Friends (and enemies): 10 classic Roy Keane rants

The one which got Roy thrown out of the World Cup:

KEANE temporarily quits international football after a monumental slanging match with Republic of Ireland boss Mick McCarthy, in front of his team-mates in Saipan. Keane had expressed his frustrations with the side's preparations for the 2002 World Cup, saying: “You’ve seen the training pitch and I’m not being a prima donna. Training pitch, travel arrangements, getting through the bloody airport when we were leaving, it's the combination of things. I would never say ‘that’s the reason or this is the reason’, but enough is enough.”

That interview led to a furious row, during which Keane allegedly told McCarthy. “Mick, you're a liar ... you're a f...ing wanker. I didn’t rate you as a player, I don't rate you as a manager, and I don't rate you as a person. You can stick your World Cup up your arse. The only reason I have any dealings with you is that somehow you are the manager of my country!”
