A club in real meltdown it seems. The owner is being hounded to sell out after the fans have turned on him for undermining Keegan. Keegan has deserted rather than try and get better conditions to work under - even though I agree with his stance, it does feel like he quit the club a little too easily.
Meanwhile Kinnear is appointed, who hasn't managed for a good few years. Probably not a bad manager in his day but this surely has to be too difficult a task. He was second choice after Venables who was not keen on a short term contract measured in games.
It is hard to think of worse conditions. As for the players they are still getting paid, are usually fairly resilient to instability - after all they are contractors not permanent fixtures. But this level of disruption even has got through to pitch level. All very sad for what is a great footballing region.
