Kevin Keegan and Me…..
I felt sad to hear the news Kevin Keegan had passed away.
He was my first school girl crush!!! When everyone wore Newcastle United hats and scarves….mine were red…in support of Liverpool..only because I loved Kevin Keegan.
Many years later (in the mid 90’s) I got a part time job, working on match days in the Rover Suite at St James Park, it was a right laugh!! Then they moved me into the Directors Lounge…I don’t want to go I said!!!
On my first shift in the Directors Lounge Kevin Keegan walked in…my jaw dropped to the floor and I asked, ‘does he come in here every match day?’ Yes…was the answer. Right I’m staying!!!
What a lush, lush, lush man…I was in awe…a proper genuine all round top bloke…. I was in my element. They definitely were the glory days..The Toon had a buzz about it…the footy was exciting…Kevin Keegan was the driving force.
I’m sure no one will disagree, he was a legend and gained the upmost respect from players and managers alike.
RIP Kevin Keegan, the world of football won’t be the same without you.
So, wish I was the celebrant delivering your life story!!!
