yeah. they flew 10 hours to tokyo, changed planes and flew ten more hours to saipan. for a world cup that was in japan. utter madness. you know the japanese would have rolled out absolute world class training facilities somewhere in the japanese countryside. but mick had a friend in saipan...
I was born and raised on Saipan. Nothing but chill vibes, nice people, beautiful beaches, bbq every weekends and beautiful stars at night. You all should visit Saipan one day, you won’t regret it!
@@Jumpmaster337 it's in one of the other videos, with keane & Neville on stage, interviewer wouldn't let Neville speak a couple of times when he tried to interject. I think it's the one where hes talking about fergie & leaving united.
If mick mc carthy had of been cuter he would have left Roy join the squad later. Mick wanted to equalise him. He wasn't equal, he was an odd ball captain. But ultimately what was good for Roy was good for us.
Ireland drew with Germany, progressed to the last 16 and were eliminated on penalties by a good Spain side. The 2002 tournament was hardly a disaster for them.
@@ThisIsMyRodrick that’s pure delusion he was easily the best player on the field every game he played with them have you seen his game against Holland ? Outstanding
@@Rm-ss5gv I am not talking his performances. I am talking about the situation in the dressing rooms. I am trying to think from the players perspective with Keane having a Temper tantrum over ham sandwiches and dry-cleaning. Sure the real culprits Are the FAI, we know that but to take it out on the players or Mick was madness.
Roy was a great leader, but then you can't blame McCarthy because his record was also great. such a shame that it had to come to blows, because with Roy in that ireland team we could of won that world cup... I'm sick to death of seeing the discussion it's like revising wasted potential of what could of been

@@Fintanflaherty Mick had a fantastic record as manager of Ireland. We were competing against the best. Unbeaten in qualifying against Portugal, beating the Dutch to a place in the world cup, taking Spain all the way to penalties... It's a shame Keane wasn't involved in the end.
I'd say we've as much a chance of winning the Euro Millions or the National Lottery as Ireland winning the 2002 World Cup even if Keano was in the right frame of mind to play.
Arguably one of the best players not to play in a World Cup, sounded more like a holiday to be fair, one player done his ankle ligaments walking on their training pitch and said ‘If I was running , I’d of broken it’ , he was used to high end preparation for each club game, and this is the World Cup Finals. ‘Do me a favour, ur livin in cuckoo land’ hehe
Still why he went out of order is another one! The FAI and McCarthy were badly organized and Saipan wasn't the right place to be! They didn't even practice penalties before the Spain game either! Mick had to ask around who wanted to take a penalty..
Shay was never much good after he left Newcastle, think he sold out and played for money from then. He was quite good for a season at Man City and then awful, embarrassing for Villa.
@@cormackhotzie7874 That's what I said! He was brilliant at Newcastle for ten years (was inconsistent until Sir Bobby Robson came in), and had one good season at City, but then lost his place to Joe Hart & was rubbish for Villa. Age caught him up and he should have just stayed at Newcastle really.
@@eamonmac2751 He had one season in the first team at City, then sat on the bench for a whole season behind Joe Hart (Given only played 2 cup games and 0 league games). Then went to Villa and lost his place to Brad Guzan and got loaned out to lower leagues 😂😂😂 Then went to Stoke and didn't play a game for two seasons 🐐 He ruined his career to win ONE league cup!
People can go back and wonder and ask, and want to know what happened. It was a great chance for ireland, that roy keane messed up. Those chances do not come up very often for teams like ireland
@John Brennan What are u on about u are still talking about an issue that didn't happen on the football field or something that resulted in any trophies. Even some of Ur own people don't want to talk about it. Goodness me u are getting triggered about football 😂 why are people so soft nowadays.
How do you make that one out? Met him a good few times and a more sincere, honest man you will struggle to meet, never forgot his roots and does a lot for charity that he doesn't disclose, plus he is an Irish footballing icon !!!
2002 would yous just move on, you know there are world cups since then and guess what ? Ireland didn’t even qualify, that’s what we need to think about
Have you ever looked up where saipan is on a map? It's truly astonishing
Nah but i will now cheers bud
yeah i remember when I was 12 and seeing it about a continent away from the country they were playing in
yeah. they flew 10 hours to tokyo, changed planes and flew ten more hours to saipan. for a world cup that was in japan. utter madness. you know the japanese would have rolled out absolute world class training facilities somewhere in the japanese countryside. but mick had a friend in saipan...
Yea,Idid at the time,but anyone I told said I was wrong and that it was part off Japan.

Two legends of Irish football here. Always had a soft spot for given even though I wasn’t a Newcastle fan
Superb goalie! Given even tho a little short showed great athleticism throughout his career 👍
Right, over to gift grub for a replay. All credit due like.
Great to hear Shay talking about his pride in putting on the green shirt and walking out to that sea of green :) Spine-tingling stuff!
Is this the guy who made an absolute show of himself when he wouldn't let Gary Neville speak?
I was thinking the same haha
Yep it was
Joe Molloy.
What happened?

Even though I think Mick did a decent job for us overall I thought his man management of Keane at Saipan was terrible.
I haven’t heard the story and who is this Roy fellow?
Tennis player from Dalkey
Roy Hull... he carries a mischievous ostrich around under his right arm
Congratz.. finally you have internet.. dont shy to google search Roy Keane...
A man called Roy went to saipan and murdered every kitten there and was blamed for Ireland losing the World Cup because of it. True story
@@kmmining1359 did you mean Rod? Don’t make me Godwin’s law you.
Roy Keane is right and that’s that
Ireland drew with Germany, progressed to the last 16 and were eliminated on penalties by a good Spain side. The 2002 tournament was hardly a disaster for them.
It’s about what it could’ve been tho
@@Rm-ss5gv I feel like the team played better without him. Roy only came across as arrogant.

Does it matter anymore?
Roy laughing at himself on ‘Gift Grub’ ...savage 🤣🤣🤣👏👏👏
Any link to the gift grub referred to
The Irish players were pathetic not wanting Keane there just coz he has high demands
Why does given have two cameras set up? I always heard that shay given was a bit of a narcissist
How long ago was this now christ will it still be a topic in 10 yrs
Gay
One photographer,no pitch and no kit.. amazing.
Roy Keane has standards
Shay's hair line is tripping me out
Shay's hairline is still in Saipan!
Great film
Roy was right what he done, the fai was and is a shambles.
Get over it lads!!!
Hate this bloke! Imagine shutting Neville up!

Irish always fight with each other and work in chaos. Why do you need an RandR prior to training for a world cup? Shambles.

Roy Keane DID play in a world cup in 1994 you lunatic 😂
Roy Keane, much as I have always admired him, was totally out of order in Saipan. No excuses, no ifs ands or buts.... He was just bang out of order.
Still why he went out of order is another one! The FAI and McCarthy were badly organized and Saipan wasn't the right place to be! They didn't even practice penalties before the Spain game either! Mick had to ask around who wanted to take a penalty..

That's just age. He was amazing for many years

After the FAI . .and the John Delaney story . .who fkn cares anymore
it's gone, it's over, it's history and more to the point....it's boring, move on.

I can't believe he actually blamed shay. Cmon that's a bit much... Mick and Roy probably had something to do with it..
He was being tongue in cheek. A joke.
Eejit. Clearly a joke
U lot need to move.
