Eddie Howe has revealed his admiration for Kevin Keegan and Newcastle United's Entertainers era came long before he was appointed as boss.
Howe's history session - where the current Toon star's were treated to clips of greats from the 1990s - last week at the training ground wasn't simply to generate soundbites and originated from his own upbringing in the game. It's been said many times that Keegan's Newcastle were the "second team" for fans and Howe appears to be one of them.
The Entertainers era culminated in 1996 when Keegan's side lost a 12-point lead after looking odds on to win the title with just 15 matches left before Manchester United's persistence handed them the trophy in the final week of the season.
