Roy Keane has revealed how Kenny Dalglish lost his cool when he told him he would not be joining Blackburn Rovers.
The Manchester United skipper admits he had shaken hands with Dalglish over a move from Nottingham Forest to Blackburn, then managed by the Scot, in 1993.
Keane went home to Cork after agreeing to join Dalglish only to receive a telephone call from United boss Sir Alex Ferguson.
Keane recalls in his book, serialised in The Times: "The phone rang. It was Alex Ferguson. `Roy, it`s Alex Ferguson here. Have you signed any forms?
`No, but I shook hands on the deal and I`m due to sign the forms tomorrow.
`Why don`t you come to Manchester and have a chat with me before you do anything?'"
Keane met Ferguson and decided to join United, leaving Dalglish furious, according to the player.
"I phoned Dalglish to tell him I'd changed my mind about joining Blackburn. He went crazy. `Nobody does this to me, nobody does this to Kenny Dalglish.'"
