Kevin Keegan has officially resigned from Newcastle, ending his 8 month tenure in charge at St. James' Park.
Now, he's truly gone! Irreconcilable differences for a marriage made in hell, was the reason.
Try as hard as they may, the conclusion is clear for all to see.
In a stand-off between owner and manager, there's only 1 clear winner. Jose Mourinho, although he brought 2 titles to the Bridge was forced to eat the humble pie, then Alan Curbishley and now it's King Kev's turn. It doesn't pay to bite the hands that feed you!
Once a Kop favorite, KK was never a brilliant manager contrary to his playing days. Stints at Newcastle, Fulham, England, Manc City and Newcastle again never brought any silverware.
Goals galore and porous defense were his playing theme. Sexy football but unsafe sex (as in football terms of coz) undermined his managing career.
OK, he was once very close to land a title for the Toon's Army but was pipped to the line by Sir Alex, surrendering 12 points lead in the process....but other than that....ZILCH.
I'll never miss him though...ermmm I'm not a Geordie, of coz I won't.
Who's next?
