Bigblueowl Posted January 12, 2021 Share Posted January 12, 2021 Complete nut job..... Get him in! Di canio as his dramatics coach and Joey Barton on head butting duties! We'd have the equivalent of the Krays! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marshy Posted January 12, 2021 Share Posted January 12, 2021 If there's any truth to it, I just wonder what DC thinks he brings to the table. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keane did a great job that year. Not quite accurate. 4 losses, but he won his last game, against West brom. But ok, I'll give you that he's better than Niall Quinn.. a guy who's never had a permanent mangers job and perhaps has never sought one. Glowing endorsement that.

I think it is accurate, the five consecutive games lost were across the league & league cup. I don’t dispute he won a game. My point was more that Sunderland were not the runaway best side in the league that year as you suggested. He might not be the right man for Wednesday but he did a good job that season.

Plus he’ll have strong contacts Why on earth would anyone respect him? Shouting your mouth off at every opportunity and trying to intimidate people doesn't earn you respect.

Arthur Bach Posted January 13, 2021 Share Posted January 13, 2021 Keanes tackle didn't end Haalands career. It wasn't even a serious injury. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And with his spats with Harry Arter and Jon Walters, we haven’t heard Keanes side. Maybe they were unprofessional/not pulling their weight. What about his time at Sunderland and Ipswich, any accounts of bullying there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Google 'Roy keane bully' and see how many accusations have been made against him. It seems unlikely that they would all be fabricated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
