The rest of the panel - Gary Neville, Ian Wright, Jamie Carragher and Jill Scott - cracked up with laughter at Keane's retelling of the story. Neville asked how the ex-Ireland man's wife Theresa reacted to his decision to get involved in the situation. Keane added: "She wasn't too bad with it. She said they were really rude." Neville then quoted his former United team-mate Keane's comment about "putting a marker down". And the hardman joked: "It's like a pre-season game, Charity Shield, studs down the back of somebody. "They were still annoying the rest of the week but I kept my distance. "A few nights later I saw them having a few words with this other guy. "I went over to support him a little bit, but it wasn't as bad as I'm kind of making out." Keane also went on holiday with his family - including various grandkids - to celebrate his 54th birthday. He took to Instagram with adorable snaps of him playing with the youngsters and relaxing in the swimming pool. And Keane will become a grandad again in a few months when his daughter Leah welcomes her baby. Leah and Southampton defender Taylor Harwood-Bellis - who got engaged in Italy last year - announced the news of their pregnancy on social media this week. 3 Keane also went on holiday with his grandkids Credit: INSTAGRAM

Billionaire owner of Willie Mullins' ‘very classy' new £300,000 horse confirmed and Cheltenham Festival target decided
THE billionaire owner of Willie Mullins' 'very classy' new £300,000 horse has been confirmed. And her Cheltenham Festival target has already been decided. 1 The latest Horse Racing Ireland update showed Ryanair boss Michael O'Leary's Gigginstown House Stud as the owner of Poetisa. Mullins and right-hand man Harold Kirk saw off Nicky Henderson to land the Cheltenham winner at the Goffs sales in May. Formerly trained by Toby Bulgin, Poetisa won a mares' bumper at the home of jumps in April. Sent off 20-1 under former champion jockey Brian Hughes, she stayed on well up the hill after meeting trouble to win by a neck. Poetisa commanded a price tag of £42,000 as a three-year-old but her value soared after the Cheltenham victory. And Mullins clearly liked what he saw, with her pedigree suggesting big things lie in store in the future. Poetisa is from the same family as multiple Grade 1-winning superstar Macs Joy. The Jessica Harrington-trained hurdler won over half a million quid from 31 career races, which included nine victories. And O'Leary will be hoping for something similar from his newly-acquired mare. Gigginstown House were also listed as the new owners of French import Mino Des Mottes, who it is thought is also in training with Mullins. But it's Poetisa who Kirk has big hopes for. And he had already decided her target for the Festival when splashing the cash a few months ago. The bloodstock expert said: "She's a Cheltenham winner already and she'll only improve. "She was very classy when she won. She's a lovely mare and hopefully she'll go down the mares' route over hurdles as there's a big programme for these mares now." Poetisa can be backed at 10-1 for the Mares Novices' Hurdle, with Mullins' Champion Bumper winner Bambino Fever the 3-1 favourite. . Remember to gamble responsibly

Roy Keane reveals how his summer cruise holiday almost descended into chaos after he confronted four fellow holidaymakers when they 'manhandled' female DJ: 'I had to put a marker down'
has opened up on a chaotic incident that took place on his one of his holidays this summer. Hard-hitting pundit Keane was discussing his time away from the game over recent months on the latest episode of Stick To Football. When he was asked about where he had been, Keane remarkably revealed that he almost came to blows during one of his trips. 'I've had a great summer,' he said. 'No tournaments, bit of a break. I went on a cruise and really enjoyed that. 'I did (get annoyed on) the first night. I put a marker down on the first night to a few people. They weren't coming up to me but they were just being rude to other people.' When pressed on what he meant, Keane added: 'They were just being rude to other people, rude to the woman playing the music and getting aggro with her and I stepped in. 'Listen lads calm down, this is a nice boat remember but these lads about four of them who were about the same age as me, maybe a bit older, they were being really rude to this woman DJ and manhandling her. 'And I just went over to them and went "lads just calm down" so I sat down and four of them came across ready to... no I didn't have them, it didn't kick off but it was pretty close.' Keane's story left Gary Neville in hysterics, before he asked how his wife Theresa had reacted. 'She wasn't too bad with it,' Keane responded. 'She said they were really rude.' Neville then joked about Keane's comments in regards to 'putting a marker down', to which Keane quipped: 'It's like a pre-season game, Charity Shield, studs down the back of somebody. 'They were still annoying the rest of the week but I kept my distance and a few nights later I saw them having a few words with this other guy. 'I went over to support him a little bit, but it wasn't as bad as I'm kind of making out.' Keane's hilarious anecdote was well received by his colleagues and it came just a day after it was announced he would become a grandfather for the fourth time. "It didn't kick off, but it was pretty close!" 😅 New season, same Roy... 😂 — The Overlap (@WeAreTheOverlap) August 14, 2025 On Wednesday, his daughter Leah shared her pregnancy alongside England international Taylor Harwood-Bellis. Leah shared black and white photos of her positive tests, baby bump, and scans of the foetus alongside Harwood-Bellis in their car. He and Leah are engaged and looked over the moon as they shared their news with the world with a touching video, captioned: 'Half of me, half of you.' The Manchester United legend already has three grandchildren and welcomed his latest in April with a nod at one of his classic punditry lines: 'My new grandson, big baby.'
