“Thanks Mick” hahaha Roy’s humour is so quick!!
Craig Weir quicker than you though isn’t he Craig. Fantastic come back that was from you there son
Anyone care to explain it to someone not from that part of the world?😅
@@adham96r people from Cork don't have Internet access, only thing they have are guide dogs so....
Little do you know the person who shouted the awnsers name was actually mick
It was mick who actually shouted that ... 🥴
If you thought I’d click yet another clip from this interview just because it’s Roy... well, you were right.
"I was there to win" Tells you everything you need to know about the man, so many others were just happy to be there.
EVERY single member of that squad wanted to give their all and do well for their country. To say otherwise is an insult.
@@Mani26031981 Would you stop, it was a just a little jolly for them. So they could just tell people they played at a world cup.
@@elflakeador09 Rubbish. Try telling that to Steve Staunton and Niall Quinn, stars of the Italia '90 side which nearly made the semis themselves. Jason McAteer and Gary Kelly were involved in USA '94. Robbie Keane was a star of Ireland's European Champion under-18 side. Damien Duff was a World Cup semi-finalist at youth level too. So putting Keane on that pedestal is just arrogance and ignorance. Sorry to say that.
@Ejrk22 I think Ireland’s success at the Olympics in Tokyo proves otherwise mate. 😉😎
That aside, the likes of Staunton, Quinn et al all had their own accomplishments as players and had a desire to succeed. They just didn’t have the good fortune to be a part of that all-conquering Man. United side. 👍💪
@Ejrk22 Olympics are usually crapshoots where you often need luck to win. Irish sportspeople for the most part give it their very best and at that level of course they will aim to succeed. I predict that more and more international sporting triumphs will come Ireland's way.
And especially after the betrayal that was Michelle Smith in Atlanta in 1996, I think it's a great thing to see an emergence of new sporting talent. ❤🙏👍💪🇮🇪🏆
As a Liverpool fan who hated Man U, you can't but like Roy Keane as a player and as a person, great Personality, some funny stories in this show
I was 15 that summer and will never forget the collective sadness of Irish people that our best player ever didn’t play. My generation missed the excitement of the excellent results of the Irish team in the 80s and early 90s, where we perform out of our socks and punched well above our weight (in terms of population size). This video tells me that Roy regrets not gritting his teeth, as he did on the pitch, and giving the thing a rattle. No amount of interviews or books or rants will get us the 02 World Cup back. So this is a good example of why you should avoid storming off in a high pressure situation... which takes a significant measure of self-control and humility. Sometimes, even if you are right, your response to a situation can be wrong. But good luck Roy and all those athletes from our small island who represent us with pride! From a sad 15 year old Dubliner, doing his Junior Certificate!
Why should he grit his teeth and ignore incompetent management, if you don't want to make a stand for what you believe then fine, but Roy Keane has more integrity than that.
U make a valid and salient point..Why not ask to speak to the Manager/Coach privately get out on that field,do the best for his country(the people and Flag)give a display that his team benefits from while he gets to display his ability at one of the greatest sporting spectacle's on the planet.
Then when all is said&done he can tell who he thinks deserves it to go&f##K themselves..I just don't get "It's my ball and I'm going home"type of mentality!
.A tremendous player&leader on his day,but a little to narcissistic for my taste..He has acquired himself a rep for being some what argumentative and egotistical,but it seems he's never wrong..Even when he's doing his football Punditry,it appears he's devoloped this "Caricature"for himself,Roy keane,the maverick,always ready to rock the boat and stand up for the disinfranchised..Na it's all about him I'm afraid!
@@SPM1966SPM because it's and was only a game of football. If he had channelled that anger into his performance on the pitch, he'd have a world cup medal on the mantel piece
As a Liverpool fan I was and still am 100% with Keane on this .. respect ☘️
The guy with the glasses asking the questions towards Roy looks like AJ3 and the other presenter looks like Gary Cahill
Roy Keane A Real Born True Winner,
Winner, or whiner?
God bless Roy Keane
Well done Valarie , very articulate and a excellent ambassador from the Well ; I was very impressed by Cian and the rest of the Limerick team ye all played very well congratulations to ye and the training staff again well done ye did Limerick proud.
