"It's not something to go to the barricades over [the chips]. But all the lads were pissed off. And guess what happened after Moyes left and Ryan Giggs took over?

"Moyes has been gone about 20 minutes, we're on the bikes warming up for the first training session and one of the lads says: 'You know what? We've got to get on to Giggsy. We've got to get him to get us our fucking chips back.'"

Some classic Keegan:

>'England can end the millennium as it started - as the greatest football nation in the world.'

>'The 33 or 34-year-olds will be 36 or 37 by the time the next World Cup comes around, if they're not careful.'

>'Shaun Wright-Phillips has got a big heart. It's as big as him, which isn't very big, but it's bigger'

>'The good news for Nigeria is that they're two-nil down very early in the game'

>'Argentina won't be at Euro 2000 because they're from South America.'

>'They're the second best team in the world, and there's no higher praise than that.'

>'Goalkeepers aren't born today until they're in their late twenties or thirties.'

>'You can't do better than go away from home and get a draw.'

>'The substitute is about to come on - he's a player who was left out of the starting line-up today.'

>'The tide is very much in our court now.'

"My biggest mentor is myself because I’ve had to study, so that’s been my biggest influence."

>"When we have the football everybody’s a player. The difference with us is that when we have the ball we play with 11 men, other teams play with 10 and a goalkeeper."

"The problem with being a manager is it’s like trying to build an aircraft while it is flying."

>"I believe a young player will run through a barbed wire fence for you. An older player looks for a hole in the fence."

"I’ve always worked along the statistic, that if you can dominate the game with the ball you have a 79% chance of winning a game of football."

>"You train dogs, I like to educate players."

"Joe Allen is one of the most courageous players I’ve seen."

>"I’ve always said that you can live without water for many days, but you can’t live for a second without hope."

John McKay longtime USC Trojans and Tampa Bay Bucs coach

>Following a game in which O. J. Simpson received over 30 hand offs, McKay was asked "Why are you giving the ball to Simpson so often?" He replied, "Why not? It's not heavy, and he doesn't belong to a union."
>On recruiting his son to play football at USC: "I had a rather distinct advantage. I slept with his mother."
>"Well, we didn't block, but we made up for it by not tackling."
>McKay was asked what he thought of his team's "execution." He replied, "I'm all for it."
>"Three or four plane crashes and we're in the playoffs."
>After receiving harsh criticism from the media about McKay's coaching skills in the NFL, McKay replies "You guys don't know the difference between a football and a bunch of bananas." In the next interview, members of the media left bananas for McKay. He then replied, "You guys don't know the difference between a football and a Mercedes Benz."

“I don’t see the problem with footballers taking their shirts off after scoring a goal? They enjoy it and the young ladies enjoy it too. I suppose thats one of the main reasons women come to football games, to see the young men take their shirts off. Of course they’d have to go and watch another game because my lads are as ugly as sin.” – Ian Holloway
