Roy Keane surely has big cojones...

Ireland attracted the sympathy of millions on Wednesday night when an impressive performance in Paris went unrewarded, with Thierry Henry attracting strong criticism when handling the ball and teeing up William Gallas for the goal that made it 2-1 on aggregate.

But while Keane does feel for Giovanni Trapattoni, his players and the nation that was so infuriated by Henry's actions, his sympathies do not extend to the FAI, which on Friday learned that FIFA had rejected its request for a play-off.

Keane famously clashed with the FAI when he left Ireland's camp at the 2002 World Cup and the Ipswich manager reserved particular ire for Delaney in a strong response to the controversy on Friday.

"I think the supporters deserve better, the manager (Giovanni Trapattoni) deserves better and probably most of the players deserve better, but I'm not sure the FAI deserve better," Keane said. "What goes around comes around.

"People seem to forget what was going on in that World Cup (in 2002), and that man (FAI chief executive John Delaney) is on about honesty. I was one of the players and he didn't have the courtesy to ring me.

"I'd been involved with Ireland since I was 15 years of age and that man didn't have the decency to make a phone call. He could have phoned me, of course he could have."

Keane also claimed that Ireland had been the beneficiaries of fortunate decisions earlier in the campaign, as well as pointing the finger at Shay Given and the Ireland defence for failing to deal with the free-kick that found its way to Henry.

"Ireland had their chances in the two games (against France), and they never took them," Keane added. "But it's the usual FAI reaction - 'We've been robbed', 'The honesty of the game...'

"There was one match against Georgia where Ireland got a penalty and it was one of the worst decisions I've ever seen which changed the whole course of the game. I don't remember the FAI after the game saying we should give them a replay.

"I'd focus on why they didn't clear it (the free-kick). I'd be more annoyed with my defenders and my goalkeeper than Thierry Henry. How can you let the ball bounce in your six-yard box? How can you let Thierry Henry get goal-side of you? If the ball goes into the six-yard box, where the hell is my goalkeeper?"

credit to him for being fair, he knows as a striker you will do anything to score and if you can get away with it then why not. its not his fault ref is not a superhuman to see that scene again video evidence during the game should be used like in tennis give each team 2-3 challenges

[Masoud_A]

Yea man if you can get away with something do it, shoplifters tend to have the same moto as well as other criminals, thats being fair and understanding in today's world.

Punishing Henry isn't going to solve the situation. At least he admits his guilt. Reforming the officiating of games, and looking at the rules and the refs will because situations like this have happened plenty of times in the past and they will not cease in the future until they do.

What's this nonsense about the Irish deserving to be in the World Cup? They deserved to win the game, but that took them to penalties. Nothing more. All this moral high ground is nonsense. It's like saying Liverpool deserved the league last year - beating both Chelsea and United twice and winning 10 out of 11 of the last games. It's about the points on the board

roy keane got sent home in 02 world cup campain and since then holds a grudge

[BacheLot]

he should be banned for the wc 2010!

yup..!! whats done is done..!! and the result would stand..!! cause shittt happens...!!
but he admitted and it was an obvious intentional fraction so there needs to be a fair punishment...!FIFA must ban his asss from the WC..!! That is the only fair solution, i can think of..!!

I have the biggest respect for Roy Keane, ppl think life is like a Disney movie with always a happy ending the good and the honest will win, well guess what life in real world in merciless specialy in proffessionnel sport world its one of the most unmerciful and relentless , its every man for himself, Henry did what he got to do to for his team to survive, its called darwinism.

you are dealing with the wrong scope man. within organized football that is not acceptable. just like within a society its not acceptable to do normal human act of rape or murder.

[raminio05]

your comparing an effing hand ball to rape and murder?
