Statement on behalf of Terry McDermott and his family
We are heartbroken by the loss of our dear friend, Kevin Keegan.
Kevin was so much more than a teammate. He was a lifelong friend whose warmth, loyalty, humour and passion for football touched so many lives. The memories they shared, both on and off the pitch, will be treasured forever.
Although Terry’s dementia means he is no longer able to express his feelings publicly, we know how much Kevin meant to him and how deeply this loss would have affected him.
Our thoughts and prayers are with Jean, Laura, Sarah and all of Kevin’s family at this incredibly sad time. We hope they find comfort in the love and respect being shown for Kevin by so many people.
Kevin was one of football’s true greats, but to Terry he was, above all, a cherished friend.
He will be greatly missed and never forgotten. #nufc #lfc
@SkySports_Keith Proper gutting this only saw him at the talkin recently and appeared to be in good health considering and was in top spirits. That just shows the measure of the man must of been fighting hard behind the public eye. Proper gutted for everyone in his family and extended Nufc family
@NCSL1892 @NUFC Everyone keeps forgetting we are simply not a willing seller, we don’t need the money and we certainly as a business don’t sell assets that devalue the squad and ability to compete.
Personally I want to see the back of the lad but only if we can replace with equal talent.
