angieram Posted January 20, 2020 Share Posted January 20, 2020 Good to see a few photos of Wayne with fans emerging after last weekend's match. Maybe give the guy a little time to settle in before getting the knives out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve been camping outside of Moor Farm for the past two weeks and not once has Rooney accepted my shouting for a photo with him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uttoxram75 Posted January 20, 2020 Share Posted January 20, 2020 Was Rooney not a nice man when he turned up at Nunsfield Social Club in Alvaston a couple of weeks ago to talk to people at a mens Mental Health meeting? Had a game of pool with a few and chatted with them. Give the bloke a break, he's one of the most famous men on the planet, he's giving his all for our football club. The long term benefit for our academy lads to play alongside him and be coached by him should pay dividends, so if he can't sign every single autograph he's asked for then its a tiny price to pay for having him here. Nothing bad can come from having Wayne Rooney play for Derby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would suggest that it would also be reasonable to expect however you may need some time outside the ground on your debut to sign some stuff, probably mostly kids with shirts. To say nothing to people waiting seems quite rude. Met Gordon Banks in Spain a few years ago, he was lovely and had 5 minutes to sign a few bits of paper and chat to people . It isn't too difficult. I am sure it isn't, but then you don't have to do it every time you go out of your front door. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep I’m always stunned by large numbers of people who think it’s their right to approach and expect autographs ,selfies and time for a chat from people just because they play for the football team they support ,were in a film they enjoyed or made a record they liked enough to buy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ram1964 Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 Never overrated the guy ,sure a big influence at United and a great player,however always thought of him as a mercenary especially when he tried holding Fergie and United to ransom for more money. Dispite his 50 goals for England most scored against inferior opposition I don't think he ever proved himself world class on the international stage especially world cup games, outsmarted by Ronaldo and getting sent off,not scoring in. One of the world cup finals,rarely scoring against quality international teams. Then consider the getting pished,cheating on his wife,drink driving ect,ect, just never completely sold on the guy. However since his move to Derby , I have been impressed with his attitude, performances, desire on the pitch and the interviews participated in. May be he has matured ,may be I have previously been overly harsh on my opinions. However so far his affair with Derby is all positive at the moment.Wish him well at Derby and hope he exceeds expectations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What about him also being man utds record goalsorer too?, was most of them goals against inferior opposition too?. You can only play whats in front of you, Think you underestimate the magnitude of what he's acheived as a footballer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stated that he was a big influence at United and a great player????only giving my opinion not asking for you to agree with it. Don't think you can argue with his world cup records ,off pitch antics,or indeed the vast majority of his international goals being against mediocre international teams.

That's ok, because i don't, Every striker to play for England for the past 20-30 years have had numerous games against "inferior" opposition and scored goals against them. An awful lot of Linekers goals were scored against poor teams, also shearer. Singling Rooney out is unfair, he's Englands top goalscorer, give the man some respect.

KBB Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 Had to take my recycling out last night. Where was England's top scorer then eh? He better pop round to jet wash my patio for me on Saturday considering we don't have a game that day. Not a nice man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
