1:54I feel like I'm far away. I'm not meant to. Well, move in. Move in where you come from.

1:59Stick to Football Hosts: Yeah, yeah. Hey, come on. That's the money shot. Three most overrated things in life. Parties. Smiling. And fireworks. I got 4 ,000 to get a road and the guy went sold to me. Are we getting medals? No, you're not getting a medal. The other worst one is stags and hen do's and women walking to the airport were like, learn the signs on us. I love it. I love it. Fizio came to see me the next morning, but seven or eight of the players were proper feeling, they were like Achilles. That's clever, isn't it? I've made£800 or£900, but I've probably lost the dressing room. So I'm having to go to the players, I went, I'd better get my f***ing money tonight.

2:37Stick to Football Hosts: Oh no, you see somebody, we see people then, we see them again tomorrow, and they say, I saw you yesterday. You mugged the stories that people said about me getting banned from pubs and bars in Manchester. Roy, did you ever say sorry to anyone during your career? I don't think I've ever done anything wrong.

2:54Stick to Football Hosts: You know what used to annoy me? You know the lads who do the massages? They'd all get a bit cocky, wouldn't they? They'd settle into the club or the team. Then they'd think they're running the show and they've got the music. And then the team wins something and all the masseurs would be out in the pitch. And you're like, just relax, lads. What are you digging out the masseuse for? No, no, they all get a bit cocky. They all do every one of them. United was the same. So the thing about masseuses for me, I can't remember who it was. I'm telling you. It was a manager who told me. And they want bonuses.

3:20Stick to Football Hosts: They want to be in on the bonuses. Do you know something? I know what you're saying. We're having a night out, free bar. Then they're coming with all their mates. You're like, you're bringing your mates? You're like, relax. Fucking hell. Are we getting medals? No, you're not getting a medal. Am I right? Please bring me up here. What used to piss me off is they'd come round and say, can you sign this year? Yeah, I'm telling you. It's his 100 cap. Am I right, Gary? Yeah, of course, lads. He hasn't got a cap. Exactly. Stop it, you two. Yeah. Do you know something? They'd end up wearing their headstands as if they were like players.

3:52Stick to Football Hosts: You know what I mean? all the threatening gear. But when they're coming off the bus. Yeah, and they have the headphones, you're going, just relax. Relax. Oh, my God. Anyone selling their car? And then they're trying to buy a player's car on the cheap and all. You're like, lads. Sorry, guys. Sorry. Sorry. Go on, there, before you choke. Sorry. You know what I'm talking about. It was a manager, I can't remember what it was, who said to me, with the masseurs, are amongst the most important employees for a manager. That's rubbish. Why? Who said that? Who said that? Give us the name. And I'm trying to think, he said, because I will probably see, I'm trying to think exactly who it was.

4:29Stick to Football Hosts: And he said, because the manager will spend probably like a minute or two minutes talking to a player a day. The master has them for an hour, one-on-one, and whatever he fills their head with when they're sort of whinging or they're whining. That's my point, Gary. It backs up. And he said, basically, you need your master as they're the rooms of truth, whereby you need people in there who are good people, who can sort of bring them back online, not let them get carried away, who are... No, no, what happens to them? They become mates for them. I'm telling you you play golf with them and then they think they're a coach and they think they're a manager and they're best buddies with all the players and before you know they're an agent yeah you're an agent thank you very much I'm there with you Roy thank you and then the lads I couldn't understand the lads you just get massages right before the match but they'd have a massage there was a lad we used to go away with Ireland and he brought his own he had his own guy come with us that's another story but I used to be looking before the match and you'd be a big game and he'd be having a proper massage like you'd have if you were away with your wife for a weekend, he's getting his back done.

5:24Stick to Football Hosts: I'm looking, I'm going, you cannot be ready to go to battle. By the time he came off the bench, he's been getting a massage now for 40 minutes and he's all kind of like loose.

