Roy Keane has delivered the verdict on all of the red cards he was shown during his time at Manchester United.
The legendary midfielder was no stranger to the colour red, as he was sent off 11 times during during his 12-year stint at Old Trafford.
Seven of those were in the Premier League, where he was one off joint record holders Richard Dunne, Duncan Ferguson and Patrick Vieira.
Speaking on the Overlaps' Stick to Football podcast, he defended his record after clashes with the likes of current England boss Gareth Southgate and Erling Haaland's father Alf-Inge.
His first red card came for a stamp on then Crystal Palace defender Southgate back in 1995, in which Keane said the England boss 'deserved it'.
Keane said: 'Gareth deserved that. Gareth lunged at me. Gareth's nasty, everyone seems to think Gareth's a nice guy. He tried to break my leg!'
He also recalled the one that 'everyone remembers' when he caught Haaland's father with a knee-high foul - which ultimately led to the Norwegian's retirement after an ACL injury.
Speaking on the challenge against the Man City player, Keane pointed the finger of blame at United team-mate Gary Neville.
'You didn't help either running off to the linesman saying it's only a yellow [card],' a smirking Keane explained. 'Gary ran over saying it's only a yellow so when you say that to an official he's going to go 'well that must be a red'
Neville was left in stitches by Keane's theory before replying: 'So I'm at fault for your sending off?'
Keane responded: 'I don't think that tackle was that bad. I was never going to injure him with that kind of a tackle, he does a somersault and it looks kind of worse.
'When you've played the game you know when someone's trying to injure a player. It's just when someone does a somersault it looks worse than what it was.
'It was a silly game, it was a rubbish game. We were all frustrated we'd just been knocked out of Europe a couple of days before it.
'I'd done my cruciate up at Leeds. Obviously, I tried to trip him and he was stood over me when I did my cruciate, it was a bad injury and he was saying some nasty things when I was injured. I thought well obviously we'll meet again.'
Keane, was handed a five-match ban and £150,000 fine for the challenge.
The Irishman also once received a red card for attempting to punch Middlesbrough's Jan Age Fjortoft in a game back in 1997.
Keane swung a punch after the forward grabbed his shirt, and though Fjortoft immediately held onto his face, the ex-Manchester United star denied that he connected with the hook.
He said: 'That was a bit silly, I tried to punch him. I didn't connect.'
On his patchy discipline record, he added: 'I don't regret any of them. Obviously the one everyone remembers is the Haaland one. I got sent off at Newcastle a couple of times with your [Ian Wright's] mate Shearer.
'Sent off at Blackburn, sent off once for Ireland, I was sent off in the Charity Shield against Chelsea. No regrets with them.'
On The Overlap, he also suggested that former referee David Elleray 'looked down on him'.
Elleray had sent Keane off four times in his career, more than any other referee, and the Irishman believed that there was more to it than him simply breaking the rules.
Speaking about one of his red cards from the referee, Keane said: 'I think I was covering for you (Neville). David Elleray looked down on me, he was a school principle at some posh school and I was Irish.'

If Keane spent 12 years at United & 11 red cards that means he needs to come out of retirement so that he can get a 12th red card to fulfill his twelfth years. Don't you guys think so? [ko]
