The Geordie Messiah Summary

The Geordie Messiah: Keegan Years by Alan Oliver

Kevin Keegan's resignation from Newcastle United football club after nearly five years made headline news around the world. He was viewed as the most charismatic manager in Newcastle United's history, and on results the most successful. Sports journalist, Alan Oliver, saw every game United played under Keegan, and in this book he charts the team's progress. Beginning with the story behind Keegan's resignation, he recalls the time Keegan returned to his beloved United to take over as manager when the once-proud club was at its lowest ebb in its history. He covers the Andy Cole affair and the signing of Alan Shearer. He looks at Keegan the man, Keegan the manager and how he dealt with his link with the fans and the media. Oliver offers the opinion that Keegan was bigger than the club and he tells of Keegan's biggest regret - that of not being able to win a Trophy for the Geordie fans.