5:40Stick to Football Hosts: When I used to get on, I used to just get like my calves. Yeah, I get that. It took like five minutes. But these lads are getting their arms and he's coming off the bench, baby oil everywhere. then the game starts you look at him he can't raise a gallop mentally I need that massage stop doing the massages you're fucking useless I'll have a massage the massage is the answer I said to all these players when you were younger would you get massages before games you were 16, 17 no you weren't so everyone knows if I don't get a massage before training they think they can't play properly Jesus good point these massage I get rid of all of them honestly I get rid of all of them you can't get rid of massage No, you would.

6:18Stick to Football Hosts: Maybe one. You keep one fella. How have we gotten to this from all of us? You know something? You're never quite sure when the pin's going to come out with a grenade on this show. You just say the simple word massage, and all of a sudden... I didn't realise you had that much pin. Do you know what else they do? Do you know what else they do? They hang around and they get players' boots. Do you not want these boots? And they end up having loads of boots, or lads' trainers, just like scavengers in the dressing room. Get rid of all of them. Leave this. No, get rid of all of them, missus, honestly.

6:47Stick to Football Hosts: everyone and then you've managers going they're really important no they're not important that's my point they're not important I think the point that was trying to be made was that they have a lot of time one on one with the players and what they say to the players is really important exactly and they give them a lot of bull but at the same time at the same time it does run into other things yeah of course the medical staff we've seen become agents anyway Waza this is your Mythbusters Kickman Kickman as well Kickman Kipner a nuisance. Tickets. Bonuses. Fucking nurses. I like nurses. We need nurses.

7:27Stick to Football Hosts: We don't need nurses. Sorry, Wayne. Are you guys for someone else? No, no, no. I think we're going to concentrate on... Well, sorry. We were going to concentrate on wise. Well, that's the nice thing about this show. It veers off in different directions beautifully. Shaking hands. Let's put shaking hands in. I don't mind shaking hands. Oh, no, you see somebody, we see people then, we see them again tomorrow and they shake hands. I saw you yesterday. We see them at dinner today. How you got? We went to a restaurant and everything. Roy came over and shake my hand. He went down and washed his hands and he came back one of the way his came.

8:01I'm going to fucking just wash my hands. I waited, I shake my hand. I think I washed his hands again. I think I washed his hands again. Why did he shake his hands? Did he say hello? Did he say hello? So why didn't you just go like that? Just do the fists. You're not doing a fist bump. You are awkward. I don't like this puns here. Yeah, but then you don't have to shake your hand. You are awkward.

8:19Stick to Football Hosts: Why is the way to shake my hand? I'll never again see him. It's like, oh, you see people regularly go, I just saw you, yeah. Ten minutes ago. He's so funny. That was funny. Hugs. No, he's so awkward with you guys. It's just like, hi, Gary, hiya. And then you get a boy and you're like... What'd you do? You don't know what to do? His nickname is Hedgehog. He calls himself Hedgehog. It's not my nickname, Gary. You try and hug him. Why? Because he's a PR. Yeah, but when he tries to hug him, he does. The Hulk should be... He's a bit like this. The Hulk's got to be people you might like, you know what I mean?

8:50Stick to Football Hosts: Especially in your life. But how do you want to be greeted? Because I do feel... It's not at the head. I always... I do the hug with him as well because he always goes like this. But he... I do it on purpose. I love it. My wife and my kids, just the Hulk and my grandchildren and the dogs, and that's it. Hugs for nobody else. What was your pre-season like, Roy's manager did you have influence over it did you leave it to your coach oh yeah of course you would a bit of input but obviously you have staff around you the fitness coaches to look after yeah all of it what we've been discussing pretty straightforward little trips to Portugal then you'd have a training camp over there so yeah all the pretty normal stuff and then you're on about results then you might get bogged down by results pre-season you're thinking we're not looking sharp like you said the other day before the warm-up United look sharp in the warm-up and you're worried no you're constantly worried about our lads looking fit I think the one I remember we'd done Portugal one time we had a training camp but we took the players down to the beach and you know I was trying to mix things up and we had them running up and down to the beach and I was like it was great and then getting to see the lads have a swim I thought yeah listen we're ahead of everybody here you know what I mean nobody's doing this physio gave this evening the next morning but seven or eight of the players a proper feeling they're like Achilles from running on the sand obviously that's clever isn't it yeah a bit of a rest day today lads yeah no problem but yeah Just the normal stuff.

