EXCL: Paul Keogh, 65, spent £500,000 and worked doggedly hard to launch Boyzone back in the mid-90s - but now thinks they have been ungrateful to the team that made them famous.
As Stephen Gately lay in an open coffin on the night before his funeral following his tragic and untimely death in 2009, he was surrounded by his Boyzone bandmates.
The Irish manager formed Boyzone and did all he could to keep Ronan Keating, Keith Duffy, Stephen Gately, Mikey Graham and Shane Lynch in the public eye.
With six number one UK singles, five number one albums and more than 25 million records sold across the globe, Boyzone were second only to Take That in the mid-90s.
