I lost what little respect I had for him when he made the comments about players’ wives controlling their careers – I thought he was better than that, pushing easy, alpha-male, misogynist buttons. As Dunphy says, he’s become a rent-a-quote; terrified of saying anything bland or conventional.

Missing the point, a bit.

If you remember, Keano is one of the very few people who said that the Game 39 proposal was a good idea – and one of the very few public figures to not oppose it vehemently.

IMO – it’s a smear tactic by the press to undermine the proposal, and Keano got broadsided in it.

The timing is strange too – Sunderland are on the up and are actually pushing away from the relegation zone.

Of course he is, they all do eventually, they have to in order to survive.
Unfortunately for Roy he hasn’t flourished as a manager.
BUT that will change, imo.
Problem with Sunderland:
- Inconsistent: I watch them play their hearts out one week, and then the next week they get dominated. It pains me to see them play sometimes.
And it pains me to predict them on IKTS because I always get them wrong.
