Roy Keane on ITV for England match...Disgraceful

[mightyWBA]

They've just asked Roy Keane(studio" expert") about alleged racist John Terry's current situation.
This is the same Roy Keane sent home from the World Cup in 2002 for saying this to his manager.
"You were a crap player, you are a crap manager, the only reason I have any dealings with you is that somehow you are manager of my country and you're not even Irish, you English c**t. You can stick the World Cup up your b*****ks." Roy Keane to Mick McCarthy in Saipan
Hmmmm....

Keano...........brilliant player.

Yeah Roy Keane was a very smart player but this doesn't always translate very well to real life. You cannot say any professional player who played in the world cup quarter finals is "crap". And remember what he said about the Man United players before he was pushed out? Remember what he said about Rio Ferdinand. What a gobsh1te. He only knows football.

He was a crap manager, is a crap critic, and the only reason we have any dealings with him is that somehow he is on national tv in your country and he's not even English.

he does have lovely thighs though !

"And with so many medals too. Top man, top player and a leader".


You are kidding? You've got to be? Surely that's ironic pathos?

A man who stands over another player after crippling him, shouting obscenities and glorying in it is neither a leader nor a top man - he is a thug who should have been banned for a long, long time. To then admit it in his book belies a staggering arrogance or a staggering stupidity, not to mention his lies in same book.

Having said that, John Terry is no paragon of virtue either. I don't expect footballers to be snowy white, (he's a much better guitarist than any footballer), but I expect better standards than those of Messrs Keane and Terry.
