OTB Football · Mark Lawrenson pays tribute to Kevin Keegan | OFF THE BALL BREAKFAST · 21 Jul 2026 podcast

And he was actually quite a small guy, but he was strong.

He was very, very, very strong.

So there's a story about him which is 99% certain.

I was playing for Liverpool.

It was a Friday night FA Cup.

First time ever the FA Cup had been played on a Friday night.

We were playing Newcastle and Kevin was playing.

And so there's Waddle and all sorts of players playing for Newcastle.

And

We were playing a game and I think we were four up.

We'd take them apart, basically.

And he was getting frustrated and all those kind of things.

Anyway, so I'm playing like one of the centre-backs with Hansen and the ball gets played between the two of us.

So I've turned to go and get it.

And then the next thing, Kevin was probably three or four yards in front of me.

Well, obviously being a lot younger, I caught him and I caught him quite, when I say I caught him, I caught up with him and then like went further than him and give the ball back to Bruce, to Bruce Grabilar.

So Kevin went into the, when the game finished and everything, he went into the visitor's room and Arthur Cox was the manager, right?

Kevin came in, took his boots off and threw them at the wall.

And Arthur Cox says, what are you doing that for?

He said, I'm done.
