Chris Kamara shares the hysterical story of Roy Keane and how he brutally trolled the Man Utd legend in a LIFT

CHRIS KAMARA has shared a brilliant tale of the time he brutally trolled Roy Keane.

The former Sky Sports reporter took the opportunity to poke fun at the Manchester United legend at a chance meeting in a London hotel.

The incident happened many years ago when pundit Keane was in charge of Sunderland.

He’s been busy battling against relegation in the Premier League and provided Kamara with the perfect material to poke fun at the Irishman.

Recalling the story on The Peter Crouch PoddKamara said: “He was the manager of Sunderland, I was at the Marriott hotel in Kensington.

“We used to stay there and do Sky. So I take the elevator on the fourth floor down to the ground floor. He stops on the third floor, Roy Keane comes in.

“Sunderland was struggling at the time so you know how it is with the elevator, the lady goes ‘downstairs’ and I said ‘I think she’s talking to you Roy’.

“And to be fair he looked up and he wasn’t staring at me, I could see the glimmer of a grin.”

Keane is notoriously hard to amuse, with former Prem umpire Mark Clattenburg calling him one of the worst players to officiate over.

Earlier this month, however, he almost burst out laughing after Graeme Souness predicted Liverpool will beat Manchester United.

Keane and Gary Neville both found Souness’s confidence amusing, although of course the Scot had the last laugh as the Reds beat their rivals 7-0.

Former Celtics star Scott Brown recently revealed that Keane has nothing to do with the hardman persona he portrayed on the field.

He said of the former Manchester United midfielder: “Look at Jamie Redknapp – the nicest man in football.

“And then you look at Roy Keane – probably a terrible man if he’s acted.

“I’ve never played him, but I can imagine he was terrible.

“Then you go and meet both of them and Jamie is a lovely man and so is Roy so there is no right or wrong way.”
