If I recall from his book he was pissed off at other players not having pulled their weight that season, including senior players.

Is their any other job in the world that you can do so bad but walk out the door with millions?

Hopefully Roy & Rafa don't take up any more managing jobs as it will stop RLL starting these silly threads.

That would be a common enough theme with Roy, "im right and the rest of the world is wrong" The question is "Is Roy Keane a muppet?"

Thats my missus mantra too

Roy is a legend, as a footballer he is up there with the best. As a manager he had one good spell and hasn't cut the mustard.

I think Liverpool supporters would prefer to rip the back out of Ireland's best player than talk about the demise of the once great Liverpool.

Eamon Dunphy has said that he believes Roy Keane is not suited to management, and that he is unlikely to get another managerial job following his sacking as Ipswich Town boss.

Speaking on Morning Ireland, Dunphy told Darren Frehill that he was not surprised by Keane's sacking. Under the Cork man, Ipswich have lost 10 of their last 14 games.

Dunphy said: "The results have been very poor, and he has been sniping at the club for not giving him money to buy players. I don't think he is cut-out for management. His record at Sunderland was OK, but the constant stories of fights with players and his public denunciation of his own players are bad signs. I don't think Roy Keane is cut-out temperamentally for management. You have to respect other people".

Dunphy also believes that Keane was too vocal at press conferences and tended to speak his mind:

"A lot of his press conferences are bizarre to say the least. Journalists love him because he is always controversial. A football club should always be about the team and the players, and I think that having such a high-profile and controversial character as manager puts a spotlight on players who are really only Championship players. They are journeymen, I was one myself, and there is enough pressure inherent in being that. When he arrived at Ipswich in a glare of publicity, and with the targets he set himself, this increased the pressure on what are, basically, ordinary players".

Keane had moderate success as a manager when he teamed up with former Ireland team-mate, Niall Quinn at Sunderland.

Dunphy added: "He got promotion at Sunderland, and they were close to the bottom of the table when he arrived, but he was still a remote figure to the players. I have spoken to players who played for him there and he wasn't liked. He was feared actually, and you can't get results on a continuing basis if players are afraid of you. I don't think he will get another job in football. He has proved, like many great players, to be unable to do the difficult job (of management)".

Dunphy was not entirely critical of Keane however, and did offer some praise:

"The other thing to be said about Roy Keane is that he is a remarkable man. He has five beautiful children and a very nice wife. He is taking care of his parents and friends in Cork, and he has never forgotten where he has come from. There are an awful lot of positives in Roy Keane's story and in his life".
