Keane is Back

Roy Keane is back in the UK, but only this time as a manager. Roy Keane signed a three-year contract Monday to be Sunderland's new manager, a move that came just minutes after he watched the Black Cats beat West Brom 2-0 with Niall Quinn on the bench.

Keane has a reputation for a fierce temper and a demanding nature. At Man United, he criticized high-profile players for not playing hard enough. He also had a feud with Quinn, once calling his fellow Irishman a "muppet."

Keane's carrer has been all but that of an angel. He played for Man Utd for most of it and then went on to finish off at Celtic. During his time on the Irish National Team he create plenty of controvery and walked out on the 2002 World Cup Team on Japan. This left a lot of fans bitter.

So let's see if Keane can drive them down into the second division or raise them back to the EPL.

I personally would like to see the prick fall flat on his face. I couldn't stand the guy as a player and I certainly won't have any more respect for him as a manager. He was certainly a great player in his day. He always gave Arsenal a lot of trouble. Kean and Patrick Vieira used to go at it all the time. Never liked him - read his autobiography for the hell of it - still didn't change my opinion.
