Keane said:
“I’ve had a great summer. No tournaments, bit of a break. I went on a cruise and really enjoyed that. I did (get annoyed on) the first night.”
He didn’t hesitate to step in when things escalated. The men were reportedly “manhandling” the DJ and being aggressive. Keane recalled:
“They were just being rude to other people, rude to the woman playing the music and getting aggro with her, and I stepped in.”
His warning to the group was direct:

His podcast co-hosts, including Gary Neville, found the story hilarious. Neville teased Keane about “putting a marker down,” referencing his tough reputation.
