Roy Keane

[SebastienELLISbexter]

Keane was always creative in the ways he could motivate the players using different things to get an impact - ranging from walking in to saying 'youre shite wont lie youll lose this just try to enjoy it' and walking out to telling Anton Ferdinand 'no surprises there youve got no bollocks' etc. He loves playing for reactions. And on top of that hed consider every detail from colour schemes to away dressing room. He will definitely consider sitting in the stands as a menacing presence as a motivational tool.

It's true, the club requires a big character sailing the ship. Grayson and Parkinson in particular were such awful appointments it's actually shocking that someone (Donald) interviewed them and thought yeah that'll do. Personalities wetter than a wet thing.

It's managers with strong personalities who have thrived here over the last 40 years. Smith, Reid, Keane and BSA.

They fit right in, tap into everything we are about as a city and region.

Not afraid to make bold decisions and enforce the highest standards here.

Correct

 

[BumbleBee]

That worked well

He was a bloody good keeper.

 

[ac arundez]

Reality is Both parties would be mad to turn it down
Certain managers fit certain clubs and vice Versa, Quinny knew that back then and by reading keanes book he knew it also
Sunderland needs a strong personality to get it going and thrive under the challenges it provides
The likes of Ross, Parkinson Grayson and the Mcanns that have been linked it will never and doesn’t work
Get it done

Yes lad! You know it makes sense

 

[Rivet Catcher]

That worked well

Gordon was a quality goalkeeper. I would say since I’ve been following the lads he’s in my top four

 

[robbied1]

It's not. Goalie is a crucial position - that's why he paid 9m for Gordon.

Back up your threat....?

 

[dom]

Should stretch to the fans too, 'in your seats by 3pm or the doors are getting locked!'

And staying locked till the bitter end!

 

[robbied1]

He was a bloody good keeper.

Come on? I still have your threat , so come and back it up?

 

[Sons of The Wear]

His agent used to be the same one as Quinny, Michael Kennedy but he died about 18 months ago. Not sure who he's with now?

He used a lawyer, not an agent.
How’s Fidel’s family over there?

 

[tunstall birdman]

Have you got @tunstall birdman locked up there ?

 

[SebastienELLISbexter]

And staying locked till the bitter end!

Goals in the last minute were a trademark of the last time he was manager. A never say die attitude. Also felt confident of a turnaround at half time with Keane in charge.

 

[HoxtonMackem]

And staying locked till the bitter end!

Aye.

Anyone not singing without good reason will be fined.
Ne parking like a **** in the sheepfolds either, or you'll also be fined.

Hope he announces that sharpish!

 

[Krusty up front]

I read that in my head with a Stewie Griffin voice, for some reason!
Seems quite cru-el! My entire evening is ru-iiiiined!
I daren‘t even think of Cool Hwip, I‘ll be chuckling all night. Oh shit…

You’re eating hair!

What the deuce?

 

[James]

That worked well

It worked very well. He was a choss goalkeeper.

 

[Dolf]

He was a bloody good keeper.

Still is

McCarthy too. Inherited a terrible situation but did well under the circumstances. Possibly the toughest of the lot, but a lovely man

Go to bed

 

[dom]

The good times are returning, I can feel it in my bones!

He was a solicitor but it was Michael Kennedy.

 

[Safc_Pelaw]

That worked well

You’re right, It did. some sad bastards never got over that fact he cost 9m for a keeper and expected every shot to be miraculously saved
