I was there. I get my tickets from one of the backroom staff I know. The lads were to go to the pictures. Stan was outside the hotel waiting on them to come down. He charged into the hotel, obviously terrified, while the nutter ran towards the water. Gardai everywhere withing minutes.

Who the f*** gave Roy Keane a replica Uzi???

Apparently, his labrador was also armed with an AK47.

I must admit that I felt like doing the same a few times during his second spell at Anfield.

 

He was so slow he seemed to be actually moving backwards, a bit of gun toting from the front of the Main Stand may have got him going...