Neville's laugh is hilarious! eh ha ha.
Thanks Mick 😂😂😂
Zidanes headbutt was his roy keane siapan moment
As a magic moment in Irish football I believe Keane let us down I'm still sore over it I'm a massive fan still stand by most things he says to this day but should he not have still put himself in selection that day whether he was picked or not leave it to the manager we prob wouldnt of beat Spain but he has to totally regret this decision
Totally agree.
Yeah agree, he let down millions because of his ego.
Problem with Kean (I like the guy by the way, I'm a Liverpool fan)..is that he's as stubborn as a mule,and I think,deep down,I think he wishes he wasn't sometimes, because he makes rash decisions and puts the blinkers on.
I can relate, because I'm exactly the same lol.
Still a top bloke,says it how it is, respect to the man.
I've always wanted to meet a magic moment in football, how are you doing?
You got to blame your football ( soccer) federation because they were exposed years later as corrupt and that manager was a yes man and the rest of those players were gutless
After the outing of the FAI as the absolute shambles it was all them years and the gravy train individuals organising Irish footballs affairs you have to see why Keane was frustrated with the toxic culture going on with the preparations for that world cup.
Correct. Dunphy on many occasions,highlighted the amateur approach of the FAI suits, years before Keane brought it to a head.
Ok, facts: Roy told Mick after the game on the Saturday that he'd fly to Tehran for the decisive fixture. On Sunday, Ferguson phoned Keane, and told him 2-0 was enough. He had asked for no physio at that point, but declared his knee crocked. Two days after he played a full match against Leicester. Then, mid-week, he played a full game against Bayern. Then, that weekend, he played a full match against Arsenal. Ferguson was famous for pulling his players out of international duties with fake injuries. Keane played 270 minutes, plus about 30 of added time in a week on his 'injured knee', after the team fought it out in Tehran. His indignance at the suggestion only confirms his dishonesty. And finally, though right about the poor conditions, he gave two inflammatory interviews slating the whole set-up, which led to McCarthy to have a go at him in front of the team. Did Keane do it publicly? Yes. So why would he demand privacy for criticism of himself?
Whatever about the rights and wrongs, I will agree with Keane about one thing. What did Mick McCarthy think was going to happen when he called Keane out n front of the whole group ? He clearly wanted to show who was boss in front of everyone. It could only end one way.
That is it in a nutshell. McCarthy knew EXACTLY what he was doing-- he wanted Roy gone and he wanted Roy to look petty. He disrespected his best player and leader. He had to go. I would have been up and gone also.
Sooòoo true Roy
From what I’ve seen of this interview, Roy Keane seems vindicated on the two main issues. Even though it’s obvious that Gary Neville (understandably) doesn’t want to take sides against Alex Ferguson, he clearly implies that Ferguson had been insidiously undermining Keane for some time in order to get rid of him. Hence, the MUTV matter was just a subterfuge used by Ferguson for this purpose.
Regarding the Saipan matter, Keane was vindicated by the subsequent John Delaney scandal which highlighted how rotten the whole FAI set up was. Keane wasn’t interested in the “go along to get along” approach which most people adopt in these situations, and which it appears the other Irish players adopted in Saipan.
That wasn't the issue at all. Keane was only right about the bad conditions. He was not right to slate the whole set-up in the press... he could have done that privately... then, he was apoakled whenvhe was called out for having faked an injury to avoid the decisive pkayoff in front of the team. Hypocrite.
Jesus the interviewer is shocking
I’m flabbergasted
Can't believe they've a job I'd do better after 45 pints
Why are you telling Jesus this?
if we had Keane against spain we would have won, all the major teams were gone and we could have gone the whole way, if you watch that world cup back we had a real shot
If ifs and buts were sweets and nuts, we'd all have a Merry Christmas. 😎
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
😆
No chance lol Ireland wouldnt have beaten South Korea let alone Brazil or Germany
Prob would of beaten Spain. At most made the final. Ireland had a nice little team back then. I loved that world cup.
Amazing how all the players stood by Keane 😄😄😄..says it all... 😉
Off the Ball literally work with all the clown Roy gives out about. Kenny being one!
