Saipan, the largest island in the Northern Mariana Islands, has never been a stranger to conflict.

It was the scene of a major battle between US and Japanese forces in 1944, an episode which shaped the island in the decades following. On these shores, however, the mere mention of "Saipan" rehashes a different battle entirely, one which still causes ructions some 21 years after the fact.

The events of May 2002 still rumble on, from public house debates to the corridors of power. When mentioning its major stakeholders, Roy Maurice Keane of Mayfield, Co. Cork and Michael 'Mick' Joseph McCarthy of Barnsley, South Yorkshire, the location of their dispute is never too far from utterance.

Alas, we're not here solely to open old wounds, but we do have something cool to show you all.
