King Kev has left the building

After the mystery surrounding the last couple of days, it's not really a surprise that he's gone. I'm kind of dumbfounded now - the club is once again the laughing stock of the nation, we're managerless a few weeks into a new season, and I can't imagine who would actually want to walk into this job given the circumstances of Keegans departure (he stated he was forced to have players in his squad who he had no interest in).

As usual, it's always exciting being a Newcastle fan, but I'd take a few years of not quite as exciting for some decent progress and playing on the pitch, rather than in the papers. Whoever gets the job next, good luck, you're going to need it.....