10:15Stick to Football Hosts: How many times have you sent off? Not that many. I think seven. Let's go through. Seven or eight. That's a lot. There's going to be more than that. No. For a midfielder, for a combative midfielder, it's not a lot. I'm here in 13. I'm here in wrong. How many times has Roy sent off? Do we have any stats on this? 13. It's not 13. 13. Yeah, 13. That's not true. It's 13-0 competition. No, it's not even that many. It still counts. We've definitely got... I want to say seven or eight. We've definitely got 11. Let's just work through these now. Let's have a work through. If I'm wrong, I won't have any cake.

10:49Stick to Football Hosts: Well, it's definitely not seven or eight. Right. Right, the first one was the FA Cup final. FA Cup final? Semi-final. Villa Park sent off for a stamp on Gareth Southgate. Yeah, and he deserved it. He's still getting red. Are you going to comment on all of him? The second one. You always said the defenders never be on your back. You know what I mean? Always be on your feet. The second one. Second one. Second one, 1995, August 28th, early in the season, Blackburn at Ewood Park, dismissed in an ill-tempered match. I was unlucky with that one. No, I was. That was two yellow cards. Second one was for diving, when I was second on for, I think it was a penalty.

11:25Stick to Football Hosts: You dived. No, I didn't dive, that's my point. Third one. The third one, the Premiership versus Middlesbrough at Old Trafford. Keane continued to be dogged by a red mist, and he was sent off for a third time in six months. Yeah, that was a bit silly. Fjord, remember the striker? Fjord, yeah. Yanaga. What did you do? Tried to punch him. I think we won the game. Tried to punch him, didn't you? I didn't connect, really.

11:54Stick to Football Hosts: Fourth one, Premier League versus Southampton at the Dell. Keane was sent off again as United lose 6-3. What were you sent off for then? I played the game. I played the game. Well, you were old. I don't even remember. You were all out there. You played well, obviously. You gave up six. It was a kit, though. It was a kit, so... I feel like we're in court and you're reading out allegations. This is his rap sheet. Where are we now? Is that four? That's four. That's four. The fifth one is the FA Cup semi-final at Arsenal at Villa Park, where it says he was somewhat... Keane was somewhat unfortunate to be sent out of two bookable offences.

12:29Stick to Football Hosts: Exactly. Oliver Mars. He came over and tackled Oliver Mars. Oliver Mars, yeah. I think I was covering for you again. I don't know. And that was Ellery. Ellery set me up four times, yeah. Did you have a bit of a beef with Ellery? Was he a principal? Yes, I had a problem with Ellery as well. At some posh school in England. Yeah, Harrow. And he had that look over me. Yeah, he had that same with me. Irish. He was definitely looking down on me. I was thinking, yes. I said to him, he'd been to the tunnel before the game. Saras, I know he's going to book me. He's got me off three or four times. Like a class system thing.

12:59Stick to Football Hosts: Definitely. Oh, definitely. He was looking down on me. Without a doubt. Without a doubt. I got the same vibe from Ellery. Thanks. Without a doubt. There you go. We were all right with Harrow work, weren't we? Yeah, Elamie, yeah. 6-1. Premiership versus Newcastle at St James' Park. Keane was again dismissed for collecting two yellow cards. Yeah. I saw him lose it. I saw that one. You proper lost it then, didn't you? Yeah, I did. Do you know what? I was more with the team as well than... Our team or your team? Our team, just so we gave away a goal, I think, towards the end. I don't know if you were playing, but Wes.

