Roy Keane says the GAA 'deserve credit' for allowing the Manchester United XI v Ireland/Celtic XI Liam Miller testimonial match to go ahead at Pairc Ui Chaoimh.

"I know people were upset about it and were very emotional about it and people vented their frustrations about it with the GAA but we got there eventually and the GAA deserve credit for that," the Manchester United legend said on Off The Ball AM.

"We just hope now that the people who were upset that they couldn't get tickets will now buy a ticket and turn up and, as I said, celebrate Liam's career."

It appears as though Keane and his fellow organisers will have no difficulty in selling out the 45,000 capacity stadium as ticketing website Tickets.ie crashed this morning due to the high demand for the September 25th fundraiser.
