Kevin Keegan quit again….and Newcastle United future is in darkness

September 04 14:24 2008 Print This Article

I’m speechless and write this post in tears (again) after the same tears were hit me on the first time he’s leaving the club that he and we are all love together so much. So what we’re going to do now? Are we still the same after today and what are we going to do on the next Toon match against Hull?

Mungo has write a good point of his resume during the eight months of Kevin Keegan time with us, and I said thank you so much for his great article below. I hope the Toon Army will keep stick together…

My consistent views over the past eight months under KK (21 games):

  1. I didn’t want KK appointed. He was about 10-20th choice on my list.
  2. When appointed, I accepted it and got behind him 100%. As I have always done with every manager of NUFC since my first one in Joe Harvey.
  3. I forecast (as did others) that it would all end in tears. I predict that we are/were never going to win anything in my remaining lifetime and KK’s end of reign was always going to be either via the sack or by him quitting (am I allowed to say he quit?) His end was never going to be on a high on the back of winning a trophy in my opinion.
  4. This week I have prayed that he would stay. My heart said he would, my head feared otherwise. Today it was decided and he’s gone.
  5. I ask myself (and others have asked me) “what will you do if KK goes”? My answer has always been the same in that “I’ll be at the next match supporting the lads on the pitch”. To borrow a cliche usually reserved only for funerals, “its what Kevin would have wanted and would expect from me”.
  6. I will decide in my own time how I will ‘protest’ but it will definitely not be by staying away from SJP. That might be easy to say for all you folk living on the continent who never attend on a regular basis and those UK fans who don’t own season tickets but that isn’t the answer for me and I suspect other regular attendees. To bawl my displeasure to the Directors Box (which I sit next to) will have more effect and give me more pleasure than staying away ever would.
  7. I urge all season ticket holders to do the same and attend the Hull match to get behind the lads on the pitch whilst voicing your displeasure to the hierarchy off it.
  8. The King is dead. Long live the king.

AND AGAIN, IF YOU LOVE THE TOON, PLEASE CONSIDERING TO SIGN THIS PETITION AGAIN, AND AGAIN, AND AGAIN, AND AGAIN….

    Go to games? And give that cunt Ashley more of my money? Fuck that. I’m sure many toon fan will agree with me, that only empty seats at games will drive him away. He doesn’t give a shit about our opinions, as long as he’s raking in more and more cash from the club, he’s not going to leave, end of story.

    Great article Ed/Mungo, I have also made up my mind in this time of crisis. Just like Mungo said about “Supporters who lived on the continent who never attend on a regular basis” I will always support the lads on the pitch but will not be wearing any black and white, I will ony wear England jersey as an appreciation to all the player not to the club who I loved the most. This will be a dark time for us (again) but I hope if we supporters can stick up and unite, soon we will see the light again (very soon I hope). Long Live The King!! Thx for the short but emotional memory Kev..

    Now all we have to do is to wait another version of 2009’s Kenny Dalglish to the club…