13:30Stick to Football Hosts: Wes was poor for the goal. I was more angry at Wes. I'm sure I hope Wes was playing. You know when they wouldn't give you the ball back at one of the M &M?

13:42Stick to Football Hosts: when he's trying to get the ball back. We're seven in. Had anger management classes started by then? Come on, where else? That's it. The seventh, Charity Shield versus Chelsea at Wembley. Why you? A red card for a reckless challenge on Gus Poirier. Yeah. Was it reckless? Yeah, it was. I enjoyed it. That stage of the season, why are you like, what are you doing? This is Charity Shield. This is a happy name. We have to put a marker on early in the season. What part of the game, was that early on in the game? I'm not sure. I'm not sure. Did you win it? I'm not sure. He didn't care. What was the challenge, if you don't mind me asking?

14:14Stick to Football Hosts: I think he was shielded, and I think I just went up. I think right down the back of the calf. Oh. Saw one. Oh, Jesus. Shame. Eighth, the Premier League versus Manchester City at Old Trafford. Of course, yeah. A straight red for a disgraceful knee-high foul on Alfie Harland. I'm treating out the description of what was on the papers at the time. Yeah, but you didn't help either. I didn't help with what? Running off to the lines, man, saying it's only a yellow. Is that true? It's true. Did you? Yeah. Gary ran over going, it's only a yellow. So when you say that to an official, he's going to go, well, that must be a red.

14:54Stick to Football Hosts: Why would you say, it's only a yellow? Don't even book me. So I'm at fault for basically your being sent off. I don't think that tackle was that bad. I really don't. I know it looks bad. You know what a player does is a somersault. Yeah. But the damage is... It was knee high, though, wasn't it? Yeah, but I was never going to injure him in that tackle. You can't injure a player with that type of tackle. As we know, if you play the game, you know when a fella's trying to injure a player. Yeah. It's just the fact when someone does a somersault, it looks kind of worse than what it was. And it was a city game, it was a rubbish game, and it was a bit...

15:24Stick to Football Hosts: I think we were all frustrated. I think we'd just been knocked out of Europe a couple of days before it. So... I remember watching you walk off as well. And I'd been sent off. No, I got injured. I'd done my crew shit up at Leeds. And people sent it... Against him. Well, obviously I tried to trip him and again, players, he was stood over me when I'd done my cruise ship, which was a bad injury and he was saying some nasty things when I was injured and I just thought, listen, well, obviously we'll meet again. What's the ninth? Because like... We're at ninth. We're at ninth. 2001, Premier League, Newcastle at St James' Park dismissed for a second successive season at St James' Park for throwing the ball at Alan Shearer.

16:04Stick to Football Hosts: He then made an attempt to lash out at the striker as he made his way off the field. I thought that was the one we were talking about earlier. No, no, the one early was for two yellow cards. Oh, right. No, yeah, that was the one I was angry with. You forgot. Yeah. You forgot one? Right. I forgot. There's Porto as well. So there is more than seven. Tenth. Remember you said there's no way for that, Inram. You said, go on. It's definitely not 13. Sent off by Uriah Rennie in injury time of the one-all draw after elbowing Jason McAteer following a number of heated exchanges throughout the game. Yeah.

16:37Stick to Football Hosts: You forgot that one? Yeah, but I should have. Okay. He deserved that. Jason McKenzie. He was your Irish teammate, colleague. Yeah, I was just thinking that. I wouldn't go that far. Were you mates or not? Absolutely not. Oh, okay. Just because you play with somebody doesn't mean you're mates. Yeah, but at international level. Do you know what? What you see at the media players, players who showed their moats off. Yeah. I didn't mind lads kicking me or booting me. Honestly, McIntyre as usual, I had plenty to say for himself. Yeah. But I didn't deserve to be sent off in that game. Absolutely not.

