Roy’s back: this time it’s personal

Roy Keane travels to Cardiff this morning for his first game as Ipswich boss. He hasn’t had time to take his coat off yet and he’s insulted a spectrum of people from Tony Cascarino to Steve Bruce to his own dogs.

“Tony Cascarino? I wouldn’t give him the time of day.
“There have been lots of things said about me over the years. I am quite happy to comment on people’s opinions in football I respect, but Tony Cascarino is a man I certainly do not respect, for a lot of reasons, and if I told you you would be shocked.
“So the day I worry about Tony Cascarino will be a very sad day of my life.
“Why? It is a very long story. If you ask me about what my ex-team mates have said and tell me one, I will tell you I respect some of them, respect a lot of them. Just not the one you mention.”

Gambler savant Cascarino always says on the Last Word programme on Today FM – where I used to work, incidentally – you should only bet on what you think is going to happen, rather than have a punt on something with longer odds. I might just have a fllutter on the fued between this two running and running.

Below, is the song Keane apparantly sang in Lillies Bordello after the famous win over Holland at Lansdowne in 2001.
