Colinjb Posted 7 October, 2014 Share Posted 7 October, 2014 His chilling assault on Haaland is surely one of the most despicable pre-meditated acts in the history of the game. Ending someone's career after they dared suggest you were faking an injury. Not out of proportion, oh no. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/teams/manchester-united/11144315/Roy-Keane-insists-he-has-no-regrets-over-horror-tackle-on-Alf-Inge-Haaland.html Yet I am yet to meet a Manchester United fan who will criticise him for it.

Except he didn't end his career, I believe Haalands career was ended due to his other knee. Don't forget Haaland played for Norway 4 days after that tackle.

Which reminds me, does the bearded clam mention his part in United's hilarious 6-3 defeat at The Dell? Getting himself sent off with two bookings in the first 30 mins? 1st one was a trademark Man U one for arguing with the ref, 2nd one a trademark Keane over the top tackle. Or how he showed a distinct lack of class and respect for SFC and it's fans after Man U effectively sent us down in the last game of the season, goading fans with a thumbs down sign and big grin? Loved the prawn sarnie rant at the Plastic Man U fans though!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sadoldgit Posted 10 October, 2014 Author Share Posted 10 October, 2014 Bless him, certainly a man out of time. Perhaps someone ought to explain to him that it is 2014 and that things have moved on a bit. Then again, I expect he would just hit them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turkish Posted 10 October, 2014 Share Posted 10 October, 2014 Some great quotes, i find him very amusing and honest, even if he is a bit of a c*nt “It might seem strange but you find out about characters when you look to see who’s in charge of the music. A young lad might want to put on the latest sound; an older player might say: ‘I’m the senior player’ and put himself in charge. But I noticed none of the players [at Sunderland] were in charge of the music and this was a concern for me. A member of staff was in charge. I was looking at him thinking: ‘I hope someone nails him here.’ The last song before the players went on to the pitch was ‘Dancing Queen’ by Abba. What really worried me was that none of the players – not one – said: ‘Get that **** off.’ They were going out to play a match, men versus men, testosterone levels were high. You’ve got to hit people at pace. ****in’ ‘Dancing Queen.’ It worried me. I didn’t have as many leaders as I thought.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sadoldgit Posted 10 October, 2014 Author Share Posted 10 October, 2014 Just read a piece by Dwight Yorke when he was at Sunderland when Keane went into meltdown. Later when Keane left, Yorke sent Keane a text saying he was sorry about how it had ended up and wishing Keane all the best. Keane responded with f**k you.

KelvinsRightGlove Posted 10 October, 2014 Share Posted 10 October, 2014 Where did you see that? I really can't remember. It flashed up somewhere. Something about GNev having a 'button mushroom' and Nicky Butt having a monster. I havn't read the book, so it may well be fake. In fact, I suspect this may actually be fake. I'm not brave enough to google it on the work computer either tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wade Garrett Posted 12 October, 2014 Share Posted 12 October, 2014 Does he mention Justin Edinburgh goading him in the FA Cup Final with 'come on then, come on then, you f*cking Irish c*nt'? He did nothing. He tried to whack Shearer and missed, leaving Shearer laughing at him as he got his red card. He was a great player, but is nothing more than a playground bully picking on the little kids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember hearing an interview with Keith Gillespie about the little set two he and Shearer had whilst on a preseason tour when he offered Shearer outside and promptly got ironed out, said it was a big mistake, he was a tough man was shearer, reckon he'd have done Keane.

Keane doesn't seem to think he is the hardest physically. I listened to the full Football Focus interview with Kilbane and just think man is a superb. When you compare his interviews with a typical footballer like Wilshere, Lallana etc. I actually want to hear what he says as he doesn't appear to say anything other than what he thinks. And he has such anger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
