    You know the story well enough by now mate.

    Keane will say the most hurtful & crass things, think it's funny and defend it for years.

    But the slightest comment directed at him results in a grudge that he keeps going for years.

    He must be a right pain to live with.

    He's a character, I think he's good for the game though. Nobody wants a field full of equals.

    The greatest captain we've had, and we've had some amazing players leading our team.

    The book is controversial to sell copies, no other reason, otherwise he'd release it in March, nowhere near Xmas.

    You're probably right smug not the best person to know socially,but I'am speaking totally on a football front here , and the way he lifted the profile of our club from it's KNEES should NEVER be forgotten by any Sunderland fan

    I don't think it will be.

    But I do believe he left and couldn't have cared less if we'd gone back on our knees ....... just my opinion.

    Never a fan of Keane but as I remember it didn't you have a amazing run once he took over?

    And Irish we don't like begrudgers and always like to see our own doing well.

    As a fan of your neighbours didn't matter to me but looking at Keane then,was Clough/Ferguson's managerial style a influence on him then and seemed to work.

    f**ing Hipsters pal, can't stand them. Beards down to their nipples then hair in a ponytail, s**t trousers and boat shoes. Them beards do my effing head in, they're like a gym accessory to some of the posing mincers that turn up in my gym.

    Not sure Keano's a hipster mind! <laugh>

    Not sure what a hipster is but that's starting to look a bit Bin Laden-esque.

    Long stinking beards, dress like they own a boat, most certainly do not own any form of marine transportation.

    You probably don't notice them cos you're an alternative dresser.

    Define alternative? I'm a quirky dresser but wouldn't say alternative. But alternative where I come from covers skaters through to goths with emo and rockers in between. Alternative It's a term I've never really understood in the way it's applied to sub cultures and their fashion and music.

    I've always got a beard but won't let it get long like. Too untidy.

    On what level mate?

    He did buy us out of the league. I will always give him credit for moulding them into a team quickly, but he signed an entire team of players.
