Jill Scott has revealed the hilarious two-word phrase fans have been shouting at her after a viral moment with Roy Keane on The Overlap.
Last month, popular pundit Keane made potentially the most outrageous joke of his career in an episode of the Stick to Football with fellow guest Scott.
The ex-United midfielder made an x-rated joke while Scott was discussing a recent charity match that she had played alongside former English international Marlon Harewood.
And now, Scott has spoken out about the one thing that fans keep saying to her after the clip of Keane's joke went viral online.

Speaking in the latest episode of Stick to Football, brought to you by Sky Bet, the former Lioness revealed: “I left the house the next morning [after Roy Keane’s Marlon Harewood joke] and people were shouting at me on the street, “How’s Marlon?” and I thought, “Who the hell is Marlon?”
"The clip went viral, but I felt bad because it wasn’t even that big a smash – not like that – it wasn’t a big tackle.
"His wife even posted about it, and he reposted it himself, so I think he was okay with it. He was trending on X.”
Reacting to Scott, Keane adamantly stated that his comment had been made innocently, and that he just wanted to hear more about the football match.
He added: "I honestly meant, 'what was the score in the match, how did you play?' Honest!"
But Scott was having none of it, as she replied: "Yeah and then I said the score was 6-7 and you were like 69!
"It was all for charity though, the football, so it's fine."
The exchange left the panel, which also include Gary Neville, Jamie Carragher and Ian Wright, in stitches as they each considered their favourite moments from The Overlap over the past two years.
