First, a confession: I kind of love Ipswich Town manager and former Ireland captain Roy Keane.
(Even though he terrifies me.) But I was glad it wasn't my cell phone going off in the middle of a
press conference this week. Because let's face it: the man is a bit...oh, [...]

Even the most die-hard Roy Keane supporter will surely have been left dismayed following the
Ipswich Town manager's rant over France's midweek winner in that World Club qualifying second-leg
play-off. The infamous "hand of Henry" goal led to Ireland's elimination and not surprisingly
comparisons have been made with Maradona's 1986 "hand of god" goal.

Roy Keane has been under siege after a slow start this season at Ipswich, but as
Matt Dickinson of the Times Online reports, a distanced manager has apparently separated himself
from his locker room.
One of the most troubling stories about Roy Keane's management did not involve him screaming,
shouting or karate-kicking the tactics board in the dressing room, as Dwight Yorke has described so
vividly in his forthcoming autobiography. Click to continue reading...

The world is not lacking for stories detailing how Roy Keane did the exact opposite of what you'd
expect from your normal living, breathing, feeling living being. Today we have another story about
the man currently leading Ipswich Town into a plummet to League One. A story which should draw no
gasps, no blank stares, [.

Save us from ourselves! That is the plea you hear from various quarters with regard the behaviour
of other Newcastle fans in recent months, notably recently, in response to the anti-Ashley jeering
which was evident throughout the Ipswich game. The view taken by some supporters is 'what will be,
will be' and we should get [.

United tonight gave a commanding display of flowing attacking football, with plenty of fight and
spirit, Â and were much too good for a n all at sea Ipswich Town side this afternoon. And it was

My attention on Saturday evening was drawn to the Coca-Cola Championship, or Division 2 as it
was called up until BSkyB came along, and the clash between recently relegated West Bromwich Albion
and Ipswich Town. Roberto Di Matteo and Roy Keane faced each other as players on numerous occasions
during their careers, with one particular incident in the Charity Shield in 2000 leading to one of
the 11 red cards Keane received during his Manchester United career.

Shane Supple
Why are we always so shocked when professional footballers quit the game for a similar reason
many other people quit their jobs? Shane Supple was the latest to "shock" the football world with
his decision to quit Ipswich Town at the age of 22 to pursue another career, rumoured to be in
catering.

Bad luck for Matt Derbyshire, whose permanent deal at Olympiacos in Greece has got off to a bad

The 2000-01 Premier League season was a bizarre one, ranging from the mundane to the improbable:
On one hand, Manchester United won the title by 10 points, on the other hand, it was delivered with
a poor Middlesbrough side winning 3-0 at Highbury. Whilst Man United, Arsenal and Liverpool were
the top three, Peter Reid's Sunderland were second in late January.

It's the gash that keeps on gushing, so it seems. Last Wednesday -- despite all the this one
matters only for them and not us placebos given -- managed to hurt, well...like a motherfucker,
truthfully. It's Mexico, after all. So deep had the wounds felt, they managed to suffocate an
altogether joyous announcement, and perhaps too what would have been a modest sedative.

In their 1983 book "The Encyclopaedia Of British Football", writers Phil Soar and Martin Tyler
use a photograph of a match between Norwich City and Southampton as an example of the changing face
of football. They compare the rise of smaller club from affluent cities in the south of England
with the decline of traditional clubs from their Northern equivalents.
