Keane linked with Sunderland takeover
tribalfooball.com - June 13, 2006
Retiring Manchester United legend Roy Keane has been linked with Niall Quinn's consortium that is seeking to buyout Sunderland.
Keane could be installed as manager at Sunderland, but ex-United teammate Gary Pallister says: "If I was a player, I wouldn't want to play under him.
"I reckon he could dish out bigger rollickings than Sir Alex."
Pally continued: "Roy made football look so easy.
"He spoke his mind - and that might have caused the ructions with Sir Alex - but he set his own standards and wanted others to follow them.
"If people fell below them he was there to give them a rocket.
"Ultimately that probably cost him his place at the club."
