Roy Keane leaves Stick to Football colleagues in fits of laughter with hilarious comment

Roy Keane left Gary Neville, Paul Scholes and Ian Wright in fits of laughter following a hilarious quip at Jill Scott's expense on the latest episode of Sky Bet's Stick to football.

Scott and Keane often poke fun at each other on the podcast, and when Scott made a poorly phrased comment about being tackled hard in a charity game recently, she set Keane up perfectly.

"I was playing a charity game at the weekend and Marlon Harewood absolutely smashed us," said Scott.

Quick as a flash, Keane replied: "And what was the game like?", a comment which caused Gary Neville, Paul Scholes and Ian Wright to break into fits of laughter.

"Roy, you can't say that!" Wright said in the midst of laughing, but Keane played innocent and said "But what was the game like? What's wrong with ye?"

"Please keep that in," says Scott before Keane replies "What was the score in the game?"

When Scott eventually replies that it was 6-7, Keane cheekily says 6-9, which causes Scott and Paul Scholes to start laughing again.

The clip has gone viral on social media, with many fans on X/Twitter praising Keane for his comedic timing and Scott for her ability to laugh at herself.

"Roy Keane ladies and gents," wrote one user on X, with another saying "Roy Keane has to be hands down the most unintentionally funny pundit on the planet."

"He’s unintentionally so funny," said another fan, with one more saying "Comedy timing of the highest order."

On Scott's reaction to the joke, many fans praised her: "I’ll never get people who don’t like Jill Scott. Gives good banter takes it incredibly well and she’s enjoyable to listen to. Love the overlap tbh," posted one fan.

"It was so unexpected, but brilliant. The timing of it, the response, the way Jill reacted. Hats off. Phenomenal work. Had me laughing out loud unexpectedly," said another fan.

While one more user posted: "Absolutely brilliant Fair play to Jill Scott for being a good sport here too."
