thenorthumbrian 0 Posted September 20, 2011 Share Posted September 20, 2011 Newcastle United used to be hyped up by Sky TV as “The Entertainers”. In the almost-glory days of Kevin Keegan’s first management stint and with creative and attacking players like Ginola, Ferdinand, Asprilla, Cole, Gillespie, Albert and Lee to name but a few they believed in scoring more goals than their opponents not defending. They believed that they would always outscore them, no matter who they played and no matter how many goals they let in. Of course that dream ended as quickly as it had begun, there was no willing billionaire to deliver on the amazing potential that the most passionate fans in the world gave Newcastle and Keegan’s great foundation and attacking brand of football had created. Manchester City are the new entertainers Read more: http://chrisreed.brandrepublic.com/2011/08.../#ixzz1YVtxaWxP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StevenL 0 Posted September 20, 2011 Share Posted September 20, 2011 Nice to see they've stopped buying defensive midfielders. Only signing crocked ones on frees now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ohhh_yeah 2759 Posted September 20, 2011 Share Posted September 20, 2011 I love how that author tried to claim they are everyone's second team and the team that people will love to watch. Never liked personally. Hope they continue to enjoy the view of that giant shadow above them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are good to watch at times but the entertainers is a name I enjoyed having been associated with Newcastle. United don't get many compliments these days.

Met you at the Shields derby last year with me mate Craig. You, that Scotty and "geordie", we had a pint in that bar in Heworth. Good crack if it was you mate, hope your scouting is going well.

Dr Gloom 19736 Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 they're a lot more entertaining than last season but they're not exactly gung ho like keegan's newcastle side of the 90s were. i don't think a team has really played in that "if they score 3, we'll score 4" approach keegan employed since.

Sadly that just proves you don't win trophies playing that way, shame really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
