underlined sentence sounds like he wonīt stay with us after the loan spell ends no matter whatROBBIE Keane picked up the Clydesdale Bank Premier League Player of the Month award for March today, but admitted the prize was bittersweet following the team’s Active Nation’s Scottish Cup exit at the weekend.
The Irishman was as devastated as anyone connected with the club at Saturday’s semi-final defeat to Ross County but he knows that he and his team-mates have to try and keep their focus for the remaining six league fixtures.
Keane scored five goals in the SPL last month, making him the league’s top scorer for March, but he can’t enjoy the personal glory.
Instead, he knows the final games of the season are crucial for the club for regaining pride and maintaining their position in the league.
“It’s difficult to be smiling when you’re getting an award like that after the defeat on Saturday,” he said. “Player accolades are obviously good but if the team’s not doing well it means nothing.
“There’s a sombre mood today, everyone’s a bit down but I’ve been telling the lads it’s important to pick ourselves back up because we’ve got another game tomorrow.
“The important thing about football is there is always another game where we can try and put things right.
“We let Neil Lennon down, we let the club down and we let ourselves down, and as players we have to take responsibility as that, it’s as simple as that.
“Ross County deserved to win the game, there’s no question about that. They seemed to want it a lot more than we did and played a lot better football. They totally deserved to win.”
And Keane is determined to help the team get back to winning ways, starting with a victory over Motherwell at Celtic Park on Tuesday night.
“Obviously I wanted to come up here and win something but it wasn’t to be,” he said. “I’m still going to enjoy the remaining time I have here though.
“I never regret anything I do. You do everything for a reason. At the end of the day I’m playing for a wonderful football club which I’ve always wanted to do since I was a little kid.
“Great if I’d won something, but it’s not the case, and I’ll continue to give 100 per cent. I’ve done that throughout my career at any club I’ve played for and I’ll certainly continue to do that for Celtic.”
Letīs pump Motherwell tomorrow
why would he want to stay with us mate - who would you rather play with - a league of world class players or a team of no-hopers and imposters?
Fair play to him though for speaking out about it - more than our "captain" has done or any of our other "high profile" players i.e mcgreedy.

Sad but i dont even give a fuck if we hump motherwell, Im just interested in the attendance at paradise tomorrow
You saying that you would rather not have Keane in a Celtic team?
If so yer even more of a fuckwit than i already think ye are. Keane is a world class player - the only one we actually have at the club - and whether he is a die hard supporter of Celtic or not, i for one would love to see him stay at the club. Unfortunately though i don't think it will happen.
Cheers Cash67
i would like to think so! we have just been fucking embarresed so there is no way a player should get excited over a personal award tbh!
god will have the final say,when your day of judgment comes!

They come from bonnie Scotland,
But they bow to Englands crown,
They really are a mixed up bunch,
They let their country down,
They're racists,thugs and bigots,
And we all know their name,
They're fans of Glasgow Rangers
And they're known as Scotlands Shame.

How can any Celtic fan say they don't want to sign Keane? He's been far and away the best player on the team since he's been here. I think we'd be sitting in third right now without him.

"Celtic is important to me in as much as it's one of the only constants in my life over the years. I have changed and become various things but it is the one constant. Religion, friendships have come and gone, likes and dislikes have come and gone, but Celtic has remained." - Billy Connolly
keane is world class! and if the chance is there to sign him on a perm deal? you take it.after all a full re-vamp of this team is needed and adding class like him would be a great start in my opinion!
