Putting my opinion on Keane aside saw an interview with some FAI fella on Sky Sports new. When asked if Keane would play the friendlies he said he didn't know! And people say the FAI have improved!!

I think is quite normal, managers unpopular with the fans are oftenQuote:

Its uttterly stupid anyway as by booing your own player you are booing
your own team, he is part of the team and teams have to play as a unit.
I think the people who said they would boo their own team have completely
lost the plot, this is pretty much evident from some of their other post
anyway, and I think it proves their thinking is distorted.
How can a team play when there will be boos when the ball is passed
to one of their players? - Madness :confused:
I think some people should put their thinking caps on :rolleyes:
I have to say that I'd be surprised if RMK is booed by any of the support. However, I'd expect the "welcome" to be less than unanimous. I for one won't be throwing the rose petals onto the field to escort him back...Quote:

We had just blown our chance of qualifying after two games.
it is a so nice to find a board like this incredible one after the boards.ie have closed the discussion down (like Franco!!).
I wept and cried so much when i heard that roy is coming back to play for our country. Now we can puts that terrible little Japanese Island behind us and play some magnificant futball(on the ground).
With roy on our team, even that he is not far from being retired, he can take the place of the terrible Mr Holland who plays such negative futball that it is a discusting site to watch. (Maybe Mr Kerr was joking when he included Holland on the side, he always lauging after the game).
With such an incredible player like Roy we must have surely the chance to to go Germany. And when we are drinking and smiling there in 2006, everyone will say " oh we always have wanted Roy in the team"
But dont worry, when Mr Keane makes his first game, the people who are angry to watch him in the green gersey must bring lots of flags with this mesage of angry and maybe a pigs head to throw on the pitch so he can understand the fantastic pain the supporters have sufford with his not here.
So did I. Probably not for the same reasons though.Quote:

I am absolutely thrilled Roy Keane is back..he is a fantastic player and will once again take us through to the World Cup,of course with the help of the rest of the team and our brave management team..i was not a big fan of Brian Kerr up until now but he has proved himself in my book..anyone that boo's Roy at the next International match home or away is just ignorant..Welcome back legend..you were MISSED :)
Anyone that welcomes him back with open arms... well, you deserve what you get. Precisely nothing.Quote:

Come on Ireland!
:) PP
dont worry, I will attend the first match at the landsdown roads with the banner to demonstrate what i think of him, and throw abuse hen he has the ball (with the pigs head and a noesy bell if i am allowed ).
So he can understand the fantastic emotional pain I have injured from the 2002 peroid until we said 'bye bye Mick' !! ( the donkey who did not count how many player another team have on the pitch. And I must hold responsible for all this events )
It would be nice twist into his back if mr keane could sit on the bench for 2 or 3 matches in the beginning for his re educations.
but after the first match I will be shouting without a false face for roy and my country as I want to go to the world cup in 2006 and have a nice time. And so we can play some magnificant futball (on the ground) .
Without the likes Holland who managed to score a goals a the world cup, when even himself and the other 80,000 peoples around him, the newspapers,media, everyone, were in shock that such a strange events could happen (have you remembered his face with the disbeief?) we can manage a better mid field and pass the ball to a better position (on the ground) with Roy Keane and maybe not back to the goal keeper or somewhere silly every time..

The only games he missed for Ireland were low priority games, but I
am sure you would have perfered he played those games, got injured
and missed important games of the competition. How pathetic. :rolleyes:
Welcome to the real world, I how you find it to your likeing.
Thick Mick sent him home no doubt about that.
And if the story is to be believed Thick Mick agreed he would miss
those games, yet I assume you still have your tongue in his warmer
places. ;)
Why don't you grow and support your country like a man, not an infant. :(
There's no such thing as a 'low priority' game when it comes to playing for Ireland. Playing for your country is the greatest honour a player can have.Quote:

Your having a laugh criticising someone elses grammar. There is five grammar mistakes in your above sentence alone! Your posts are without doubt the hardest to read on this forum because of the amount of mistakes.Quote:

Also you say you don't blame Roy for the World Cup, you blame Mick. Why are you going to throw a pig's head at Roy? (very original by the way)
One more personal attack in this thread and I'm adding it to my collection...
Mick's attitude to the World Cup was that it was a free holiday.Quote:

I bet that statement turned Roys stomach.
When it became clear the Mick was basically there as a tourist I
think Roy has had enough.
Even half Micks luggage failed to turn up - the man is a Joke.
Andy Reid (Forest) described the return of Roy Keane as
a "massive boost", "he is a world class player and the more of
them you get in the squad the better".
I wish more of the so called 'fans' on this site (they are not
fans in my eyes) shared his excellent attitude, he is obviously
a sensible and level headed fellow.
Well said Andy :)
Well said Andy...
And well said tricky_colour ;)
I read this article in the Newspaper and was delighted one of the senior players has come out and said this..Hopefully more will follow soon...
I presume John O'Shea and Liam Miller will be ok with laying alongside Keane.
:eek: they're gay? i had no idea :D :DQuote:
