I reckon most of the “regular” posters on here can recite “Barnard, Foxton, Barker, Deere, Welbourne, Atkin, Kerr, Keegan, Cassidy, Heath, Davidson” (or similar).
Keegan was just one of that band of brothers who, although they never won a trophy, are fondly remembered. However, he was the one who went on to great things. So in many respects it’s about what he did after he left the Iron rather than what he achieved whilst he was here.
I would agree, Terry Heath, Nigel Cassidy and probably Steve Deere were probably ahead of KK in the movers and shakers of that team.
Was he an England legend who played for Scunthorpe, or a Scunthorpe legend who played for Liverpool, Hamburg, Newcastle and captained England?
