- As a youngster Roy wrote to English clubs for a trial, but didn't write to United. He didn't think he was good enough.
- Has a pet Labrador called Triggs.
- Has captained United to 9 major honors making him Manchester United's most successful skipper.
- His hero was Glen Hoddle.
- Republic of Ireland international footballer.
- Fail to prepare, prepare to fail.
- I think players tend to get anxious if they've not really done things properly - like eating, resting or training. If you're fully prepared you've got nothing to worry about - it's just a game of football.
- Aggression is what I do. I go to war. You don't contest football matches in a reasonable state of mind.
- There has been lots of things said about me over the years. I am happy to comment on people's opinion in football I respect, but Tony Cascarino is a man I certainly do not respect, for a lot of reasons, and if I told you, you would be shocked. So the day I worry about Tony Cascarino will be a very sad day of my life.
- I don't believe skill was, or ever will be, the result of coaches. It is a result of a love affair between the child and the ball.
