The former Manchester United skipper was sensationally sent home last night following complaints about the facilities he and his fellow ITV pundits have been forced to work with.
Keane has already given an interview where he had expressed dismay with having to pretend to be friends with Adrian Chiles but he was willing to put up with. It is thought that the new directive that he would need to laugh at his jokes rather than give his trademark sarcastic smirk had complicated matters further.
The Irish legend had asked for state of the art technology to prove that he was a better pundit than his old United team mate Gary Neville but after being presented with a Subbuteo table, Keane snapped.
He began ranting that the thesaurus he order should have be there weeks before he arrived to stop him reusing the same nouns repeatedly. 'Do ye think Alan Hansen doesn't have one? He probably has it on his iPhone. He can list 25 words in a row that mean the same thing. I only know he's a 'top player.'
'They were doing analysis for Spain Vs Italy from a cafe. That's Channel 5 stuff and at least Pat Nevin has his wee truck. In fact Stan Collymore wouldn't be got dead here. That's right, a man who gets off rubbing his cock against a car window while two ugly people have sex, would not be caught dead doing this.'
Keane then stormed out of the studio saying he'll never share a camper van with Andy Townsend again before hitting Patrick Veria with a two footed tackle. Although the latter was meant as a term of endearment.

Thug on the pitch and appears to be continuing the trend now he's off it. Never a bad day when any team he's involved with loses, or suffers some other disaster.
Nothing personal of course.