17:06Stick to Football Hosts: If you ever look back and I didn't even catch him. 11th, February 25th, 2003, Champions League versus Porto at Stadio de Dragao. With his side trailing 2-1 in the first leg of the first knockout round, the Red Miss descended for Keane again. Sorry, I'm not trying to antagonise you, but it's just the reports. It sounds like you're enjoying it. It's brilliant. With four minutes remaining, the Irishman needlessly trod on the Porto keeper Povic to bow by as he tried to chase down a loose ball. I think I remember that one. I think I was playing. Yeah. No, I felt bad after that one. That is letting the team down.

17:44Yeah, what's happened? When he's going, obviously the captain, why are you feeling? Because you're seeing him like, what's wrong with him? Can you say something to him when you get in the dressing room? Did you say anything?

17:53Stick to Football Hosts: Did any of you lot say anything? Truthfully right. No, no, listen, I couldn't take criticism, but any time lads come in or the manager come, I would be feeling bad. Don't worry. I wouldn't be sitting there going, relaxed about it. So I think the players would recognise when someone's feeling bad and going, there's no point in going there. Did you apologise? I'm not sure. I must have apologised once or twice. The manager would say something like, what the hell, if he thought it was like a needless send-off, like me at Tottenham against Gillian Miller, it was stupid. I mean, I was already on a booking and I went for him a second time.

18:24Stick to Football Hosts: Gary, what the fucking hell are you playing at, son? That's what you'd get. And that better be it, you know what I mean? The guilt would be kicking in. You're right. Yeah, it's massive guilt. I mean, you feel terrible. Yeah, the fact sometimes, right, when the manager used to come in and say nothing to you, that's really worse. They just look at you with disgust and you're like... The thing is, back then, there's not the WhatsApp group where you get home and write a big, long message of apologies. Is that what happens? Yeah, sometimes I think you get that on a night, that you get home and you're like, oh, look, I'm really sorry.

18:53Stick to Football Hosts: No, but no players ever either come in and had a go at me, to be fair. No, but I don't think they had a go at other players. But we never done that. We never could have a go. Even when Eric done that, Eric kicked the fan. None of us ever came in after the game. Eric, you're a bit off the board. What happened? Did you know what happened that night when Eric kicked the fan? Yeah. In real time. Because he was just being substituted. Yeah, and again, we talk about anger and the emotion, and that's why we all played the game. And Eric was obviously being sent off, hadn't he? And he's gotten off, and it happens.

19:21In the moment, that's the last thing. This is what I'm saying. I can't even compute why I've done that to the referee. When you're going off, and then all of a sudden, he shouts what he shouts. That's it. Was the 18 ,000 fine?

19:33Stick to Football Hosts: Was that the damage to the referees' room or your wage? I just keep picturing them with this little portable PB. You know what, I was trying to... At the time, I was trying to figure with my agents. I wanted to pay them. I wanted to pay them in pound coins. 18 ,000 pound coins. Because you have to pay it yourself out of your own account. They want it. And I was desperate to do it. But at the time, the manager I was with, he said, you can't do that. I was so angry. I could not get over the anger of that one. OK, so going back to Roy. Right, right, we can't... I got sent off once for Ireland. So there you go, that's 12.

20:05Stick to Football Hosts: And we think there's 13, but we've only got... I said, I told you... We've only got 12 at the moment. Yeah, it's not 13. Well, it's 12. He said 13. You were saying seven. The other worst one is stags and hen do's. People go on hen weeks, and when they walk into the airport, we're like, learn the signs on us. I love it. I love it. God, really? Yeah. and pictures of their boyfriend that they're getting married to, and all their friends have t-shirts. And they've got all the masks on and stuff. Oh my God, our men, we're all going to Spain for a week. With silver cowboy hats and stuff. I love it, go get it.

20:40I love it. Have you never been on a stag do?

20:44Stick to Football Hosts: Er, one. Did you have one? Well, every week it was a stag. Every week. I went on one stag. And what was the thing? Where was it? Every week was a stag. I'm wearing a double. What were you dressed as? No, I was not dressed as a leprechaun. Did you see that picture of him as a leprechaun? As a leprechaun. Put them glasses on. Right, give me your glasses. He won't wear it. We went on a stag. This is Roy on a stag now. I had a moment at the stag where I went, is this really it? We'd obviously been drinking all night and we had an early start in the morning, drinking like Bacardi Breezers. And in the afternoon, we went back to the rooms to get changed at our hotel.

