The best of the Twitter reaction to THAT Roy Keane story

That whirring you hear is the rumour mill in overdrive

If you’ve been under a rock for the last few hours then there was a bit of a kerfuffle earlier and guards were called after an alleged incident involving Roy Keane at the Ireland team hotel in Portmarnock.

The FAI earlier issued a statement backing Keane after he called the Gardai  and played down what allegedly happened.

There has been plenty of reaction online and we expect plenty more about this before Friday’s game with Scotland.

Roy Keane is alleged to have knocked someone to the ground near the Irish team hotel. I find that difficult to believe.

Going back to Glasgow after getting involved with the Gardai? It's like the Love/Hate finale all over again.

Nature abhors a Roy Keane news vacuum.

Roy Keane is definitely going to get booed at Celtic Park – for being a grass

Fair play to Roy creating a diversion to move the focus from McClean and McCarthy…Good man! #RoyKeane
