    ROY Keane has labelled Newcastle United fans as “arrogant” in his new autobiography.


    Keane – who famously clashed with Alan Shearer at St James’s Park – was twice sent off at the stadium during his Manchester United career.

    Writing in The Second Half, which is out today, Keane, now assistant manager at Aston Villa, was scathing about the club.

    He said: “I always had a bit of hassle against Newcastle.

    “I’d been sent off twice up there. I’d had my battles with Shearer and Rob Lee.

    “I always thought they were an arrogant bunch, for a club that had won **** all. We always got decent results at St James’s Park; it wasn’t a bad place to play.

    “But as for the Toon Army, the Geordies and the hostile reception – I never fell for all that crap.”

    Keane also encountered Newcastle during his time as Sunderland manager.

    The 43-year-old guided the club to a historic 2-1 win over United at the Stadium of Light in the 2008-09 campaign.

    “It was the first time we’d beaten Newcastle at home in thirty-odd years,” said Keane.

    “It was electric – the tension. (Djibril) Cisse scored, and Kieran (Richardson). The level of player we had now had gone up since I’d come to the club.

    “We played really well. I think it was my happiest day at Sunderland.”

    Sunderland lost 2-0 at St James’s Park the previous season.

    “We were a goal down after four minutes – a Michael Owen header,” he said.

    “There were mind games going on before the match. The police got us there three hours before kick off – players got bored, testosterone levels are high; it’s too long to wait.

    “Jonny (Evans) and Phil Bardsley were injured, so didn’t play. They were a big loss.”

    He's a bit of a bell, rich of him to call us arrogant.

    Good Lord, is that the standard of his writing? It reads like an eight year old scribbling his "What I did on my holidays" report.

    Interesting thing here though. A Sunderland win and it was him bringing the calibre of players to the club which has never been surpassed, he says. A Sunderland defeat and the excuses come trotting out.

    I've always considered Keane to be a thug, a bully and a coward. Now I see him as a pathetic thug, a bully and a coward.

    Is there anybody in the world who doesn't hate Roy Keane (bar his well pleasured dog)?

    He's right though, the atmposphere at St James has been really poor the last few years. Mind, it was cracking in the days when Shearer was still around so on second thoughts maybe Keane's just being a bitter man because Shearer was harder than him.

    Got to say though the Robbie Savage story did make me laugh.

    Thats rich coming from him. He's one of the most arrogant men in football. Valid point though luuk. You cannot deny that we could do with a player like him on our side now. There are very very few players with that sort of desire to win.

    Yep that's a different question altogether. As a player he was magnificent. He had it all and more than anything a burning desire to win. He hated getting beat at anything by all accounts. I remember watching a documentary where Ferguson and the coaching staff cheated at a club quiz for a bit of fun. He threw a tantrum and stormed off when he realised they were cheating <laugh>
