    Makes sense, obviously worked with him before. Only a matter of time before they approach Niko Kranjčar and Peter Crouch now

    The Redknapp impersonator....

    I thought it was actually him for 30 seconds before I cottoned on.

    Can't stop laughing.

    tets; your attempt to have Robbie's record recognised by Guinees World Records got a mention on Joe.ie: https://www.sportsjoe.ie/football/ro...ognised-124328

    The good folks over at Irish Abroad, a site dedicated to collecting statistics based on Irish soccer players, put in all the ground work to figure out that the legendary Irish striker deserves a place in the history books.

    Cheers Danny, I wouldn't have seen that
    Believe it or not, when Joe.ie first started, the owner used to follow the site's account on Twitter. He's since unfollowed me, but I did run into him once at one of their advance movie screenings

    Another mention here in the Irish Examiner: http://www.irishexaminer.com/ireland...ts-450601.html

    In February, the Irish Examiner revealed how football supporter Joe McCarthy contacted Guinness World Records to suggest that Robbie Keane has achieved a feat unparalleled in the history of football. Joe runs the ‘Irish Abroad’ website, a statistics site which collects data on Irish players.

    Interview with Keane in yesterday's independent: http://www.independent.ie/entertainm...-35824914.html
    To be honest, there's not much in it, it's essentially an ad for Aer Lingus's new service to LA

    Robbie gave a rousing rendition of Champagne Supernova in the Black Door on Harcourt Street last night. Got up onstage to join the band and sing it to everyone's delight.

    various sources linked him with birmingham, unsurprisingly.

    From Sky Sports Transfer Centre - http://www.skysports.com/football/news/11694/10951419/ashley-cole-and-robbie-keane-interested-in-birmingham-switch

    Ashley Cole would consider a move to Birmingham City, according to Sky sources.

    Robbie Keane - who has been playing with Cole at LA Galaxy - is also expected to begin talks with Birmingham this week over a move to the club, Sky Sports News HQ understands, which could persuade Cole to follow him to St Andrew's.

    He could have a word with Darren O'Dea before making that decision. Link here - http://www.the42.ie/robbie-keane-ind...24097-Aug2017/

    Forget about the performance or entertainment. It's only the result that matters.

    It all seems to be coming from The Irish Sun, so maybe a pinch of salt?

    Another boyhood dream about to come true?

    The next edition of Robbie's (auto)biography has to be called From Hollywood to Bollywood.
    Hello, hello? What's going on? What's all this shouting, we'll have no trouble here!

    Considering how much playing for Ireland meant to him, and how much Tallaght means to him, it would be very very sad to think he'll play a final season in f'kin' India, instead of doing the LOI a good one and playing out the year for Rovers, considering he could have done the full season. The profile and attention that would have drawn in would have been incredible.

    I mean I can't believe Claudine will be trekking over to Calcutta anytime soon.
    If I question Liam Scales ability to play intl football, refer me to this signature & his peformance at home at lb vs Port on Nov 13 2025.

    I think Claudine could swap Tallaght for this, for a year or two.
