He was even in a foul humour at Dublin Airport before they left, this was reported at the time.

Far be it from me to go digging up the past for a reaction but felt this needed an airing.

surprised at mick, every interview he's done with OTB over the last few years he's refused to talk about it and say it's in the past and only leads to a bite back from Roy.

But look who got the interview out of him. Dunphy. Still milking saipain for his own ends. And now from the other side. Snake of a man

I would imagine McCarthy would handle it very differently if in that situation now.

Keane, of course, because he’s a grade-A f**king bellend. Horrible, toxic person.

Bit of a silly documentary. After all the talk over the years has there ever actually been a good documentary made about Saipan or WC 2002? 

It's a pity WC 2002 never gets the attention 90 or 94 gets. They did perform really well in the end.

Any reasonable person who has ever had to answer to a manager/boss knows who was right.

Mick made mistakes. Should have done things behind closed doors man to man. 

But, Roy was out of all order. The team played better without him. Holland and Kinsella played super so doubt the team could have done better and could have done worse. He was a red card waiting to happen.


The real shame was we were top seeds for euro 2004. Thats where roy was badly missed.

Greece won that euros..........

Honestly believe if man u had won something that season Keane would have stayed. 

Arsenal doing the double and losing the CL semi to Leverkussen was eating him up. Was an explosion waiting to happen. Should have skipped Saipan. 

People talk about how McCarthy managed him and seem to forget the amount of preferential treatment he'd already been given to try and keep him onside.
