Roy Keane Quits Sunderland

[Geo23]

Roy Keane has left his position as manager of Sunderland, BBC Sport understands.
Sunderland have yet to confirm the exit of Keane, who was set to give a news conference at 1300 GMT ahead of Saturday's game at Manchester United.
The Black Cats are 18th in the Premier League and have lost five of their last six games.
The ex-Manchester United midfielder took over at Sunderland in 2006 and led them to the Premier League in 2006-07.
Keane, 37, has said in recent weeks that his future may not be certain hinting that he could leave the club.

Not Confirmed but looks really likey he has walked

and Its a big shame to see a good manager quit .

[Jamie!]

Keegan-esque?

Takes all the credit when they do well but bottles it when everything starts to crumble.

Good move by him. Wouldn't want to tarnish his CV by being fired from Sunderland.

Keano hasn't proved anything, apart from managing to get us into the premiership at first attempt, other than that he has had a board which gave him all the freedom in the world and alot of money to spend. spent 40 million to keep us up in the first season, then over 45million on players in the second season and we find ourselves in the bottom 3.

Keane will never get the same ammount of freedom as he did at sunderland, [unless he goes to manage ireland.]

In the end he's bottled the chance.

[Minstrels]

silly move. hes had great backing by the chairman. shows he is inept.

[Geraint]

the players weren't listening to him. it was inevitable.

If thats the case, then the players must of realised that hes lost the plot.

ie. dropping Anton ferdinand one of our best defenders.

[Grainger@CUFC]

Could be seen coming with the results they've had. Should've at least been in there to try and get some safety back into their position - would have been better than simply walking away when in trouble.

[Andys]

sore looser.
allardyce is favourite for the new gaffa.

[Titch]

rumours flying around on some forums he has left becuase he has been offered a coach role at united so he can take over from fergi when he leaves? presonally i think thats complete ********, just thought see wt u lot think.
