Keanes Agony over testimonial game

Last updated : 04 May 2006 By David Scott
Manchester is preparing itself to be taken over by the famous hooped shirts next Tuesday as thousands of hoops fan travel to watch Roy Keanes testimonial. Keane has never been a fan of these games and has been vocal in the past about them. Proceeds from this game are being diverted to charities and Keane has said that having this testimonial will help bring closure to his career and his relationship with the United fans. However there is still the agony over which shirt to wear and for Keane this may be the biggest agony of all. On occasions like this it is so hard to please everyone and it is fairly standard practice to play for the player to play for both sides on the night but what a dilemna he faces, what shirt should he play in last?. Should he wear the red of united who are the home team and who are honouring him with the game and who are the the team he made his name with and whose fans hold him in the highest esteem? Or should he finish the game wearing the sacred hoops?. He still playd for Celtic and he has been a lifelong fan. Tricky ehh? One thing is for sure though, it's going to be a fantastic night in Manchester
