Roy Keane

Honestly doesn't even seem angry about Utd losing anymore.

Still reckons they'll beat Spurs.

Didn't he say that he doesn't even support United anymore, he basically said United are just another team he's played for and that watching them lose doesn't ruin his day from what I can remember from watching that short clip.
 
United could be in the non league and I'll still watch.

That isn't a challenge though, United.

He says that but how worked up he gets about the players over the years suggests otherwise. Like us all its just resignation how poor everything is

My first was Thornley. I’m sure I’ve heard he had a players car cheap too :lol:
 
Think it is one of the Thornley brothers

but I’m not sure it’s the one that was any good at football!!!
Ah yeah, I think you’re right.
I listened to a podcast with him (the physio one) where he was bragging he used to organise the Xmas parties and nights out. Clearly left a lasting impression on Keane :lol:

Edit: just checked the under cosh podcast, you’re right, it was rod thornley. And it was Ronaldo’s car he had.

Yeah.

From my local knowledge of him, might have been classed as a bit of a whopper but then he fitted in quite well to the local area

Not listened to that podcast. Will have to in due course but I get the feeling that it might annoy me
 

haha...brilliant Keano rant

use to get massage myself before hand but only the legs

funny though....our physio after about a year decided to come out with the lads and hang out like he was a player not a masseuse
 
I know who Roy Keane is talking about. Its Sunderland masseur Micky Holland. Nicknamed Harvey Micks, because he'd come in and sell knocked off gear to the Sunderland lads, and buy their cars and sell them on. He was at Sunderland for years, and Keane sacked him for being a smart arse and the players stooge. He got a job at Newcastle and at the end of the famous 5-1 game, went over to the Sunderland fans and kissed the badge. The Sunderland fans hadnt got a clue who the feck he was, but he felt he was important enough.

In fairness to Rod Thornley, he grew up around United, played the same, had a brother who played for United and was mates with most of the lads before he was even in a masseur. I'd imagine he'd be good for morale. I cant imagine it was him Keane was talking about, though. Ferguson was famous for not even allowing Mike Phelan and Rene Maulenstein in for his team talks and around the players before kick off. He wanted his voice to be the one they heard. I cant imagine he'd have had the fecking masseur all over the shop.
