Ref, I barely brushed him! The artist who’s painted all of Roy Keane’s red cards

# Immortalising a Legend: Artist Captures Every Keane Red Card in Stunning Tribute

Reds, you’re going to love this one! Irish painter Seánie Harte has created something absolutely brilliant: a complete series documenting all 11 red cards Roy Keane received whilst wearing the sacred red shirt of Manchester United. Talk about capturing the essence of a club legend!

Before Keano became the no-nonsense pundit we all know and love today, he was the heartbeat of our midfield through the glorious 1990s and early 2000s. Yes, he had a fiery temperament that occasionally landed him in hot water, but that’s what made him Roy Keane. That relentless will to win, that refusal to accept second best, that absolute desire to dominate every single blade of grass on the pitch. You don’t win seven Premier League titles without that kind of mentality.

Harte’s Red Card series isn’t just art, it’s a celebration of an era when United had steel running through our spine. Every sending off tells a story of passion, commitment, and that famous Keane intensity. “It’s a bit of fun,” Harte says, but honestly, it’s more than that. It’s a reminder of when we had proper warriors in midfield who would do absolutely anything for the badge.

Imagine having that kind of presence in our current squad alongside the energy of Kobbie Mainoo and the experience of Bruno Fernandes! Under Michael Carrick’s guidance, we’re building something special again after securing Champions League football with that brilliant third-place finish last season. Different era, different style, but the winning mentality must remain the same.

Fair play to Seánie Harte for immortalising one of the greatest midfielders to ever grace Old Trafford. Those 11 red cards? Battle scars from a warrior who gave everything for Manchester United. Absolutely love it.
