birch-chorley Posted October 19, 2010 Share Posted October 19, 2010 Which nicely rounds off my point. Football is so far detached from 'normal' lives/jobs that they aren't comparable. I disagree with your point about it being a sport and there should be some loyalty, it used to be this way but hasnt been for at least as long as utd have earned more money than anyone else, football is a business and works by exactly the same business rules you get in normal life. Money talks and 99.9% of folk would jump at a 400% pay rise without having to give up anything and without feeling bad. Do you think any of the other utd players would not do the same?

Moderators Zico Posted October 19, 2010 Moderators Share Posted October 19, 2010 His form wasn't particularly poor last season He had a poor World Cup but name and Englishman that didn't Don't get why all of a sudden he's a cunt; for example he supposedly wants to play and says his ankle is fine, yet Fergie won't let him and says it's not....so it's not like he's trying to disaffect his employer liek a Kenwyne Jones or twats like that who go on strike Fuck the DMB's i know we're discussing this else where but I see it like this he told them he wouldn't sign a new contract in August, fair enough, this wasn't made public, he told them of his intentions, no need for it to come out, which it hadn't, till now so I see it that he's out of form due to, in part, his off the pitch stuff fergson drops him - he's not playing well, whether other stuff is affecting him or not, he deals with it by saying his injured, as opposed to his heads fucked they ask rooney why fergie says he was injured, he says "i dunno" course he knows so now it comes out he wants to leave, not that he won't re-sign, he wants to leave - so much so utd come out with a statement, in october when there's no transfer window and he's stuck with them till jan, that he wants to leave not that he won't be signing a new contract, or leaving in 2012, or that they will listen to bids it's that he wants to leave so he's looking for a move, he's fallen out with ferguson, doesn't like being told what to do, for his ?100k a week he's meant too, not go looking for a way out that makes him a cunt, not all of a sudden, but still, more so today don;t get me wrong, it's funny as fuck there's ways of leaving a club - the mcateer way, and the stubbs way one of thems a cunt too, the one who said "watch this space", instead of keeping shut and getting on with it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jolly-olly Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 Who has brought all this out into the open? Are there are any actual quotes from Rooney? I have only heard what Ferguson has said straight from the horses mouth. I have not read or seen any interviews with Rooney. He still wants to play so I don't see why that makes him a cunt.

Breightmet Boy Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 Ferguson has asked Rooney to be dignified and keep his mouth shut, that's charming after the speech about him in the SSN interview, he also knows Rooneys heads elsewhere. I'm chuffed, now Ferguson can feel what it's like to be asset stripped Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah but that's just the point Supposed by whom?? It doesn't suit Rooney as much as it suits Utd to have it leaked now This smacks massively of the DMB PR machine in overdrive and every fucker is falling for it Folk are saying they've never seen Fergie so open, so honest - he's saying what suits him If Utd kept it quiet til January then Rooney suddenly goes, they look ill prepared and having pulled the wool over the fans' eyes considering they knew since August. If they say "he's going" in August, but he's not sold, it doesn't suit anyone as there's more pressure for him to perform on the pitch. Rooney isn't playign at the moment at utd's choice - as he's not currently their no.1 striker and ineffective it's in their interests to leak it. If he was firing on all cylinders, then they don't say anything... And as a peripheral issue they can now they can start planning for replacements and also unsettle other players ahead of January Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pablo Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 Rooney's love of Grannies is well known has he been bumming Fergies Wife? From what I heard from a Rooney family member was that this was ALWAYS Rooney's intention. He was never going to sign a contract, and wanted to go aboard for a few years, and then come back home. It just so happens that he is having family issue's at the same time. Also, he has been preparing for his return to Everton for a while now, he has built bridges with Moyes and the EFC fans, he did a big interview with Everton TV last season, about how he still loves the Club bla bla bla.....! Also, he got alot of stick from United fans, because he didn't put his son Kai in a United shirt....bizare that one, just the arrogance of the United fans, once again.

Guest Frandsen08 Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 my money is on: the glaziers tightening the purse string and not improving enough on his current contract hes not a top earner at manure and wants to be. agent put feelers out, another club, probably city said how about x number of millions a year. he said, damn right. and every single person here would do the same. Saw a list the other day of the top 20 highest paid players of the last year on wages alone, not one united player was in the top 20 and the first united player was rio at 27th. So yeah I'll agree that the board don?t have enough money to put him in that list or at the very least the highest earner at united, so for that he probably said I am out! Which isn't that surprising considering the money that is out there from clubs who will buy him and put him as one of the highest. The thing that I find interesting is a lot of clubs may want to buy him, but I can?t see a lot of them spending more than ?25 mill in January for him considering how they A. can?t play him in the champion?s league or in citehs case the europa league , and B. can get him for around ?5mill in the summer. All in all united are in a bad position and its happy viewing for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed. Rooney's cousin was telling my cousin, that one of the things that upsets him, is the fact that he cant take his Boy to Goodison, and sit in the Street end. Now he has a kid, I think he regrets what he did, or more of the way he left and what he did at Goodison. Its not beyond the relms of possibility, of him coming back home sooner rather than later.

Mounts Kipper Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 I hope and pray that no club pays big money for him, I do not want the financial state of Man united improving by someone like Man City giving them silly money, If i was looking to sign him I would wait until there was less than 12 months on his contract and then steal him.