I believe Keane only wanted the best for ireland. He was around a winning culture at united and he could see how irish football was a shambles. But as is so often the case its shoot the messenger mentality and now twenty years on we see the results of irelands poor structure...defeat to LUXEMBURG!!!!
He was frustrated. He was accustomed to the very best in preparation and professionalism at Manchester United, the dominant force in English football in his day. To go from that to the casual setup with the Irish team must’ve been annoying. Could he have just sucked it up and got on with it? Yes, but the man is a winner.
Even Gary Nevilles laugh sounds like its scared of Roy!
He is lol
Conor Mc Gregor is
Warped view of roy
Of course he is. Everyone at United was in awe of Roy, and probably still are.
Roy Keane channeling his inner rafa benitez here
3rd rate setup 1st class player. He put up with it for years, best player Ireland ever produced and a winner, it was all about the small stuff not being right and therefore making winning harder than it should have been. McCarthy was a cart horse in comparison
ME, ME,ME .
If Keane were in the squad, I think Ireland would've at least reached the semis.
True legend
Roy wanted to win at all costs, a mentality that made Man U such a force to be reckoned with in the 90s and 00s. I also think he knew that he was head and shoulders above the rest of the Irish squad as he WAS a good player and had the medals to prove it and I think he's politely alluding to the majority of the rest of the squad being otherwise quite ordinary and maybe not having his same level of passion or talent (hence the dig at Kenny Cunningham). And whilst I think McCarthy made a serious error of judgement to single out Roy in that way and call into question his commitment, there was obviously a longstanding problem between them that eventually boiled over. Having said that, McCarthy's record as a club and international manager is actually pretty decent whilst Roy's is woeful because of their differing approaches.
"win at all costs" would have made staying, even if he had to compromise his values to do so. He wanted to win in his way, and what he did was petulant and unpatriotic.
Keane helped bring the best out of Beckham, Giggs, Neville and Scholes by leading by example. They would walk through fire for him. No reason why he couldn't have brought that out of the Duff, the other Keane, Harte and Finnan who were established players in their own right and played against that Man U side many times over the years. They knew what Keane brought to the table and knew it was exactly what they needed. McCarthy brought this on himself by being lackadaisical about the appalling facilities and just accepting mediocrity given the fact that he didn't have what it took as a player. If that had been Jack Charlton or Ferguson, you can guarantee they wouldn't have stood for such pathetic standards. McCarthy has an inferiority complex which is why he was never an eighth the player that Keane was
Gary laughs at Roy like a schoolgirl😂
Gary IS a schoolgirl!

Cheers Mick although glad you kinda made up! Only thru football n a cuppa lol. MUFC Thru n Thru #keano.legend Bless you for all the silverware you very much helped us win. I hope you get a prem job u deserve it cos Sunderland stayed up cos of you and better still the players!! Your name pushed them up from the championship Roy Man utd legend........full stopz #nameabetterplayer?? In a man u shirt forest shirt Ireland. Well ROY KEANE IS THE MAN........
Click bait wishes it was Roy Keane
Literally every Irish player at the time said Roy had to be sent home for what he said. He’ll never admit it
You mean all the lads who were looking to play in the world cup? ....and didn't want to get dropped...those lads?
@@TheAvarusAnimus theyve said this now. Recently
Like he said at the The time . They are coward's
Because they were afraid of Mick dropping them, Roy said some of them did go to his room after the incident to say they 100% agreed with him but wanted to play for Ireland.
@@vin8754 So Kean says
He walked out in his country thats facts he's was a winger
@Ejrk22
Ah lad calm down.
He wasn’t a winger he was a centre midfielder actually
Roy is my favourite player at MU then...but shouldn't say these things....i don't look good...slagging of people publicly..even if they deserve it. Some did!
Thing about football is....
Soon as your not playing...the end!!!
Mine too but he was sooooooo right
The way Neville giggles like a little girl throughout is nauseating.
It started here..Mick..Roy it's your first tour and your late... disgrace...Roy responds 1st touch disgrace 😂🔥😂
hotheads will be hotheads
Ireland's Best Player Ever,
Um...Paul McGrath?!
