The boy said that when his neckchain fell to the ground, Mr Keane said: "Give it to me, I will get it fixed for you and you can get it back tomorrow." The footballer suggested he would get the chain welded - but the youth told him silver could not be welded.

 

Mr Keane allegedly then smirked at the youth and said: "Oooh, it's silver, is it?"

 

Mr Keane admits approaching the youth about an insult that was made to him but denies breaking the chain. He has been unable to explain the damage to the chain.

Fuckin' hell, what happened to the chain? What a cliffhanger this story is...

When Mr Keane had walked off around the corner, out of sight, the boy turned to his friend and said: "What a wanker", prompting Mr Keane to reappear again.

Dog-wanking twat!

 

 

Roy Keane has fired a broadside at Newcastle United in his explosive new book – and described the Stadium of Light derby win with Sunderland as his greatest day as Black Cats boss.

 

Keane’s new autobiography The Second Half has hit shelves today and the former Manchester United man written about coming to St James’ Park with the Red Devils in the 2004-5 season – and accused the Magpies of being “arrogant”.

 

He has also issued a withering verdict on the atmosphere at Newcastle, saying it wasn’t an intimidating place for him to play.

 

“I always had a bit of hassle against Newcastle. I’d been sent off twice up there. I’d had my battles with (Alan) Shearer and Rob Lee,” he writes.

 

“I always thought they were an arrogant bunch, for a club that had won f*** all. We always got decent results at St James’ Park; it wasn’t a bad place to play. But as for the Toon Army, the Geordies and the hostile reception – I never fell for all that crap.”

While he is dismissive about Newcastle in his book, Keane is more fulsome about the Tyne-Wear derbies that he managed in.

 

And he rates the 2008 win – Sunderland’s first on home soil for 30 years – as the high-point of his time at the Stadium of Light.

 

“It was the first time we’d beaten Newcastle at home in thirty-odd years. It was electric – the tension. (Djibril) Cisse scored, and Kieran (Richardson). The level of player we had now had gone up since I’d come to the club. We played really well. I think it was my happiest day at Sunderland.”

 

Keane’s insight into a St James’ Park derby in 2008 is also interesting. The Black Cats lost and Keane felt there were “mind games” at play.

 

“We were a goal down after four minutes – a Michael Owen header,” he said.

 

“There were mind games going on before the match. The police got us there three hours before kick off – players got bored, testosterone levels are high; it’s too long to wait. Jonny (Evans) and Phil Bardsley were injured, so didn’t play. They were a big loss.”

 

Keane’s The Second Half is out today.
