it is i was surprised to see going into the game too. I have actually gone to a game in which he was a supporter like me aswell. the Heinken Cup Semi Final (The Rubgy European Champions League) last April between Munster (who we were supporting) and London Wasps. It was on up in Dublin almost 50000. They had a video screen in the stadium and the camera zoomed in on him before the match started and he got a huge cheer

Roy Keane goes to a few Celtic matches.
He has been to games against Rangers, and was also in Seville when we played Porto in the UEFA Cup Final.....

I think he said a few years back that if he was ever to leave man utd he go play with celtic. in fact he might be playing against celtic next summer. here is a report from www.fai.ie

The Football Association of Ireland today announced that a game against Glasgow Celtic has been arranged as part of Ireland’s preparations for the World Cup Qualifiers in the summer of 2005.

A Brian Kerr Republic of Ireland XI will play the current Scottish Champions in Glasgow on Sunday 29th May 2005 as part of the Jackie McNamara Testimonial celebrations.

Ireland play Israel at Lansdowne Road on 4th June and the Faroe Islands in Torshavn five days later on 8th June and Manager, Brian Kerr, sees the Celtic game as an important part of the preparations for these two assignments.

Kerr said: “I am delighted to be involved in the Jackie’s Testimonial celebrations as he has been a great servant to the game in an era when loyalty to one club is unusual. As well as strengthening the good relationship with Celtic, the game itself will be very useful as it will keep our players in good match playing condition as the English season will have ended some three weeks earlier.”

I wonder whether Italy would ever play Milan in a friendly?
