In February 1992, Newcastle United appointed Kevin Keegan as
manager. Keegan, the two-time European Footballer of the Year, had
played for the club between 1982 and 1984. He had been out of
football since. His appointment as manager was as big a shock as
when he arrived as a player. Exactly four years after Keegan's
return to the North east of England, Newcastle were top of the
Premiership, nine points clear of Manchester United, having played
a game less. It would turn out to be one of the most memorable
seasons in the modern history of English football. Keegan's side
would play a unique brand of football and become known as the
Entertainers. They would take part in a game at Anfield that became
widely recognised as the best the Premier League has ever seen.
Keegan would also famously square up to Sir Alex Ferguson. Touching
Distance tells the story of that remarkable season, through the
highs and the lows of a truly dramatic campaign. It also traces the
seeds of the revival back to Keegan's first spell as a player, to
his return and the dramatic impact he had on a football club, its
supporters and an entire region. Touching Distance talks to the
people who made it happen, the players, the coaching staff and the
board and relives a truly momentous period for the club. It is a
story of hopes and dreams and when, for Newcastle United, anything
seemed possible.
