'The worst thing about what he did and what he wrote in his book is
the example that it set to young kids who follow big-name players like
him. They see these things and they think it's okay.
'I
played in central midfield, I had run-ins with people every week, but
at the end of the game you shake hands and the problems stay on the
field. That is what should have happened between me and him.
'I
just hope now that he is different. He is now in charge of players and
as a manager and coach has different responsibilities.
'Football
is a sport and it should remain a sport. There is a line that should
not be crossed and I presume that he - and his players - know this
now.'
Haaland's progress through English football with
Nottingham Forest and Leeds had been relatively low-profile until Keane
seriously damaged knee ligaments fouling the Norwegian at Elland Road
in 1997.
The feud began and a chain of events set in motion
that culminated in Keane landing his studs on Haaland's right knee cap
in a 1-1 draw at Old Trafford.
Keane admitted in his book
that he set out to injure Haaland that day: 'I'd waited long enough. I
f****** hit him hard. The ball was there (I think). Take that you c***.
'And don't ever stand over me sneering about fake injuries.
Even in the dressing room afterwards, I had no remorse. My attitude
was, f*** him. 'What goes around, comes around. He got his just rewards. He f***** me over and my attitude is an eye for an eye'.

Haaland never read the book, but saw the quote and doesn't doubt Keane's version of events.

Haaland's
retirement was confirmed in 2003 and even though it was his left knee
that would not respond to surgery and treatment he has always believed
Keane's tackle on his right was the root cause. So did he believe that
Keane would ever make as good as manager as he has done? 'Well,
they just stayed up last season didn't they?' he said. 'I would expect
that a big club like Sunderland would expect better than that. 'But he has a lot of admirers and with the Irish connection at the club I am not surprised that he is revered up there.
'I will look out for the result against City.' After our conversation,
something peculiar struck me. Haaland didn't mention Keane by name once.
JUST GOES TO SHOW WHAT A NASTY PIECE OF WORK THAT TWAT REALLY IS

It's one thing to give a bloke a smack, although I disagree with violence full stop, but it's quite another to take his career away from him and potentially ruin his life.

Had Alfie been a touch more sensitive in the head who knows how it could have affected him?

That's why I'll never ever ever have a good word about 'Keano' and why I'll never be able to accept him as a good player, sure he had a lot going for him but a true legend or great would never ever fucking do what he did. Simple as that.

Though I am a hypocrit cos when Bally stamped on Ronaldo I did just think 'take that you twat'

Hmmmmmmmmm i think we all did
