Keane takes swipe at "arrogant" Newcastle fans

Former Sunderland boss Roy Keane has taken aim at Newcastle United fans in his new book.

The Manchester United legend launched his new book, 'The Second Half', last week.

"I always had a bit of hassle against Newcastle.

"I'd been sent off twice up there. I'd had my battles with Shearer and Rob Lee.

"I always thought they were an arrogant bunch, for a club that had won **** all. We always got decent results at St James's Park; it wasn't a bad place to play.

"But as for the Toon Army, the Geordies and the hostile reception - I never fell for all that crap."