Liam Brady
Johnny Giles
Ireland got to the world Cup because of roy Keane he had the right to do whatever he wanted Ireland were lucky to have him roy is a winner its a pity there wasn't more players like him
WHAT a stupid comment. Being Captain of Manchester United and Ireland DID NOT give him the right to disobey his manager and disrupt the harmony of the squad. He deserved to be sent home after his filthy tirade at McCarthy.
@@Mani26031981 sorry I didn't realise u were there and seem wat happened roy Keane was world class the only world class player Ireland had mick was a average manager roy Keane was right to stand up for wat he believes in
@@andrewgibson9043 I may not have been there but unlike you I did my due diligence and viewed both sides of the story. Roy Keane was a disruptive influence who would potentially have sabotaged Ireland's campaign had he stayed with the squad with his negative attitude. It's his fault that he was sent home. IF he had obeyed his manager and shut his trap he would have enjoyed the world-class facilities in Izumo and led the team out against Cameroon. But he was a hothead, and that was his undoing.
Standing up for his beliefs? PAH!!
If there were more players like Kean there would be no team they would all have walked out
@@fincaman2 if there were .ore players like Keane Ireland might have won something
He let his country down and all young lads that wanted to be like him looked up to him and admired him he didn't give a thought to anyone only his self ego why people are afraid of him is beyond me I'd love to meet him face on
The Cork accents are so much better than the Dublin ones. I'm from Sligo but I'd support a Cork bid to become the new capital city on the promise that no Dubliners would be on RTÉ!
I love you Dubliners, but my daughters are in their twenties and they speak with accents that would have been considered middle class Dublin accents many years ago.
I blame the media for this stealthy extermination of our regional dialects and accents!

I recognise many traits about RK that I myself have personality wise.
Thought that about you myself shane lad.
I'm exactly the same as well
You legend Shane
Roy keane as the ireland assistant manager accused harry arter of faking an injury. Hypocrite. There was a poor atmosphere in the irish team because of keane before he and martin o'neil stepped down. To be fair to the other irish players in 2002 they tried to broker a deal to get keane back after he left.
@@Liam-ls4vt do you mean just international squads?
Artur probably was faking injury, and the confro ration wasn't in front of all the players watching a meeting and he was assistant manager not the manager. Why do people like you, never consider context And the actual actions. They aren't the same circumstances at all yet your going out your way to spew guff
I must say after all these years there's still a division here in Ireland on who was right. I'M a Liverpool supporter have been all my life but I will say I still think Roy Keane was 100% right. Just look at the documentary that came out yrs later, Champagne Football. What really annoys me even today and this comes from a none drinker are person who goes into pub's. Roy will walk in and being the generous person he is will have a free bar for as long as he's there the likes of the Top of Hill, blokes will accept free drink and slate Roy's generously with a smart comment like I only got 6 pint's. What a load of hypocrisy there some of the same bloke's that would argue Roy was wrong about Saipan. All I know about Roy Keane is he one proud Cork man, the work he does for the charities here is something not many know about. I hated Roy played for UTD but as a man a human being I'd like him in my corner if I was in a tricky situation. Keano Keano Keano 🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪
Wuda beat Spain in 2002 if he was playing........... South Korea was next......What cuda been. never forgive him , reasons or not.
lots of irish people only sided with keane ..because of who he played for utd ....if he was playing for a lower club..people would have then said the truth...that he walked.........and if his case was so strong..?......why did nobody..no not one other player or person walk with him..........?
Complete opposite. ABUers couldnt get the knife in fast enough.
Back to milking this interview is it?
To be fair, I'm not one of these 'Keane-can-do-no-wrong' people but he is box office. It was a great interview. Up Tipp!
@@Fredders88 Not my point
@@Fredders88 Not his point.
Not exactly milking it with no ads on it
@@postrock3374 It was worth a second visit.
keane only wanted in Ireland now coz the media keep shitstirring about saipan, not revelant anymore like Keane himself...go manage some team before you slate them....
