Wolfcastle Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 2 minutes ago, Thiago said: Expect fireworks. Of the few stories I heard about him it's that he struggles to relate to players below his level. I think he struggles to relate to people and is a borderline psychopath. Bet its like he didn't do s**t at Ipswich. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tsunami Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 If Keane goes back his head will explode dealing with football at that level. He judges every player by his own standards, he’ll end up decking someone in training. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wandy Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 If Keane gets the job then I hope they give him loads of money to spend. The amount they wasted under him the first time was delightful. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fantail Breeze Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 I like how they completely idolise people for very little reason but also re-write history as they go. https://amp.theguardian.com/football/2008/dec/04/sunderland-roy-keane “Sunderland sit 18th in the Premier League, having lost five of their last six games. Keane, whose contract was due to expire at the end of the season, was booed after their most recent match, a 4-1 defeat to Bolton on Saturday, and admitted afterwards that he had doubts as to whether he should be in the job.” A bloke who took charge of them for 18 months being a hero because he might shout at people. A bit like Cattermole, absolutely dogshit but they love him because of a perceived, but misplaced, tough man attitude. All of this perfectly fits for a team of cloggers in the lower leagues though, maybe they’re not in the wrong league after all. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
et tu brute Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 (edited) Keane, well that is a total clusterfuck of an appointment if ever I saw one. Not a good policy running the club on the whim of the support. Long may it continue Edited February 2, 2022 by et tu brute Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danh1 Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 Surprised he’s willing to work under a DOF. Got the potential to be an absolute disaster, here’s hoping anyways. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pokerprince2004 Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 (edited) Awful appointment. Has only managed 2 clubs and was sacked both times (11 years ago too). Shame as I like his punditry on sky so will miss the arguements with Carragher, Neville, Richards, Redknapp, etc Just cant see why they wouldn't go for Neil Warnock who has gotten several teams promoted and would definitely do a decent job there.

Fantail Breeze Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 2 minutes ago, Ketsbaia said: I reckon he'd get them up, like. Hope they look elsewhere. Based on what? He’s not been a manager for 11 years, has only had two previous jobs and failed miserably at his most recent one. His only success a solitary promotion with the mackems from the Championship 14 years ago, but then hounded out six months later. Makes less sense than when we appointed Kinnear, he had only been out of work for four years. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ketsbaia Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 If he's mellowed a bit with age, there's something there I think. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dokko Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 Kinnear was a joke, Keane will have respect tge moment he walks in from both the players and fans. With Defoe coming in as well they could easy ride promotion on the buzz of both men coming in. That's all it takes down there. It could be a game changer for them, or it could all come apart. An interesting watch either way for the neutral. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

midds Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 Keane would be a timebomb waiting to go off at any point over the next year or so imo. Not saying it would be a bad appointment, it could go very very well for them in the short term tbh. I just think he's massively volatile and it could end at any point as soon as he loses his shit. Maybe they're only interested in the short term? Meh, we'll see. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joey Linton Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 Don't they have some fantastic set up where the manager has no say over the players who are signed? What could possibly go wrong appointing Keane into that situation? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was only last season at half time when he said on air he'd be punching de Gea in the dressing room because of one of the goals he let in. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The days of just shouting at footballers and telling them to run faster, work harder or that they’re shit are long gone. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
