Keegan: I have £250m to spend...
Kevin Keegan was in a mood for jokes after Sunday's Tyne-Wear derby win for the Magpies.
Keegan said of billionaire owner Mike Ashley: "He said there is 250million to spend in the transfer window. I think that's what he said.
"Or he may have said, 'I am going out on the town tonight'. I think it was the second.
"No, I am just joking. He is pleased and I am pleased for him.
"Terry McDermott just turned to me with five minutes to go when they were singing and he said, 'It's like the old days, Gaffer'."
