England shunned by Keegan

A year ago, Kevin Keegan was wrestling with the same selection dilemmas which face Sven-Goran Eriksson, his successor as England coach.

But, despite the match against Greece being played in Manchester, the Manchester City manager has no intention of watching his former players bid to secure World Cup qualification.

After watching City against Manchester United in a reserve match last night he was due to take training today before driving back to his home on Teesside to spend a long weekend with his family.

Keegan's PA at Maine Road confirmed: "Although there is training tomorrow, Kevin's taking a long weekend off and he will be at home in Middlesbrough."
