Anyway, here's what I think will be the last part of the set:
Firstly, here's the man himself! Keegan was released as Newcastle manager, but this customer wanted the official tracksuit, rather than the plain one Corinthian produced. And looking at the results, who can blame him!!
I do like putting the initials on when doing coaches and managers!
Unless I'm mistaken, McDermott was KK's assistant at the time, and wore the away kit for the team picture, which I think is why this one was requested. (He actually played for Newcastle in the 70s- long before this kit!)
It was one of those repaints that I had to think pretty hard about, and involved some 'on shirt mixing' but I loved how it turned out, as did the buyer!
Last but not least, Keith Gillespie he wasn't part of the first set, just because he's harder to come by than the others, I think! I've done this kit loads now!
