    I know and believe that Keano still needs some more experience but its kind of a unique position he finds himself in considering he has already won the championship on his first attempt ! I am not so sure its the right move anymore as he has already proved himself in the championship by talking a side from last place to eventual champions. Maybe another mid table or lower prem side was a better option.

    Keane is a scumbag who loves & thinks of no one but himself

    Only a matter of time before he starts slating Ipswich in public like he has done with EVERY team he's been with

    Man U
    Ireland
    Sunderland
    Celtic
    etc

    He's a clown

    Hope Ipswich go down next season

    Love the way you stuck in etc after that list even though there are no more to be added. It was as if in your head you were about to write down a really really long list of former Keane employers that he's slated but realised that when you got to four the list had ended so you stuck in an etc to make it appear longer. Excellent usage of the word etc.

    Cobh Ramblers
    Nottingham Forest

    which makes the list a substantial 50% longer

    although, as far as I remember, Keane has never slated either club

    When did Spurs go top or even 6th for that matter?



    They havent, I never said they did. I was using it as an example of how it teams with good squads can find themselves in relegation.

    Exactly. Which is why they aren't on the list! Etc my arse.

    Did he slate Celtic?

    Did he slate Ireland? Not to my knowledge, he slated the management, but not the players.

    In fact, he was of the opinion that the Ireland players could do quite well in a World Cup, and should not just go to make up the numbers.

    I'm just delighted he didn't get the Forest job when it was available in January. He's demonstrated that both as a person and a manger, he's about as stable as a Russian nuclear reactor. He'll probably take Ipswich up alright, but then dump them in a couple of years, sighting ''personal reasons'' :rolleyes:

    i'd say ipswich would be more than happy with that result.

    what do you want him to do? stay there for life?

    just about every manager in the history of the game who doesn't get sacked leaves for "personal reasons" be it personal gain or otherwise

    it's nothing but personal reasons _always_

    what other reason is there?

    Setanta just showed the latest score for Ipswich during the Liverpool match.. :rolleyes:
    TV stations will show what the people want to see and there's more people in this country interested in Roy Keane than any football team bar maybe Man Utd and Liverpool.

    I know I texted a couple of friends the Ipswich score. Just as the Swedish would if Henrik Larsson took charge of an English club. Trust me.

    He's unique. He's the biggest name in this country. Live with it.
