Roy Keane doing punditry for ITV's Champions League final coverage this evening. Is this his first job as pundit?
Any interesting comments from Roy on the Barcelona romp?
Fairly good-humored and insightful tonight is Roy, I can see a future for him in this punditry lark. He can reach some pitch on that Cork accent at times, fair play to him. We county lads can only aspire to those heights.
Doesn't seem to have fallen out with anyone else in the studio either but I s'pose 2 hours or so is a meager enough incubation period for simmering tensions..
I watched the whole lot on RTÉ. Bawlls! I clearly missed out. And sterilized Souness was over on Sky... one day we'll have the dream dream team...
He didn't really say anything contentious, but what could any pundit do other than admire the executors of such a one-sided masterclass? He did pass a comment about how it shocked him that the Barca players even seemed to like their manager, probably a subtle reference to the often-tense relationships he's shared with his managers and later players down through the years, but I took it to be mostly in jest.
Damien Delaney tells a court that Keane was an "unreasonable boss".
Surely no judge could find him guilty?
Delaney trying to shirk responsibility here. In fairness, players turning up late for training isn't on, just as turning up late for any job isn't on. If Delaney had wanted to make it to training in time and spare himself the inevitable wrath of Roy Keane, couldn't he have made it his business to leave a little earlier? You can't blame your boss for you being late in the first place.
Ordinarily I think I'd agree with you but, ordinarily, being late for work would just result in a bollicking from your boss or a nasty comment in your annual review. Delaney's concern seemed to be that he would be fined 2-weeks wages if he was late. I think that sort of action by your boss would be deemed unreasonable by most people.

I think Stutts was referring to the chances of the defense excuse for speeding, finding a sympathetic ear from a football knowledgeable magistrate.
Does fear of a dressing down from Roy Keane not qualify as "special circumstance" to the same extent as Beckham's fear for life when he claimed that he was being followed by a man with a camera.
I think Roy will be disappointed at the lack of legal consideration given to the fear of his withering stare, that it does not carry the same legal weight of "special circumstance" as a paparazzi on the prowl.
Roy should appeal.
$90 fine and probation for two years. Another offense within this time and your fine is doubled. A third and your license is taken away.

Stunning day in Chicago today (weather has been amazing for two weeks now). Took the boat out and then crusied LSD on the way home. No better place than Chicago in the summer.
