It was magical seeing him play for us week in,week out. what side we had. And he was fantastic. Sad day to hear this. I was ski-ing in Italy and received the news on a ski lift from a couple of Watford fans that Kevin Keegan had signed for Saints. I thought it was a wind up until I was able to get hold of a Daily Mail the following day (no mobile phones in those days) What a player!! If we had been able to get hold of Peter Shilton a year earlier, I reckon we could have won the League and/or FA Cup. 1
Sevvy Posted 2 hours ago Posted 2 hours ago (edited) I was at work at Vosper Thorneycroft when I heard Kevin had signed for Saints, I thought it was a wind up as well, Edited 2 hours ago by Sevvy
OldNick Posted 1 hour ago Posted 1 hour ago It was world news European footballer of the year joining Saints. Sadly he left under a cloud. He was in the Echo asking for us to buy season tickets and was going to be here, but then moved to Newcastle.
warsash saint Posted 38 minutes ago Posted 38 minutes ago (edited) I remember walking home from junior school in Portchester & the lollipop man telling us. Hassled my Dad & got my first Saints season ticket that season. Edited 36 minutes ago by warsash saint
Morse Posted 30 minutes ago Posted 30 minutes ago (edited) I was on my evening paper-round delivering the Echo when I heard he signed. Hope he makes a complete recovery. Edited 25 minutes ago by Morse
BallBoy Posted 25 minutes ago Posted 25 minutes ago An amazing day when he signed for us. Totally unexpected. Everyone walking around in a daze and not believing it until it was the first item on the 6 o'clock news. He was a force of nature on the pitch and turned us into a big time club. I was there for the bicycle kick goal that never was. I hope he can beat this awful disease that strikes at random.
