How the career of a Premier League great started in an Irish seaside village made famous by the Titanic
It is a picture-postcard scene. Every building along the promenade is painted a different colour to the next. The water twinkles in the sunlight and, in the small harbour town where Roy Keane got his big break, a vast liner announces its presence in Deepwater Quay most days. History is everywhere in Cobh, as you might imagine given that this seaport in the south of Ireland will always be known for being the last port of call for RMS Titanic.
Keane, in turn, has always been proud of his roots and, though it has been a complicated relationship at times, the people of Ireland’s second-biggest city are proud of him, too. He was given the Freedom of Cork in 2005, the year he retired from playing international football. He is featured on a mural in the city centre and another tribute has been created on St Patrick’s Bridge.
