No prawn sambos for Keane at Croker

He might have been one of the best soccer players in the world, but there were never any airs and graces about Roy Keane, and nor were there on Saturday when he travelled to support the Cork hurlers.

No first class or chauffeur-driven limo for the modest Mayfield man, instead, like thousands of other Cork fans, he took a standard Irish Rail seat to Dublin with a few friends and bought tea from the service trolley.

It goes without saying that there wasn’t a prawn sandwich in sight, but the group brought their own home-made sambos for the trip to Croker.
