Keegan to resign or be sacked, the club to be relegated, at least half of the squad to be transfer-listed and to start again from scratch
