Roy Keane kept his verdict short after Celtic's 1-0 derby defeat to Rangers at Celtic Park on Sunday. The former Celtic and Manchester United midfielder, shown in the stands by Sky Sports cameras, passed a live recording of the fan channel Celtic AM as he left the stadium.
Host Hamish Carton called out to Keane during the broadcast, asking for his thoughts on the match. Keane shouted back: "Ups and downs of football."
The defeat was Celtic's third in seven days. They lost twice to Rangers either side of a 3-1 Europa League home loss to Ferencvaros, intensifying speculation about manager Martin O'Neill's future.
O'Neill said he would use the international break to consider his position. "I will reflect on the games. I'll obviously speak to the board. And you never know, they may want to speak to me," he said, adding that he planned to take a couple of days away before deciding.
