Brown, who won eight major trophies alongside Keane, was quick to offer a different perspective. Speaking to SunSport via MGM, Brown admitted that Keane’s personality is abrasive but argued that his former captain’s transparency is actually a virtue. He noted that even former team-mates are not immune to Keane’s sharp tongue, but he maintains that the Irishman's intent is never to be a bully but rather to uphold a certain standard.
