Roy Keane

[Seagull73]

Brian Kidd is going in with Keane, so that's where the experience will come in.

I'm not sure about this one. Keane will not like having to work with players of 'inferior' ability to him, that's the impression he has always given you anyway.

Sunderland are in a mess now, and I'm not sure his style of brash, egotistical and military type management is really what they need right now. Sunderland fans, however, will probably just be pleased with a big-name boss, much like we were with Liam Brady.

I have a funny feeling he is going to do quite well.

I have the feeling his team is going to have plenty of sendings off. I think he'll be a shit manager btw.

 

[Stinkers Bridge]

What can possibly go wrong? Apparently he has got the following:-

1 Skills Ball
1 Set of Skills cards
1 Stopwatch
1 DVD

oh, and a squad that's slightly rusty.

I wonder how this natural born winner will react if some of his charges turn up for a big game pissed, as he has. What a WINNER.

promotion, stay up 2 seasons and then get relegated? I think Sunderland fans will be happier with that than we were

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

More along the lines of fight everyone and fail out with most people included your own fans

Éanna Hardwicke will play Roy Keane and Steve Coogan is set to play Mick McCarthy in upcoming Irish feature film 'Saipan', which depicts the infamous World Cup fallout of 2002.
The film’s title comes from the so-called Saipan incident, when Keane was captaining the Republic of Ireland ahead of the FIFA World Cup finals.
While preparing on the tiny island, the former Manchester United star had a very public disagreement with manager Mick McCarthy, resulting in him leaving the camp.
The fallout between the pair and the media frenzy that ensued will be the main focus of the film, which is being made in association with Screen Ireland and Northern Ireland Screen.
