Martin O'Neill and Roy Keane involved in car crash!!!

Sorry can't find the thread.

A real car crash not a metaphorical one!

Ireland manager Martin O'Neill and his assistant Roy Keane were involved in a crash on the M50 motorway earlier this evening.

The FAI said in a tweet: "The Republic of Ireland management team were involved in collision on M50 earlier.
"Vehicle was rear ended in traffic. Have returned to hotel and been seen by team doctor."
Sources have indicated that it was former Aston Villa boss Roy Keane behind the wheel at the time of the crash.

Hopefully no Injuries, only a minor collision according to the news. Some awful driving on that m50, I drive it every day and the amount of tossers not paying attention is unreal

I'm struggling to decide whether to give tricky huge credit for the self deprecating wit in again misspelling O'Neill's surname in a thread title, or whether he's just a bit thick. I'll go with the former. Stroke of genius if so.

If intended as a metaphor for their spell in charge of the team, it could well be a prophetic stroke of genius. I hope not.

Spare a thought for the person who rear-ended that car and sees Roy Maurice Keane emerge from the passenger door.

Probably a stroke of genius, or maybe perhaps a straight forward stroke, however you also failed to spot I spelt involved wrong (involed) I will (probably) correct both immediately.

Let's just hope Jack Grealish was not in the car behind!!!

Hah, I just saw that :)

Anyway, with JD otherwise engaged, JG and SI incapable of generating further headlines for now, this car crash can probably be re-headlined as "Another Irrelevant Sideshow to Become a Bigger Story Than the Football". In fairness, it has probably been the most interesting thing to happen wrt the team since Saturday.

My first thought was a furious Roy Keane at the wheel however as they were hit in the back that seems likely,
unless of course they are involved in some sort of insurance scam.

The FAI took them to see Ruud. Hurt feelings all around, and an unforseen prostate exam. But it saved some money.

Enough about Roy and Martin. What about all the other mad hoors on it?!

I'm surprised your first thought was a furious Roy Keane and not a furious Martin O Neil battering down your door to ask why you keep misspelling his name.

I don't think he is thick or absent minded per se or the other word/expression I'm looking for, just a bit of a fairy. I also think he has an inner 5 year old telling him what to write all giddy and excited. Like the woman in the 60s ball who never gets asked to dance and CD comes in from the dark and asks her to dance and bill and Melinda gates live happily ever after.

Tricky is a huge fan of mad men.

Apparently the driver who went into the back of them survived the crash but was battered to death by Roy
Keane. http://www.ybig.ie/forum/smileys/smiley36.gif http://www.ybig.ie/forum/smileys/smiley36.gif

The guy was a real shrimp. Thats why Maurice battered him.

Is there a Manchester Taxi driver that has not yet been repatriated after the Match on the loose ?

He'd better watch out around himself for a long time into the future or else we'll be reading this in a book:

"I'd waited long enough. I flipping hit him hard. The light was green (I think). Take that you runt. And don't ever stand over me sneering about overstating damages to the bumper."

Did he have an auto body experience?

Or a dare?

Not been on the site for a week or so.

I though this was the title of the thread summarising the Scotland game.

their whole tenure has been a car crash. hopefully they will do the decent thing and resign when we are mathematically ruled out.
