Henry Winter Times journo on Keano


But which managers were the scariest/most difficult to deal with?

I don’t get scared any more after so long in the industry. But I noticed when I was getting a bollocking from Roy Keane (at Ipswich) that all my colleagues had disappeared! I hope Keane returns to coaching or management; when he was doing his badges, his tutor/mentor told me his work was the best he’d seen. I enjoy Keane as a pundit, but I’d like to see him have another go in the dug out.

The Keane interview is covered on the Tommy and Hector podcast today.   As expected Keane unclenched after the interview 😀😀 and chatted away to Tommy in a relaxed friendly manner. 


Roy was glued to the interview with the sex therapist 😀😀😀😀

Good summary of the man.


I'd love to see him have another crack at management but I can't see it he clearly enjoys being a pundit and is a popular one. 

I'm not a Keane fan but trying to set that aside for a moment, is there anything to indicate he would be a success if a club took a chance on hiring him as a manager again? The game has moved on a lot since he last managed. 


He might get a new manager bounce and get a reaction from underperforming players.  He might do a decent job at Championship or L1 level.  He needs a good tactical coach though by his side and not his mates. 

He doesn't do tactics and that's where he falls down.  That and constant berating of players gets old quickly and players rebel against him or lose all confidence.

Surely the days of managers "not doing tactics" are gone??

Keane's great if you put something in front of him and let him rant about it. If you're expecting something more introspective you'll likely be disappointed.
We're decent enough..

Well the fact that Keane is a controversial figure who had a highly distinguished career would make him interesting and to be fair he is pretty funny at times. He's not a deep thinker or an articulate pundit for that matter but he is entertaining in a certain way. 
Wings? They're only the band The Beatles could have been.

Yes I don't think anyone's ever been interested in Keane because he's particularly philosophical or deep. I think the appeal is that he's seemingly quite old school and one of a dying breed, etc etc. Im not sure how long that shtick will keep entertaining people in the punditry sphere, I see it getting a bit tired sooner rather than later.
