Kevin Keegan conquers Newcastle United For the Third Time

Kevin Keegan will outline his future plans for Newcastle United when he is officially presented at a media conference at St James' Park on Friday (1400 GMT).

The 56-year-old began work on Thursday when he took his first training session and spent time with club chairman Chris Mort ahead of his first match in charge against Bolton Wanderers in the Premier League on Saturday.

Keegan's third coming at Newcastle after his previous incarnations as player (1982-84) and manager (1992-97) has galvanised the soccer-mad city, but Friday's media conference will be a relatively low key affair.

Keegan has asked that the ground should not be open to fans while he meets the media. The fans, though, will give him a rapturous welcome on Saturday.

He will quickly need to turn his attention to the transfer market, with the window closing in two weeks, if he is to strengthen his side, currently in mid-table.

He is also yet to announce who his assistant will be with former right-hand man Terry McDermott a possible choice.

Chris Coleman, who resigned as manager as Real Sociedad on Wednesday and was Keegan's captain when he was manager at Fulham, has also been mentioned as a possible candidate for the job.

Keegan has confessed to not seeing a match live since he left his last job as Manchester City manager in 2005, but he saw Newcastle beat Stoke City 4-1 in an FA Cup third round replay on Wednesday.

England miss Euro ’08 bus

England hopes of a place in Euro 2008 finals disappeared at Wembley yesterday when they lost 2-3 to Croatia after fighting back from conceding two early goals to pull level. Subsequently, head coach Steve MaClaren was sacked.

Instead of hanging to the point that would have secured their place in the tournament co-hosted by Austria and Switzerland, they conceded a third goal 13 minutes from time, allowing Russia to steal into second place in Group E and qualify with Croatia.

It was the first time since 1984 that England missed out on the European Championship finals and the first time since the 1994 World Cup that they failed to qualify for a major tournament.
Former England captain David Beckham, a second-half substitute said, “This is a big setback, not just for the players but the nation… We have to show the English way which is to fight back.”
The home crowd was stunned after eight minutes when Scott Carson, controversially chosen in goal after making his debut in a friendly only last week, allowed a speculative shot by Niko Kranjcar to skid off him and into the net, and it looked all over when Ivica Olic doubled the lead six minutes later.

England pulled level with a 56th-minute Frank Lampard penalty followd by a great goal by striker Peter Crouch, who expertly controlled a cross from half-time substitute Beckham before volleying the equalizer.

Croatia, though, continued to look dangerous and won it in the 77th-minute when substitute Mladen Petric lashed in a shot from the edge of the box.
The Croatians will be among the second seeds when the draw for the finals is made in Lucerne, Switzerland on December 2.
