Manchester United: Police probe - Roy Keane

Roy Keane flew out of the UK on Tuesday refusing to answer questions over an alleged assault.

The Manchester United captain flew to France with his Old Trafford team-mates as he faced a police probe into the allegations made by a 16-year-old boy.

Police in Manchester are investigating an incident close to Keane's £1.4million home in the wealthy suburb of Hale.

Keane, 33, and the teenager reportedly had a row before clashing as the player was walking his Labrador dog on Hale Golf Course on September 4.

On Tuesday, the midfielder flew out with Sir Alex Ferguson and the rest of the team for a Champions League game in France.

Haha, come one - anyone in Brittain knows, F*ck with Keane and he'll eat you for breakfast. I cant imagine why a 16 year old would intimidate him,
did he really expect to get away with it?? It's KEANE!!

Lol

still. it not very good a football retalating to a 16 year old.

He's F#@king scum, I've always known it. This just goes to prove he plays for the right club in manure.

He has done a few retard things like this in the past...

Picking on a 16 yr old...big man!

Isn't it? Ooohh...you're so hard Mr Keane, you can beat up kids.
Plus, all he seems to do these days (apart from not play football as good anymore) is bitch and moan about the young players at Manure. Do you think he's beating them up as well?

Greater Manchester Police have revealed that Manchester United midfielder Roy Keane has been charged with assault and criminal damage.
