Keane 1/8 on Paddy Powerā¦
Fuck sake. Like him or loathe him, Keane will be a loss to the Irish set-up. If thereās one positive from this, it leaves the door open for John Robertson to step into the void - OāNeillās most trusted right hand man. If heās up to it will be the question, he had heart trouble last year.
I was under the impression he left because of his health issues. Very much hope Iām wrong on both counts
I think he didnāt go to Sunderland with O Neill because of his health. Iām sure he plans on coming back at some stage. Does he still smoke?
Lawwell has spoken to STV and confirmed Celtic have had talks with Keane but that heās one of 5-10 candidates. Whether thatās a smokescreen or not is hard to say. They were pretty quick to get the statement out last night after the OāNeill press conference and then followed it up with this clarification, which may be either:
a) they are still properly in the middle of the selection process and Keane is no more likely than anyone else
b) theyāve decided on Keane but still need to go to the trouble of talking to the other unsuccessful candidates and they donāt want them to feel like they found out by media that Keane got the job.
Still plenty of conflicting rumours circulating. Petrescu linked again last night as a 50/50 with Keane. @balbec will confirm but I donāt think heās had a hugely impressive managerial career so far. And then there are other rumours that Mackay and Larsson both turned the job down and Keane is getting it as third choice. And then there are other rumours that Celtic opted not to speak to Mackay and chose Keane #1 overall.
I endorse Roy Keane but only if Tony Loughlan is part of his ticket.
Thatās critical as far as Iām concerned.
Whatās worse for Celtic fans?
- Keane taking the job
- Keane being offered the job and refusing it
- Keane walking out on his country to manage his countryās club side
How could any self respecting fan want a man that was beaten up by a mate of Gary Breen as the manager of their football club?
I would go for keane rather than Petrescu.
If the powers that be conclude that heās the best man for the job then I will support that decision. However, until Dermot Desmond, Pearse Doherty and Mary Lou McDonald have reached that consensus, all we are doing is speculating. I still hope Matt Carthy will get the nod.
Roy Keane is box office.
keane dresses as a leprechaun and got the whoopsies from Gary Breens mate
a no from me and the BRECSC/TFKCSC
A quisling, a traitor, a piece of vermin.
He brings great shame on Celtic Football Club. This is thundering disgrace, I am disgusted. This is even worse than the time Steven Pressley signed for Celtic.

Not surprising to see the stooges whop have blindly suported Lawell and his cost cutting/downsizing and were afraid to criticise Lennon are also suporting the appointment of Keane.

These are the lads who celebrate a good set of financial results as if itās winning the champions league.
Hardly surprising carry-on from @Rocko[/USER] and [USER=9]@Bandage. Iām off to set up the TFK Provisional Celtic Supporters thread, where we will only passively follow Celtic if this odious SAS-connected quisling becomes manager.
