Martin O'Neill tells a hilarious story about two young fans asking Roy Keane for his autograph on a golf course. Keane's response is not what they expected.
You have to pick your moment when it comes to getting Roy Keane 's autograph or a selfie with the Manchester United legend. And if you get him on a bad day, you can probably expect a terse response from the former Republic of Ireland captain. Martin O'Neill knows Keano well, having worked with the now 53-year-old during their time with the Irish national team. O'Neill recalled one comical Keane moment on the recent episode of The Overlap.
The former Northern Ireland captain shared a hilarious story about two young fans asking Keane for his autograph on a golf course. And it didn't work out well for the teens.

They were about 14 or 15. 'The two young lads were standing near me and they could see Roy down the fairway. They were like 'Hey mister, mister, is that Roy Keane there?'. 'So I replied 'Yeah, yeah, it is' and they said 'Do you think we could get his autograph?'. I said, 'It's not a good time. Not a good time. Watch and see if he hits a decent shot, maybe you could go up towards the green and we will see how we go from there'. 'So the two lads got back on their bicycles and headed towards the green. Roy finally gets up to the green and the two lads shout 'Roy, Roy, can we have your autograph?'. 'And Roy told them to 'f*** off'.' A smiling Keane debated whether he swore, to which O'Neill joked: 'I met the two lads last year. They just got out of a psychiatric unit. They were mentally scarred
