I never noticed this guy before but oh my days he's so bloody sexy! He's gorgeous all the way from the early 90's up till now. Kept seeing him on sky sports over the past few months and now I can't stop day dreaming about him!

Well he certainly seems a bit marmite but he also has his female fans, I didn't realise he'd be so popular, he must be beating them off with a stick!

Nooo not Terry's trouser snake again, my eyes!

You are most definitely not crazy.

He was mega hot in the 90s, playing for Man Utd.

I suggest watching Ted Lasso, OP. The character of Roy Kent is based on Keane, and he definitely has that sexy, brooding anger vibe.

He was never hot. He's a nasty thug. And I'm a United fan.

He’s objectively not bad looking.

He did, however, violently attack and purposefully injure a fellow professional as revenge for a perceived slight, then removed all question as to his intent by boasting about it in his autobiography.

I’m not particularly comfortable with fawning over violent men.

@Butchyrestingface What happened with Glen Hoddle did he try to recruit you to his cult?

This.
Plus I don't see how anyone can find someone who is so negative, aggressive, rude, and critical ALL the time, attractive.
Surely someone needs to be able to be pleasant, polite, considerate of others, and have a sense of humour to be attractive?

AhNowTed · 13/06/2022 21:25

He's a controversial figure in Ireland, and while I don't agree with his actions over Saipan, he is GORGEOUS.

A family man, his wife is no WAG, keeps his children out of the limelight, speaks his mind, and a dry wit.

Sunnytwobridges · 13/06/2022 21:41

I don't think he's hot but he's got a certain mainly look that is attractive. So you're only somewhat crazy lol

Hollyhobbi · 13/06/2022 23:04

Op is it the Cork accent that gets you?

@Stevienickssnickers I could forgive him being a lazy shag, he's fifty after all and his knees are fecked. I'd ride him like a blackpool donkey!

@Hollyhobbi That cork accent is very, very sexy! I've never even been and my mum has a glasgow accent as she grew up here. My granda had a cork accent though.

@Kite22 He does have a sense of humour, he's pretty funny actually. I think he's just changable.

@AhNowTed Yeah I think he's a pretty decent guy at heart and of course he's foxy.

@Sunnytwobridges I don't normally go for the super manly look but for some reason he just does it for me. Must be my hormones!

Yes but the oroblem, @sallysgarden i”d that the pillow talk … would … take …. For…. Ever… with a cork man. Interspersed with much fecking - although I gather you’d rather like that 😂

my family’s from cork and they’re hilarious 😂

AgileLass · 13/06/2022 23:53

He’s not foxy. Foxy in Cork means red-headed. But he is hot, always has been.

CanaryShoulderedThorn · 13/06/2022 23:57

oohyoudevilyou · 13/06/2022 19:30

He's very Irish-looking. Not necessarily a bad thing, but he resembles most of the males in my family...so it's a No from me.

You must be related to me OP! He looks like all my cousins too 😂

@WeLoveYouMissHanigan sounds very good to me!

@AgileLass I didn't know that about the word foxy, interesting! I'll stick with sexy then!

I think he is hot as hell. He might be arrogant but it's not arrogance if you can back it up.

He does a lot of work with guide dogs. He looks even more attractive when you see him interacting with a labrador or golden retriever.

This made me laugh - thank you - I guess OP (&others ) you are jealous of the dogs Grin

@BeaLola Lol, perhaps but I think I'd be looking for a bit more than a belly rub, a scratch behind the ears and being told I'm a good girl from him.

SpiderVersed · 14/06/2022 14:10

I don’t find him hot but I found the grumpy sweary version of him in Ted Lasso very attractive indeed.

@SpiderVersed I'll need to check out this Ted Lasso although isn't the Roy Kent character english ... not sexy irish accent then 😢

Here you go, OP. No Irish accent but still worth a go.
