Keane made his debut for Luton under manager Mike Newell at the age of 16, in the LDV Vans Trophy against Rushden & Diamonds early in the 2003-04 season. Despite playing out of position at right-back, Keane played well and stayed in the side for a further 16 games that season, his league debut coming in a 0-0 draw at Wycombe Wanderers. Newell predominantly played Keane at right-back as cover for Kevin Foley, but he also featured in midfield. He was soon called up to play for the Republic of Ireland Under-19 side. Keane had a solid 2004–05 season, becoming a regular squad member. Appearing at centre-back, full-back and in midfield, he made 19 appearances in all competitions. Luton went on to win League One that season with a massive 98 points, rewarding Keane with a winner's medal. The next season started with Keane as a Championship player, and as an Ireland Under-21 international after making his debut against Cyprus, joining Foley in the side.[5] Used at right-back, left-back, in central defence and on the right-hand side of midfield during the course of the 2005–06 campaign, Keane’s ability to play in numerous positions saw him make 10 league appearances. He netted the Young Player of the Year award that season for his performances. In the 2006–07 season, Keane made 19 league appearances as Luton were relegated to League One. The next season, after Newell's departure, Keane was frozen out of the first team by new manager Kevin Blackwell, who preferred to play his own signing Richard Jackson. However, Keane was eventually brought back into the team to replace the woeful Jackson, and later made the position his own when Luton Town legend Mick Harford replaced Blackwell as manager in January 2008.
Heard him mentioned on here already like.... I've been chatting to my boss at work today who is a huge Rotherham fan. He's big drinking buddies with Rotherhams assistant manager...name i've forgotten? (loves to talk football and knows everything on rotherham) I don't know if anythings already been offically announced but we've had quite afew unsuccessful bids in for Rueben Reid now. 19 goals and been played out of position he reckons.
what team would this be for the one that they seam to be wasting all there time and money on or the one that people pay good money to watch
