Keano

As I mentioned the breaking news yesterday, the whirlwind of a week at Portman Road culminated early today when Roy Keane was officially introduced as manager of Ipswich Town Football Club; becoming just the 12th man in our esteemed history to be honored with the post.

Take your pick of the news articles, and I wont repeat the details of the story, but there will plenty more commentary on the way and, no doubt, plenty of room for debate. Especially if you are Town fan please add your comment but all are welcome.


Keane Targets Premier League from Soccernet

Personally, I'm going on record as saying I am on this bandwagon. And you heard it hear first (maybe) but we will run the table next year. I'll elaborate in my next post.

Cheers all...I'm off to learn that Keano chant and pour another pint - best thing to happen at Portman Road in at least 5 years....UP THE TOWN!!

Does Keano Drive a Tractor?

Breaking news hot off the press is that before Jim has even cleaned out his desk and turned in the keys to the Tractor, former Manchester United legend Roy Keane is about to accept an offer from Ipswich Town to return to the management ranks.

If you had asked me a couple of months ago I would have thought Portman Road would have been one of the most unlikely landing spots for Keano; if he ever decided to manage again. I'm not sure if it is still a likely destination, given that Jim was only shown the door this morning....but at the very least there seems to be plenty of smoke swirling around this storyline.


Much more to come...I'm sure.
