10. The Time He Got Knocked Out By Brian Clough
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fi2wq-J0zag During a 1991 FA Cup tie against Crystal Palace, the young Roy Keane dropped a bit of a clanger when playing for Nottingham Forest. When a slack back-pass ended up resulting in an equaliser, Keane got the full force of the legendary Brian Cloughs wrath. After the game, which finished as a draw, the Forest boss took Roy to one side and asked him if hed ever been punched really hard. Keane would reply no, so Cloughie proceeded to floor the Irish hard man with a swift dig. Given Roy Keanes tough-as-nails reputation, its likely that the memory of getting decked by a then-55-year-old man is one that Keano would like to forget.
