MERGED: Rooney signs new contract!

Even when Keane and Ruud left, I wasn't very afraid for the future of this club. But Now I'm. The financial situation doesn't help it one bit.
 
Just a thought, wouldn't it be ironic, if Rooney leaves and is replaced by 1-2 'big name' signings, as is expected...

I have no doubt whatsoever that Rooney will 100% regret his decision by the end of his career.
 
Ronaldo left, fulfilling his dreams for both himself and the club. Wayne leaves without finishing his duties. I want him serving the army for about a year...that way he'll know when to shut up.
 
It looks like Rooney decided that he wanted to be off in the summer for more dosh than United would ever pay and is now looking for reasons to justify it. Bye Wayne.
 
I wonder how many gold plated gnomes and ornamental lakes full of Moet one person needs and how much caviar one person can snort?
 
He won three league titles, almost four, in a row. Champions League medal sitting at home, with second finals appearance, should of been three. But he wants to leave because we are not signing big names? Why doesn't he just come out and say he wants to play for Real? Ronnie did. And what's this shit with Chelsea sounding interested saying they have room for him. They think we would actually sell the cnut to them?

It's all a bit silly. Waynes just being a greedy little child. We've won everything there is to win in the last four years. One year without a major trophy and this is his reaction. Interesting way to deviate attention from your absolutely ridiculously pathetic form.
 
I think Rooney is admitting that he's not the best player, a player who can change the game...weird.
 
Who's the whore now Wayne? Colleen forgave you, we wont"

we're the banners
 
Shreeves: "Rooneys talk was about the ambition of the club"

SAF: "What is it, 30 odd trophys i've won?"

SAF smiles and walks off

:lol:
 
I hope SAF comes out with a statement just saying "enjoy playing at Moss Lane, Wayne".

Hey, it even rhymes, bonus!
 
Rooney is not a victim of an exceptional season and a desire for success, just the victim of greed, exacerbated by his shocking ability to squander money.

I actually believe that Rooney can't afford to play for Utd and that he needs the mega bucks to keep pace with his lifestyle.

He is just a scumbag with a talent. He sort of reminds me of Mikey Carroll. :)

We need to stop wasting bandwidth discussing his lame and fabricated excuses.

Put simply, the lure of some Middle East oil money has proved too much for his dark side.
 
FAO Fred and others

If David Gill realised that Rooney wouldn't sign without assurances of future investment, why wouldn't he have just lied to him, got him to sign the contract so at least we'd have protected his value? I mean afterall, this man in your opinion is a two faced lying b*stard isn't he?

I get the feeling that Rooney's talking out of his arse to try to cover up the fact that he's a money grabbing whore but anything to beat the Glazers with eh?
 
Can't say I disagree with anything he says . Lack of investment in the squad shows lack of ambition . We seem to be happy picking up freebies and untried bargains most of which are nowhere near United quality . The squad is the poorest I can remember for a long time . Although I agree with what he said I still believe he's away for more money and to get away from the British press and not the reasons he stated .

Thanks for the memories Wayne

But every gold plated gnome will be wearing a Green & Gold scarf! The ornamental lake (full of Dom Pérignon, surely -- Moët is for plebs) will have Green & Gold tiles.
Because he did it all for us, after all.
He opened our eyes, he sacrificed it all in his valiant, frank adult death-struggle against the Glazers! Please, you must understand!

All hail our new anti-Glazer martyr.
