Roy Keane.
Need we go on?
The Republic of Ireland legend was in Dublin’s Olympia Theatre tonight for a sit down interview and audience and, as expected, he has captivated the room.
The Cork man spoke with Today FM’s Matt Cooper in the first of the series Barretstown Talks – conversations with notable persons in aid of the charity.
And Keane entertained as he mused through his career and life in front of a packed theatre. We’re glad to report that Cooper survived the death stare.
Warming up in the dressing room at the Olympia for my on stage meeting with Roy Keane. What would you ask him?

Keane gave a class response when he was asked what would have happened if social media and camera phones were around when he was younger.
“I’d be in prison,” he resplied.
But we’re glad they’re around now because Twitter was a joyous place this evening. Any night with Roy Keane and all that… (Is that not a saying? Because it should be)
#RoyKeane says Saturdays were almost a day off for Manchester United cos training games were harder than league games #Barretstown

Roy Keane confused as to why he and Patrick Vieira should have been sent off in the tunnel that time… 🙂 #WhatAMan

"Is Clough the only person who hit Roy Keane without you hitting him back?" "A fella hit me on the M50 a few weeks ago+I didnt hit him back"
