It's in the Sun. Say no more!

[ooohTerryHurlock]

.... Including money he raises from player sales, so not that much of a war chest really is it??? How much revenue will KK generate if he is appointed manager??? Do you think the exec boxes would be empty if he was here?? or do you think people would want to be on the Le Tiss/King Kev Revolution Bus as it sets sail for the premiership???? Just get the deal done - and lets get cracking.....

[70's Mike]

as i read that i really fear for the clubs future

[Stepgar]

Wow only 20 mil required. I would have thought he would need a lot more than that

[lordswoodsaints]

A long queue of buyers?......I very much doubt it!

 

My guess is that keegan would want big money if we are shackled with the -10 points but maybe only half that if we can wriggle out of it,so pinnacle are doing all they can to overturn the decision because they havnt got the dosh but don't want a cheap option manager.

[moon monkey]

That better be 20 million to get back to the premiership not just the championship. He will be living on a cloud if he needed that much just to get up to the championship. As for player sales, well he could raise enough to get a new kettle for the training ground.

[Mr Nice]

Usual made up rubbish in the Sun newspaper.

[bmthred]

i doubt the amount has been quoted by kk, and if any manager needs 20 million just to get promoted from league 1 then they are not worth employing.

 

i hope that this is just the usual lazy journalism and that kk is apointed.

[KMondo]

Wow only 20 mil required. I would have thought he would need a lot more than that

 

And that includes the money raised from player sales, so only 19 million really. What a bargain.

[Toadhall Saint]

No direct quotes from KK in there - I could have made that up.

[Wade Garrett]

The Sun have had it in for Keegan this week. He has obvioulsy upset them in the past and they're getting their own back now.

[alpine_saint]

He is try to get himself excluded from contention, or put off the buyer ?

[Glasgow_Saint]

no direct quotes - again

[Fan The Flames]

it's paper b*****ks

Dont forget Keegans liverpool past, theres no love lost between them and the S*n. I smell a conspiracy

[rick1976.4.38]

why do people bother redaing such a cr*p paper that writes b**llocks most of the time

[stevegrant]

Number of direct quotes in that article: None.

 

Probably fairly safe to ignore for now.

[S-Clarke]

Another article full of pointless drivel...written by the sun.

[CWD]

I really dont understand how the Sun can publish this rubbish - there is no evidence to support the headline!

 

They have literally just made it up!

[Mole]

Yesterdays headline was:

 

GOOD NEWS LE TISS TO BE CHAIRMAN

 

BAD NEWS KEEGAN TO BE MANAGER

 

What ****** that was. Everyone down here wants KKK to join us.

[stevegrant]

Possibly, although I dont read the arms dealing pages

All that is true, it's the silly little non-quoted filler stories that are bull****.

[pangy]

LOL evn I could get us back into the championship with £20 mill

[gordonToo]

LOL evn I could get us back into the championship with £20 mill

 

Quite! I'd even expect Wotte to make a decent attempt with that sum at his disposal.

A bus setting sail?

[skintsaint]

20m...

 

our team isnt that bad, 4 or 5 good additions at this level is all that is needed to get into play offs at least.

when directly asked, twice, MLT refused to rule out KK as manager

[Matthew Le God]

He actually made it sound more that Keegan was one of a number of people he was asking for advice as to who the manager should be.

[NickG]

don't think he said for advice in this one.

 

point I was making the guy was asking him about KK for manager, he could easily said "no" or "it was only advising etc not to be manager" - particularly as he is aware of the publicity following the meeting. He did say I have spoken to a number of people and want to get this right, just this one was photographed - but this was an obvious time for him to clarify/deny it if he is not considering KK for manager - he didn't.

 

Not saying he is going to be manager, but think, from that interview, and TL's and Crouch comments - he is definately being considered.

[Matthew Le God]

He has also said about the Keegan picture/rumour of him being manager that it is a case of "2 + 2 and coming to 5".

[NickG]

not heard that quote.

 

Did you not think it was an easy and obvious time, with interviewing pursuing manager line, for him to deny it?

[Matthew Le God]

I think he didn't deny that Keegan "may" be manager because it is still a possibility. However I think he is lower down the list perhaps.

[1976_Child]

A good point someone made above about the extra revenue a KK + MLT duo would bring in. So long as the club didn't try and stiff us with silly prices I would bet my left testicle that we would get way better gates with them in charge than over the last season. Last season it was £24 a ticket on the day. I would hope that they would be sensibly priced at around £17/18 and season tixs cheaper as well. I heard that Blackburn are flogging STs for £99 - in the prem? Chrikey, makes you think eh. SFC is def a good buy for Mr Investor and I am sure that he has more business savy than RL and will prefer to get the stadium full and buzzing as soon as possible.

 

Bring it on! KK in the dug-out, MLT in the boardroom, reasonably priced tix and the most passionate fans in the land. We can't fail! We will have won the Champions League within five years for sure!!

 

UP THE GLORIOUS SAINTS!

that was what I was trying to say (probably badly!) he clearing is considering him or would have got rid of rumour. Not sure or convinced he is first choice.

 

About only thing I have heard from the good source recently was that KK was being considered but MLT was leaning towards another manager.

 

Who knows!

[hutch]

Was I the only one to notice that Mark Wright is a free agent again?

[NickG]

yep.

[thorpie the sinner]

MW, don't think so lol!

[John Smith]

load of old rubbish!
