If he goes to City, I hope we screw them for as much as we can.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) is joined by CEO Duncan Drasdo and Financial Director Andy Green from the Manchester United Supporters Trust for a special episode on all things behind the scenes at Old Trafford including a brief history of MUST and their aims today, views on INEOS and Sir Jim Ratcliffe so far, and the Old Trafford regeneration.
if true, he would have been the worst case of betrayal in United's history. Especially since he had stood for so much, symbol, icon, future captain, etc.
Heinze's and Tevez's actions would pale in comparison

As one of Rio's Twitfam, i'm gutted tweeps
You're bang on the money there. One last farewell to the bald cnut, if he thinks Everton fans give it out good... he ain't seen nothing yet
Funny old game this football lark, eh?
If he does go to City in January, could they win the league?
I'd keep him till his contract ends and let him go on a free, having played no football for over a year.
Not good business sense I know.

Watch the MUTV interview. SAF basically said that he had disrespected the club: "Which, I don't know if he's done that (respected the club)" -- It's enough for most fans.
Unfortunately UEFA rules dont allow us to do that, but yeah that would be enjoyable to watch.
How do you conclude that then? Serious question.
I'm not trying to sit on any side of the fence here (because i don't yet know enough to make a decision) i'm just playing devil's advocate. I'd back SAF over any player and completely agree that no individual is bigger than the club....but are you really so naive as to think that all that has been said between the boss and the player on the matter in all that time is that he wants to leave and absolutely nothing else? I seriously doubt it myself. There is definitely stuff that the gaffer isn't saying. It's one of his biggest mantras. What happens inside the club stays inside the club. Why would this change?
Again, until we have a bit more information to go on than just that Rooney wants out then to say that he thinks he is bigger than the club is ridiculous.
Ditto. I wouldn't want him back even if he changes his mind. I hope we sell him sooner than later and that I will never again have to see him wearing our shirt. Disgraceful cnut.
Surely it's about respect.
If he wants to go, he should approach the manager, discuss it with him, and tell him his reasons.
Not just say he wants to go with no explanation, which Fergie claims. If we hear nothing to the contrary from Wayne in the next few days, we can probably take that as read.
I'm fully aware that I'm in denial, but can I just say this is one big fat joke that those two came up with in between training sessions? 
Pretty pretty please with a bow?
Pretty pretty please with a bow?As i said, i sincerely doubt that the only dialogue on the matter during all this time has been Rooney saying he wants to go. Do you?
He can play for the reserves, maybe he'll learn some dignity, modesty and true love for football from them.
Do UEFA dictate that a player must play ahead of other players if he's not in form?
I suppose you can't expect someone to be loyal to a club when they can't even be loyal to their wife and child. He is off his head.
Let him speak first and give his side before you get that angry.
Its something about a player having to play at least 10% of a clubs calendar year fixtures otherwise hes free to leave under some certain ruling, not sure exactly how it works it was being discussed on twitter earlier when what you suggested was mentioned.
KaiWayne Daddy is asking me which club I think would suit him best. I said a big fecking 3-wood, wrapped right round your stupid fat head
He always makes you laugh
He always makes you laugh
I was saying Booooooooo-uuur...n in hell you fat scouse cnut.
Agreed. Verbal or not. Might not stick in a court of law, but could really damage City's reputation.
True, we've all certainly learnt in the past few weeks loyalty is not a word you can use to describe Wayne Rooney, scum quite possibly is however.
what if he and his camp maintain silence and don't say anything?
what about your great white knight then?
We don't owe Wayne anything. Especially not after everything that has transpired.
We've ripped Terry and Gerrard for their respective characters apart. Wayne Rooney is as bad as them, scum is the right word for him.
Like they care, they sold their soul years ago, they couldn't care less about the clubs reputation or about paying any compensation or charges for illegally approaching a player, their a soulless pit of arab money now.
Good point.
He's had two months to speak by all accounts.
I did defend Tevez when he showed a lack of Loyalty, but for me he had reason and justification. With Rooney I don't even understand his motives or reason, his betrayal is far far worse in my opinion!
Jeepers mate good to hear from you where have you been?
feck off Kia
I kinda agree with this, and I think Brocky In Black is speaking some sense as well.
I understand everyone else's anger, I'm personally more saddened by all of this. feckin' hell it's our Rooney. Make no mistake though, if he actually joins City I'll despise him as much as anyone.
Agreed. Rooney experienced only love, support and iconic dedication from the fans, the club and the manager.
I'm not really defending him, I just think I'll wait and see what he says and which club he moves to before I form judgments. Even if he doesn't explain himself personally, I think the next club he decides to sign for will tell us a lot about him.
I think it's a tremendously sad day for United but I also think Rooney's played for United for 6 years already, has got married too early as well, and at 24 he may not have long at the top left because of his physique. He could be leaving for legitimate reasons... Or he could even decide to stay yet.
haha...just took a step back for a while. Just read posts and didn't comment...waited til the hate died down.
Glad all these threads have been merged. We should make the most of a bad situation and see if we can eclipse the Ronaldo thread between now and January.
I wouldn't waste the energy trying to make people realise. They've already got the gallows out and are hot for a hanging despite knowing feck all.
Just like with Beckham and Ronaldo.
When more of the story comes out, IF it shows Rooney in a more positive light, it's likely they'll all do another U-turn and try to deny that they ever thought such things.
Football fans, bloody hell.
Apologies if this point has already been brought up (I havent read through all 50+ pages on here and have been umm... away for a couple of days) but if we knew mid-August that Rooney deffo wanted out, why didn't we sell him and get someone in while we had the chance?
Now it looks like we have a sulky arsed player with us until January when we could have had someone who actually wants to play for us.
The January window is all well and good but it is likely that whoever we get won't be eligible for CL football and we will probably get less for Rooney than we would have done in the Summer.

Wouldn't be hard to do, at most we play about 60 games a season, one minute cameos in the league cup, fa cup and cl dead rubbers would probably equal 10%.
Have him train with the kids and keep ordering pizzas to his house.
He's right though. Right or wrong, we could come up with a reason for Tevez wanting to leave - especially as he had said he wanted to stay, even though he chucked his dummy out of the pram because we didn't ask him quick enough.
What justification has Rooney got? Tevez might have had a small case. (Or big to some people). Rooney hasn't even got a small washbag.