I suppose maradona is irrelevant too as he wasn’t successful as a manger? Peter Shilton and Paolo Maldini probably aren’t allowed an opinion on their own playing careers as they haven’t been successful managers? Brilliant school of thought that 👍🏻
Relevant enough for you to watch him and comment chap
he was carrying an injury he was looking for an out
oh be quiet. Looking for a way out of playing at a world cup haha
You never watched Keane if you seriously believe he wouldn't play for Ireland because of an injury
Cheers mick 😆😆😆
Are you not gonna try and win the game? 😂
Disagree with the false accusation vehemently but stay and play for your country.
Sent home.
So Keane says we should look at the facts? OK, let's look:
Mick McCarthy only asked him why he pulled out of the Tehran trip after assuring him that he would play. He NEVER accused him of faking an injury. HE flip-flopped about leaving the camp, HE told McCarthy to tell the press it was due to 'personal problems', HE undermined the manager and the squad with those two stupid interviews, and HE abused his manager in the most vile way possible.
In short, HE DESERVED to be sent home.
M C you’ve got to be in it to win it. Even if they had to train on sand you should still play. No matter how unprofessional the Irish FA were no way I’d leave.
Mani Thangadurai:- OMG not you again? A bitter Arsenal fan making up things to fit your biased story? Keane is a winner. Thick asked him for a meet up months before the world cup. Keane invited him to his house. They discussed travel arrangements, accommodation, diet, and training amongst other subjects. As the players flew out in economy whilst the FAI travelled Club class it was immediately obvious that Thick hadn't paid any attention to Keane. What happened afterwards is well documented and was preventable. Thick was out of his depth. He's a Championship standard manager as his record proves!!!
STOP making things up Mani. STICK to the facts!!!!!!!
@@KryptonitetoallBS I've said what I had to say to you Sir. EVERYTHING has been documented and undisputed. Please let this go. Thanks for your time. 😎
@@Mani26031981 Undisputed???.............lol If you want to actually know what happened just watch this video. It's NOT rocket science ;-)
@@KryptonitetoallBS Told from his side. Not very objective. 😎
Sticks and stones etc etc.
Probably watched this interview 3 times over the years and i think i have skipped eveything Gary said all 3 times.
Don't care
Keane let Ireland down big time. Irrespective of the manager or whaddaboutery he was wrong. Let the country down and should never have been allowed to be asst manager. Disgrace.
These presenters are terrible. Absolute clowns
Hate Gary, he is liar, can see and read his face during the section on Fergie. Get a pair man. You are out of the club. Still you are scared? I am ashamed. Becks did the right thing.
Gary Neville laughing like a little girl ..really scared of Roy
The parsimonious insect postauricularly tour because waste intradurally crash including a overwrought roast. peaceful, well-groomed pigeon
Fantastic player but let himself & Ireland down simple as
No John Delaney
dry as fck 😆
Stubborn cost him
He as a narcissist wanted to be seen for what he wanted ! To be the best and the attention !! Jesus,of course he wanted to win it,and been seen for glory ! He got called on it,in the most ridiculous way imaginable,such a shame,had Ireland hung on against Macedonia in ‘99 with 7 seconds to go for Euro 2000 and automatic qualification when he wasn’t even on the pitch,none of this would’ve happened…
Wrong wrong and wrong again. Keane's playing record speaks for itself, Man U cleaned up under him for 6 years. He helped bring the best out Beckham, Giggs, Neville, Scholes etc. He knew how good they were and he knew how good Robbie Keane, Ian Harte, Steve Finnan and Damian Duff could be as well since he'd squared off against them many times in the league, They likewise experienced first hand the wrath of that Man U side and having the captain of that wrecking ball of team leading them in Korea was going to light a fire in them...Keane wasn't going to compromise with a manager/former 3rd rate player who settled for less than leaving it all on the pitch...all of that preparation that led Man U to success started away from the pitch. McCarthy accepting rubbish like training pitches with barbed wire sticking out, feckless layabouts like John Delaney and co. living it up in first-class while the team sit in economy eating cheese sandwiches when they need proper food to train.....a testament to why he was always stations below Keane and the rest of that squad.....corrosive mindset and it's why Ireland is now being managed by someone who makes McCarthy look like Alf Ramsey....a 4-cap League of Ireland reject
He's a fraud
Watch football
