Roy Keane was famous for his passion and commitment on the pitch. I don't recall him being associted with a wild lifestyle off the pitch, he was a very private person and the wildest thing I recall him being seen doing was walking his dog.

I didnt say i didnt agree with him

And as a matter of fact i do, i just find it funny that the arrogant irish prick is the one who comes out and publically says it !!

If I was in the trenches I'd want someone like that next to me...i think you confuse arrogance with self belief and determination...it's called a winners attitude, that he confines to football. Wouldn't you just love someone like that at the Vic? :wink:

Attempting to break someone's leg could be said to be a bit wild?
Agree he has many attributes, but his apparent belief that he's a law unto himself is a bit worrying, and it means he shouldn't really comment on other people's ethics (even where he's right)

His 'apparent belief' ...... or you perception...?

Well, they're the same thing. Otherwise, I'd have said, 'his belief'. :wink:
