I think he will be just what the club need. Has a good no nonsense attitude, served under Clough at Forest, a decent player with United and Celtic,
and has past managerial experience.

Roy Keane,

You can get fuc*ed.

Thanks

His psychopath tendencies usually ends in self destruct, as happened at Sunderland and Ipswich.

Best where he is, acting the part of confrontational madman used to scare other Sky pundits to death.

So no thanks

Not for me. I read his book and he is one arrogant so and so. I get it "he's a winner" etc but he'd be here two seasons max before being sacked or chucking his toys and leaving.

As for his punditry, I quite like it. He's a wee bit grumpy but he does say what most of us think and adds some controversy to the normal "yes men"

I think Barnes would chin him

There’s a reason he’s not in management and hasn’t been for a while

Good at dog walking, though and during a world cup let's not forget.

You have it in one Pstotto ... Keane is definitely a "Celt"

Wouldnt want him in the same country let alone the same town.

A thug and a bully, and an absolute arsehole. I’d be embarrassed to have him anywhere near the club. Couldn’t think of anyone LESS likely to be on the radar should we find ourselves losing SD.

He could bring in Jamie Redknapp as his assistant.

A considered response and absolutely spot on!!!

Roy Keane would make Ben Mee cry..

keane is a gob*****, no other way to describe him. he would have no longevity in him because he has constantly flitted about in the game and not achieved much because of it.
he is okay on tv for a witty quote, but that's where it ends. file under has been.

I've tried to think of a constructive sentence as to why I wouldn't want Keane as our Manager, unfortunately I can't think of one. I can only one up with one word- "Physco".

The reason why hes not managed again is that it far more lucrative talking shite and being a "pundit" than actually working for a living

And while he was down, Guddy & Brady would keep running all over him.
Until they got injured, anyway.

No thanks, I love him as a pundit though.
I'd look at Barnsleys manager if he keeps it up, shocked what he's doing their with that squad, took them from near the bottom to fighting for the playoffs and the form team in the league.

Is a "Physco" a "Psychotic Physio" ..... Or a supermarket with a personality disorder


I think you meant Psycho beddie sorry couldn't resist

My goodness ........... I i was to write what i want to say about the Tea Boy i think i would get a ban from here .

Again one of these jaw dropping moments, Keane = waster

Yeah, he could double up with Joey !!!!!

Match made in loony land.

I'm treating this thread as a wind-up.

Simple answer No. His managerial record is poor.
He leaves clubs in a mess, just look where Sunderland and Ipswich are now. There is a mythology about Keane that being tough and uncompromising are the qualities of a good manager. For me he lacks those player management skills and maybe he is unable to see a bigger picture.

Give me Darcey Bussell over Roy Keane anyday.

Great player. Great pundit. Average manager.

I'd knock him out in a Breath.

Right winger has a downer on Mee

A bit left field but I'd take John Terry .He may need a more experienced assistant to get the best from him.For that I'd go for Chris Houghton

He’s not exactly been much good as a manager in the past , also been out the game too long .

You could try Tic Tacs Tim ... or at the very least Listerine for breath like that

Great TV pundit and that's about it

Is he that great as a pundit?

He’s a bit of a one trick pony and I’m not sure I’ve heard him provide anything insightful.

Bonus points for regularly winding up Redknapp though.

I like him because he is off the wall and speaks his mind unlike the other pc zombies who bore me to death, although I don't mind Souness

Roy Keane is no waster. He dragged himself up (I know because I lived near him when he was growing up) to become a great player, mainly by his own single-minded drive and commitment. He had no silver spoon handed to him and struggled for everything he achieved. He has his opinions and sticks to them as in the fall out with Mick McCarthy, in which many people believe he was correct. He will never make a good manager because he sets his standards too high and gets easily frustrated when players don't have the skills comparative to their earnings. He also lacks the ability to improve players and is not given to an 'arm around the shoulder' approach in the dressing room. He is like all of us made up of many characteristics and the generalizations made here about Celts, tea boys and Psychos etc are a reflection of a mindset that is at best unsympathetic and careless and at worst racist.
As for anyone including Barnes and the rest of the queue attempting to chin him, put a fleet of ambulances on standby.

Reckon I’d back a lot of our squad in that bizarre hypothetical situation.

Nahhhhhhhhhhh i won't bite , whatever Marty

Great fishing and a nice haul
