Leaving United still rankles with Roy

Roy Keane has reopened the wounds surrounding his departure from Manchester United in November 2005 saying he felt ‘‘insulted’’, ‘‘badly treated’’ and ‘‘lied to’’ by the club he served with distinction for 12 and a half years.

Keane was shown the door after criticising the team on MUTV, United’s in-house television station, following a 4-1 Premier League defeat to Middlesbrough, a game the Corkman missed through injury.

The interview was pulled by the club and Keane left the club a month later after an early morning showdown meeting with manager Alex Ferguson and chief executive David Gill.
