Agree.

As critical as I'd be of Keane it's definitely one charge I (or anyone in the middle) wouldn't throw at him. 

He certainly isn't a boring individual.

It was pretty poor TV and I put that down to Tiernan although I do sympathise that it must have been a tough one with no time to prepare and it is a general entertainment show and not a football one. Same old boring questions Roy has answered 100s of times.

The only interviews where the interviewer does most of the talking is when pat kenny is conducting it showing off how much research he has done and to belittle the interviewee.  Keane spoke but said nothing.

What you say is correct, there is little grey (except his beard!) with attitudes to Keane. But like Doherty I thought Keane was pretty forthcoming. It was a vert long interview and he did 90% of the talking. Thought he expanded as best he could on some pretty poor questioning from Tommy (Tommy is usually much better but they didn't gel well - two pretty difficult guys!). Really don't get the Fr Stone suggestion, Keane must have spoken just himself for 30 mins plus. I enjoyed it on a level but agree it wasn't great TV generally. Just think Tommy more to blame than Roy.

Some change in expression all the same when it came up. 

What was his answer, because I'm pretty sure he played the following weekend. 

Said he played an international game a few days later. Not sure if that’s true but he was playing club games not long after. And IIrC it was injuries to his other knee which caused him to retire (the correlation is up for debate).
The game was on the Saturday and Haaland played for Norway on the Wednesday night. Correct regarding retirement too. It was the other knee.

That interview was recorded around the first week of November.
Wronged and misunderstood. Just like Harry.

Tommy could have made it more lighter and had more craic with him. Having said that i thought Roy gave him enough.

Agree. Just watched ot and a very different interview than you'd think from reading this. Thought Tommy was more stilted than Roy. Tommy had a misapprehension that Roy was being uptight. Obviously they had a chat over the ad break and worked that out. Generally thought was Roy was pretty open, certainly by his standards. I enjoyed it.

You do know it’s not live.  There is no ad break.  The interviews take about twice as long as what is shown as it’s edited down.  That was the highlights without the awkward silences.  Keane was been awkward the sake of it.  He doesn’t have the reveal anything or enter into the spirit of things if he doesn’t want to but why go on a show like the Tommy Tiernan show if you don’t want to go there.  It’s not a show that is about a couple of soundbites for social media that Keane is adept at. It’s a show that attempts to get to the heart and soul of a person and Keane put up the barriers which again is fine but why go on. A waste of time really. 

Then why book him then? Roy is clearly not a guy that would open up emotionally on tv. Not every question has to be deep and meaningful. Like asking him was he looking for a father figure when he went over to the UK. He had a father and had a good relationship with him from all accounts so that was a daft question. Keane gave him plenty as far as i could see. What were people expecting.

At least he went for a game of crazy golf and we got some insight into father stones parents and grandmother.  

Keane was sent out with his packed lunch that morning by his mother and told tell those f**kers up un Dublin nothin.
