Roy Keane unleashes fiery rant over his noisy neighbours using leaf blowers early in the morning, and declares it should be ILLEGAL to use them before 8am

Former Man United player Roy Keane has launched a passionate rant over his noisy neighbours using leaf blowers early in the morning.

The Red Devils legend is no stranger to sharing his bold opinions, whether that be in football or daily life.

Speaking on The Overlap with Gary Neville, Ian Wright and Jill Scott, Keane shared his fury over the actions of his neighbours in Altrincham, Cheshire, where he lives.

After demanding fireworks to be banned as they scare dogs, the 53-year-old said: Do you know what else should be banned? 

'I took my dog out this morning at 7.15 and where I live and someone is on the blower with the leaves at quarter past seven in the morning. It's a disgrace. I think it should be banned.'

The Irishman went on to say: 'I was gonna go over and say 'people are in bed!'' 'You're not allowed to use them. It's 8 o'clock.'

In August, Keane stated his intention to leave the world of football punditry within the next 10 years.

The Man United legend was involved in an incident with an Arsenal fan at the Emirates Stadium last year.

43-year-old Scott Law was banned from watching football for three years in June after being convicted of headbutting Keane following Arsenal's 3-1 win over United last season.

'I don't think I'll be doing punditry in 10 years' time,' he said on the Stick to Football podcast, brought to you by Sky Bet.

'I love football but the hassle of matches, getting to games and the hassle of fans.

'I was in court a few months ago with somebody headbutting me - do you think I enjoy that side of it? Absolutely not.'

'The games are fine. Getting to the games, parking up, people shouting your name - good stuff, bad stuff - it's a nuisance. Being a pundit in 10 years, not.'

Keane told the court earlier this year in Highbury he 'couldn't believe' he had come under attack, having not spotted anyone coming towards him.

He said: 'There was a bit of confusion, a lot of people, lots of noise, shouting, as you would expect, five to ten minutes to go in the football match.

'Before I knew it, I'm hit. I just felt the contact, and I've fallen back through some doors.

'The only way I can describe it is, without a doubt, in shock. I didn't expect that to happen, not when I was in the workplace.'

When beginning his testimony, Keane was asked to name his profession and paused before telling the court, 'Erm, pundit, allegedly', before adding that he also 'does some podcast stuff'.

Footage was posted on social media of Micah Richards stepping in to calm an apparent confrontation.
