I'd have him as gaffer before Howe anyday .
Do you think he's still mentally up for it ?

If Howe takes us down don't be surprised if there's another Rafalution

2-3 years and then be the D.O.F./ special ambassador. He'd smash it kidda .
Suddenly I can't get that soundtrack from MASH out my head.

It brings on many changes
And I can take or leave it if I please

Roy Hodgson was managing in the Prem last season at 73. Sir Bobby was 71 when given the sack here and would have carried on in football barring cancer. Alex Ferguson retired at 72 and Keegan would appear to be in better physical condition than him .
*dreams shattered into a billion pieces.
*dreams reignited
And it showed keggy. Sir Bobby was having a hard time (putting it mildly) with some players. How quickly it's forgotten about the parties every time we played in London. Fergie was not at his cutting best at 72 and Hodgson cut a forlorn figure on the touchline at times last season. Younger managers must be encouraged

It sounds weird to even mention that he's nearly 71 considering I watched him as a player although I reckon he would be up for it mentally but for many other reasons he wouldn't take it now. I still see a position for him at the club though. In fact, it should be demanded.

It's an absolutely fair point but equally there's something to be said for age and experience.

It's going to be interesting seeing where it goes. Would be good to have keegan invloved
I hasten to add Pie that I'm with you on this in that I don't want Rafa back. He's not the answer
That is a good point keggy. I agree totally with your reply. My memory goes back to when Keegan first became manager and he got us into the Premiership. Players from abroad knew Keegan, 'Mighty Mouse' as he was known, and his reputation as a player helped enormously to attract players who otherwise would have given us a wide berth. Gems like him are few and far between.
Aye I know
Just having a bit crack myself mate, best medicine to take as a means to get over Watfords late equaliser as far as I'm concerned.
Benitez as DOF does ring true though, urgh headaches back......

Aye it is rather depressing at times. But not as depressing as Ashley still being there and look forward to the future. If that's a season in the championship so be it.Aye I know

Good comment I am thinking along the same lines.
