This video of Roy resurfaces regularly and whilst on Talksport I was asked about it again, so let me address it once here on X. The next time I address it will be when it’s written down and it will form a part of a small chapter in an extensive book. To give context to the Off The Ball clip, this was on the back of an emotional interview I did on The Late Late show with Ryan Tubridy when I spoke of some personal issues. I discussed my brother who had recently passed and other family issues which I won’t go into right now but were just as poignant. I am an individual who stands up for what I believe is right, but there are others who struggle when people don't capitulate to them. The issue for those who make things up is ensuring there's no evidence to the contrary, and in this case, there is. Make no mistake, when Roy crossed the line at Ipswich, I put him firmly back in his place and I was fully justified with my response. Many years later when he regurgitated his thoughts whilst we were on International duty with Ireland, history repeated itself. When it comes to measuring a successful life based on awards and medals. I don’t require material possessions to demonstrate what I’ve achieved in life. I feel sorry for those who judge their worth and believe that they are superior to everyone else based on these things. I’ve been able to live a dream and have a career at the very pinnacle of football, doing what 99.99% of the population will never get the chance to do. I have got a beautiful wife and amazing children who are my greatest achievement bar none. As to all the other things that have happened in my career that nobody knows about, I can guarantee no player has trodden the same path. If and when I share my story, I’ll have to revisit places that I don’t particularly want to go back to. Whilst this will shock most, I do believe it would be a valuable source of help to others.
