Keano’s canine therapy to take pressure off

NO ONE can surely be more pleased about Sunderland’s recent run of good form than manager Roy Keane’s worn-out old dog Triggs.

Yesterday Keane revealed how Triggs always senses a long walk is coming on when the football results filter down to the Keane family home at 5pm on Saturdays.

“I think the dog gets more concerned about the football results because obviously if it’s a bad one then we go on longer walks and she’s pushing on a bit now,” said Keane.
