BREAKING NEWS: Newcastle manager Kevin Keegan sacked after Ashley summit
By Sportsmail Reporter
Last updated at 1:07 PM on 02nd September 2008
Newcastle manager Kevin Keegan has been fired after holding a meeting with club owner Mike Ashley.
The 57-year-old, who walked away from the Toon in 1997, had been called to a meeting with Ashley this morning.
Rumours began to circulate early this morning after Keegan's hoped for three or four major signings failed to materialise as the transfer window closed at midnight on Monday.
Sportsmail online understands that Keegan did not take training this morning and that police have begun arriving at St James' Park and the club's training ground fearing a backlash from fans.

Crunch time: Keegan's days look numbered
The Newcastle manager was called into a 2pm meeting yesterday which club insiders described as ‘very important but not related to transfer business’ and it is believed a heated discussion took place, with managing director Derek Llambias making it clear they were not happy.
The situation has been coming to a head with Keegan stressing he needs more players, yet apparently he has been told that every player in his squad has a price

Mike Ashley was wearing a King Kev shirt on Saturday. Its a stupid sacking as they geordies fans will be pleased with Keegan regardless of how crap they do, if he wants to strip the clubs assets, then keeping keegan would have been a good move IMO.
