Terry Mac...


Recommended Posts

Read Kevin Keegan's book recently, and he recounts that when he brought Terry into his backroom team during his first spell managing Newcastle in the early 1990s, he'd been running a burger van.

 

Cut from a slightly different cloth to today's spoilt brats, though I could definitely see Milner and Robertson running a fantastic burger van.

Great player and always liked a goal for the big occasion. Very strange how the Newcastle connection has stayed strong given his local roots. Terry Mac,Stevie Heighway,Jimmy Case were probably earlier favourites of mine before King Kenny waltzed in and blew us all away.

Terry Mac and Jimmy Case were good mates, liked a bevvy.

The steel in those 70's and 80's sides though. Case, McDermott, Souness, Smith.... Hard hard bastards. Then you get people calling the likes of Shawcross and Barton 'hard-men'. They wouldn't have lived with those lot. Barton couldn't even live with Scott Brown ffs

Barton's a cunt with a short temper,  wouldn't call him hard at all.

This is probably what made Bob sign Souness...

Some good Terry Mac stories in Keegan's book, like when he was subbed off (as he often was) he'd run off backwards as if he was getting reeled in.