21:24Stick to Football Hosts: we'd been drinking all night and all morning so you're going really you should be going to bed I was walking past this room, it's about 4 in the afternoon and I'm like, struggling you know when people leave their food outside their door, like room service I was like, I sat down and it was an old bowl of soup I was like, no I didn't know the body experience going, what are you doing and went back and got changed and went back, oh my god you ate someone else's soup Yeah, just soup. Oh, Roy! That is disgusting. I swear to God. But I did, I just thought, is this it? Has it come to this? That is actually...

22:04Stick to Football Hosts: And you know, when you go to these stags and the guy who got married, you just knew they weren't going to stay married. You know what I mean? Everyone gets divorced. You just knew they weren't going to stay together. You're thinking that as a stag. Well, I was right. They didn't stay together. Of course. Like most people. Put them glasses on, Roy. Yeah. I want to see what they look like. Dressed up on a stag do. Did it work? Did you get barred from Larry Lloyd's pub, The Stage Door, when at Nottingham Forest? Rubbish. Do you remember the stories that people said about me getting barred from pubs and bars in Manchester?

22:40Stick to Football Hosts: You just can't remember. No, no, I can't remember, all right? Absolute rubbish. Yeah? No, I never heard. Where have these come from, do we know? Ben made them up. I got thrown through a bar window. We're nodding him. We've got the body in order. We've got the body in order.

22:59Here's a video.

23:01Stick to Football Hosts: No, I didn't. Tell us again. I was in a wine bar one night and I'd just come to United. I remember I went back to Forrest to check on my house. The reserves were playing, but I had a kind of sneaky night out. I was in this wine bar and, again, I'd just gone to United. But I'd been to Forrest. obviously I used to go drinking when I was a forest player and a couple of idiots in there the usual stuff particularly bonks and I was drinking it was like a wine bar but I used to drink the wine from the bottle and I wouldn't have the glass it was like cheap wine six quid and I was with a few lads and a few words said and this guy and he threw me out through the window I went through the window and the door I went through the window landed out in the street glass it was like the Wild West I was on the floor but I still had my bottle of wine I was wearing glass everywhere Not that part.

23:49Stick to Football Hosts: You were thrown out the stage door, not bound from it. No, this is a different bar. This is a different bar. Not that one. I was never, never bad. I don't think I was ever set foot in that place.

Do you see Olly Pope strolling out at number three? Tuffers is more likely to get through his first 20 ball. I think that's a stat. No, that is a stat. We'll bring you analysis, reaction and interviews in what's going to be a huge year for cricket. Two players, Joe Root, Virat Kohli. If you were playing outside our house, I'd shut the curtains. There'll be stories from our playing days. we'll be answering all your questions and we'll be having lots of fun along the way.

26:41Stick to Football Hosts: Do you get recognised down the abattoir? Do you know what, right? The boomer's going to be crucial. Absolutely the greatest boulder of all time. Would you agree with that? No. No? No. Stick to cricket brought to you by Betfair.

26:59That party did a night, honestly. Yeah, but what do you do? You don't drink, no, so you're... No, I know, it's just annoying. The fucking music.

27:07Stick to Football Hosts: So someone's next to me. We're just shouting at each other. Nobody can understand each other. It's bizarre. The three most overrated things in life. Listen to this. Parties. Smiling. What are you talking? And fireworks. The point is... Bro, I'm not having smiling and fireworks. No, smiling. I'm telling you. Right. Smiling and fireworks. I'm never again going to a party. It's bizarre. You know something? So I know we can hear each other, but you should have a room where people can go on. Oh, if you want to have a chat over it. Yeah, a party. You go to a party, but there's a room at the side for you.

