Delaney cites ‘unreasonable’ boss Keane for speeding offence

IPSWICH TOWN’S Irish defender Damien Delaney has cited “unreasonable” former boss Roy Keane as the reason why he was caught speeding on the way to training in October last year.

Ireland international Delaney was fined £235 (€263), given four points on his licence and ordered to pay £100 (€112) in costs at South East Suffolk Magistrates’ Court on Friday after being clocked travelling at 44mph in a 30mph zone in his Audi A5 in Ipswich’s Tuddenham Road on October 15.

In a letter of mitigation to the court, Delaney says he was anxious not to be late with Keane, famous for his no-nonsense attitude towards tardiness.
