Touching Distance

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 but had been out of football since. His appointment as manager was as big a shock as when he arrived as a player. 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 when, for Newcastle United, anything seemed possible.
