ALT Social media post in tribute to Kevin Keegan from Sir Kenny Dalglish reading: Very saddened to hear of the passing of Kevin Keegan. Kevin was one of the very best players of his generation and wore Liverpool’s famous number 7 shirt with great distinction. His achievements on the pitch were exceptional, but he was also a wonderful person and a genuine gentleman. Kevin’s qualities didn’t stop when he finished playing. He went on to become an outstanding manager, and what he built at Newcastle United brought belief, excitement and pride back to the football club. He gave so many people wonderful memories and his teams played the game in a way that supporters loved to watch. Football has lost one of its true greats. My thoughts are with Jean, Laura, Sarah and all of Kevin’s family and friends at this very sad time. Rest in peace, Kevin. YNWA