27:43Stick to Football Hosts: There's a smoking room and a talking room. I thought it was quite nice. How loud was it? It was quite loud. And then I realised, at the end of the night, I was like, I can't hear anything. I was stood next to the biggest fucking speaker ever. But everyone's chatting. We're bringing it like that. They're shouting. Shouting. No, but I've just said this before. This is fucking crazy. I'm trying to get parked up. Gary's Instagram so someone's done a selfie with Gary and Roy look at Roy his cat dismisses that I know

28:21Stick to Football Hosts: but who gets photographed for that party remember that guy came up the other night oh this guy now the guy you were on the book photographed for the party I don't know who he is fucking obviously but it's come in the middle there's music There's lights. I have a picture. Like, fucking panting. Not like a wedding. And you could see him. I spotted my mile away. I could see him cross the dance floor. You're like, he's getting a photograph. He was going to get a photograph. Starts manoeuvring. Then he gets a bit nearer. Then he gets nearer. Then he's next to you. And you're like, what is it? Roy, did you ever say sorry to anyone at any point during your career?

29:01Stick to Football Hosts: His wife.

29:06Stick to Football Hosts: I don't think I've ever done anything wrong.

29:11Stick to Football Hosts: I didn't. In the dressing room or training room. Maybe when I was sent off, I must have said sorry, lads. You should say sorry to me, Roy, for saying to me that I've got a trophy cabinet full of loser's medals. That's the truth. At the time. Hey, at the time. At the time. I must have said sorry in the dressing room after if I'd been sent off. I definitely would have apologised. And I have no problem, joke aside, if I'd done something wrong, apologising. absolutely no problem. Just in terms of as a coach did you ever end up in a situation with a player like Samson where you banished them? Yeah a few.

29:42Stick to Football Hosts: No not banished them but I fell out with lads when I was obviously when I was with obviously manager Sunderland Ipswich when I was working with Martin with Ireland and I look back and I analyse it and I was convinced and I still am that I was right. No I was the lads I would fall out were complete like idiots who never done nothing with their careers or their lives afterwards so that gives me a bit of comfort. Nobody's ever really proved me wrong on that side of it. But I think I have put players in. But honestly, you'd have discussions and arguments, but usually the players... Listen, players can be wrong as well, obviously.

30:14Stick to Football Hosts: Sometimes you try and do your bit with a charity. You're trying to get the bids up a little bit. Listen, I've done that once or twice. It's embarrassing sometimes. I've done a charity at Lancashire Cricket. I think it was Bobby Moore's funding. Clive Tilsey got involved. There was a quiz. And there was a programme. A 1966 World Cup programme signed by all the players. and I'm sitting there I don't want to get involved in the bid and they couldn't get the fee up to like£800,£1 ,000 they got Bobby Moore's wife and they said we've actually got it insured for£4 ,000 we can't sell it for anything lower than that so I'm sitting there and I'm really embarrassed and I was like so I went I'll go£4 ,000 to get it wrote and the guy went sold to Mr.

30:50Keefe

30:51Stick to Football Hosts: I was only just trying to get it going programme for a programme honestly Sunderland so after Craig Gordon had a poor performance Roy lined up eight to nine players to try and beat him from 25, 30 yards out. I heard this story. If they scored, he'd give them 1K. If they missed, they gave him 100 pounds. He made 800 pounds from the session. Yeah, but I... What happened? Do you know what? I made 800 or 900 pounds, but I probably lost the dressing room. Yeah. No, I did. Do you know what? Again, management. How did it come about? What happened? Do you know what? We were pre-season. We were playing down in the Argarve somewhere and we were playing a friendly match and Craig's in goal.

31:33Stick to Football Hosts: And there was a free kick, but 40 yards out. And he gets beaten from 40 yards out. And after the end, I went... And he had a wall. I said, what, are you having a wall for? Like, fucking miles away. I went, I tell you, I said, I'm going to go and go tomorrow. And you're trying to have a bit of banter as well. You know what I mean? You're trying to have a bit of fun, but it's pre-season. I said, I'll go and go tomorrow, lads. If any of you want to take a free kick against me, I said, go 20 yards out. I'm going to have no wall. And I said, if any of you score, I'll give you£1 ,000. And if you miss, obviously, you give me£100.

