Footie hardman Roy Keane sees red when Range Rover gets stuck in car wash at Shell garage


FIERY footie idol Roy Keane lost his rag at a garage as he got his Range Rover stuck in its car wash.

The ex-Manchester United hardman saw red when the machine stopped, trapping the £80,000 motor.

He leapt out and berated Shell staff even though stunned onlookers reckoned it was his own fault for driving in crookedly.

Republic of Ireland assistant manager Keane, 45, was seen flailing his arms and ranting down his phone.

A source said after the machine’s safety cut-off kicked in: “His car was stuck for about ten minutes.

“He got more and more angry. It wasn’t the staff’s fault but they bore the brunt. Keane is renowned for his short fuse but this was ridiculous.”

The machine was eventually restarted and dad-of-five Keane continued with the wash.

He drove off in Altrincham, Cheshire, with his pride and joy undamaged and gleaming.

Shell declined to comment. During his playing career Keane was notorious for bust-ups, including one with Ireland manager Mick McCarthy that got him sent home from the 2002 World Cup.
