I'm a Man United fan but I enjoyed watching ketsbaia like I enjoyed watching Gus Poyet and Stuart Pearce, guys that play with passion. "note to Berba" ... Good luck Temuri.

Apparently when he signed for Newcastle he headed over to the Metro Centre to buy himself a pair of new boots. He was amazed to find out afterwards that he would get them free from his sponsor as well as all sorts of ggodies he could only have dreamt of previously. A very humble player, who never assumed anything. Good luck, yer mad dafty!

As a Liverpool fan, I too remember Ketsbaia from when he scored that last gasp goal to qualify for the Champions League. I think Newcastle went on to play Barcelona in the group stages and Asprilla scored a hat-trick against them with his trademark Cartwheel celebration each time.
Newcastle was pretty much everyone's 2nd fav team in the 90s.

Unlike a certain Mr Shearer, it is good to see an ex toon forward having a go at management and making a success of it. On the pitch he was capable of the sublime to the ridiculous. This was largely because he just put his head down and ran directly at goal. Often described as a headless chicken. However it worked to fantastic effect against Everton in the 98 FA cup semi final when he scored two and set up Shearer for another. I remember at least one of them squirmed through the keepers hands and the Sun headline was "How did that Ketsbai?"

"why did he celebrate like that"

I think it was just frustration at the fact that Dalglish wouldn't play him. So when he did get on and scored a last minute winner to end a run of eight league games without a win he just went nuts.

Don't say the "D" word... That man should have been taken to court for what he did to Newcastle.

I'm a Dundee fan and wow, what a fantastic player would probably still go a good job at Dens now. He can be our next manager