31:57Stick to Football Hosts: so the next day the trend it was like a warm down and I went I got the gloves off I think Raymond the goalkeeper so I went lads if any of you want to try it so I'm thinking one or two might try it eight or nine start walking so I get in the goal and Sunday lines they can strike the ball and I had no wall and they're just in the middle of the goal about 20 yards out so I'm thinking I could be 9 ,000 down here because you're thinking one or two will definitely score you know just if they hit the target and hit it properly I wouldn't be able to get near it but the goalkeepers the kind of banter I was trying to have I remember the two or three goalkeepers who were together and obviously they were looking at me I think they thought I was disrespecting them but then eight or nine turned up you know what you was I agree it's so hard if I was practising free kicks if I've got a wall in place it's so much easier it gives you a line that's my point if there's no wall it's so much harder yeah that was my point listen I know what you're saying a little bit but sometimes It's pre-season, remember?

32:58Stick to Football Hosts: You're trying to have a little bit of banter with people. And you knew the players as well, didn't you? They knew the players. And it was more the goalkeepers were annoyed. The players who came down were like, this is a great laugh. We're getting£1 ,000 each tonight. And eight or nine came up and no one scored. Did you make some good saves? Yeah, I made some decent saves. Well, it was a£1 ,000 for each shot. He broke his wrist. You bet your fucking life I was diving around. I was like Peter Shilton. So I was diving around honestly. and I had a little bit of a laugh, but I think, again, I lost it.

33:29Stick to Football Hosts: And they paid you, right? Well, strangely enough, they were very slow in paying me and this was where I kind of backfired a little bit. So the next day, we had another friend. Yeah, as you do, you play two or three games. Again, it was down the Yardgare and the next game we were playing and I was thinking, no one's fucking paid me yet. Yeah. And it was halftime and I think the game wasn't the way I was hoping it was going. So I'm having to go to the players. I went, listen, lads, you need to. And I went, and I better get my fucking money tonight. That's right. I did. When you've got to pay me that money tonight, I'm telling them.

33:59Stick to Football Hosts: Here, now, you had to come up after the game and give me a fuck of all time. I swear. Because I would have had to pay them.

34:07Stick to Football Hosts: That was nice, eh? Really lovely. It was nice to collect things. You were just... Oh, my God. Jill, you were so funny. I never had Jill. I couldn't feel it. I think it turned me straight and turned you straight. I turned me straight. Yous were like this to her. Jill was like, hey, do you know that?

34:25Jesus, be professional. I know, but he's old. He's not only gorgeous, he's impressive. He's impressive. The Premier League needs more of him. 8 ,000 calories a day. That's a lot. I remember speaking to James Askell as a rugby player. But you're amazing. He said that.

34:39Stick to Football Hosts: He needed 4 ,000. He needed 8 ,000. He's six foot 20, right? Of course he's got... But you're all gone. What? 8 ,000? Yeah, because he's got to be 8 ,000. So we're going to have to... We haven't heard that before. We've never heard that before. I've never heard that before. What if he said 200 calories? I would have said, well, that doesn't seem like much. Exactly. It's going to be fucking 8 ,000, isn't it? He's 6 '9", he trains nine times a day, it's going to be a lot. And when he said it, you and Jim were like, What is it doing? That's just him. That's impressive. What did you have for your breakfast?

35:08Stick to Football Hosts: Rice Krispies. Woo! Jesus! Have you got a kid? Have you got a little boy? Woo! What is he? He's jealous. Of course he's jealous. He's jealous. He's loved him. 20 sacks a season. That's not enough. I'm telling you. The fridge used to do better than that. Listen to him, you're talking about... He's gone now. He's gone. I hope he's gone.
