Did Mackem boss Roy Keane walk out on the club on Friday, as reported in the press? He says recent stories circulating about him being unhappy with life on Wearside are "just nonsense".
Keane was rumoured to have walked out on Sunderland after becoming annoyed at the way he and his team were booed by the Mackem 'unwashed' following their Carling Cup exit midweek.

Keane: "Honestly I have been in football a long, long time and particularly since I have gone to Sunderland there seems to be a story every week about something."Where do the stories come from? I honestly haven't got a clue. It is just crazy.
"The answer is obviously no. I am very happy and obviously even happier when we win football matches.
"But these stories that I am not happy or that I am resigning is just nonsense."
QUOTE OF THE WEEK ... FROM A MACKEM ...
We were in Sir Bobby Robson's local last night (Langley Park Cricket Club) and the Mackem supporters bus arrived back from Blackburn.One lad had a polo shirt with a Mackem club quest alongside a Durham Cricket Club crest, and I couldn't resist asking him "WHY?".
His reply: "Club and county ... they're both from County Durham!"
Oh yeah? "So what about Tyne & Wear?"
He came back with: "That's not a proper county".
SAD MACKEM B******!
