I always remember when I was young a programme on tele late afternoon I think called F.A.C.T.S. It was the current England squad doing training drills to show and teach those watching.
Always remember the shiltons and keegans in it. Can't find anything on it now anywhere.

I think Kevin Keegan was every little boys favourite England player and the most famous (possibly) of that era. I recall he scored for Southampton at the Victoria Ground not long after his transfer from Hamburg. I've always found him a likeable bloke who wears his heart on his sleeve. Happy birthday KK.

I remember him falling off his bike on superstars and missing the beginning of the season at Liverpool It's the equivalent of Aguero doing it now .....

Respect to him because he moved to play overseas. While at Hamburg he was amongst the best players in the world. Unfortunately it was between World Cups. Keegan was a fantastic player.

He unveiled the Stan statue whilen he managed England Isn't there a story to be told about how Keegan came to be unveiling the statue Joe? I believe he wasn't the first choice. Got a feeling you might like to tell it.

Got a feeling you might like to tell it. Another very famous ex England legend was asked but demanded a huge fee. I don't know for sure who it was but I've got an idea. It's the same one a mate of mine saw and asked for his autograph and was told it would cost him a tenner. But it might not have been that one. It worked out one because Keegan was England manager and was honoured to do it in Stan's name and was very decent and happy.

I have an educated guess based on lots of other things I heard about his attitude to money.

He may be 65, but he's still down with the kids, leaving the stadium with his big headphones on.

You've always named him in the past, and seemed to relish doing so. Has something happened to make you think it might not be him, or have you been threatened with a lawsuit (smiley face)?

Despite being capable of playing thrilling nogger they were vile. Brian Clough realised the scale of his task during the charity shield game

Too right tricky, they were a horrible and vile club, and their supporters weren't any better either. Hate LUFC and their fans with a passion.
