The only person who has the power to reduce Rooney's wages is Wayne himself. Very true,the only easy way out is for a prem club to take him off our hands (and get a juicy payment as an extra bonus) Edited December 26, 2021 by kash_a_ram_a_ding_dong jimtastic56 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However the point about a very well paid Rooney not being in charge of a L1 club strapped for cash, does seem likely scenario. The Kirchner deal was probably the only way Wayne could have perhaps stayed next season, but now that one has fizzled out, it seems reasonable to expect an affordable, but experienced lower league manager on L1 wages, to take the reins next season.

Well yes i think he would but he has to be seen as coming across positive, now it's not his U.S buddy getting the reins he will have some excuse or other up his sleeve. jimtastic56 and europia 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is all true, how would it look in the media though if the football club could not be saved due to his pay packet? I think he would have to deal if the new owners went public with that...

If you mean the preferred bidder then, whilst it would be good if Rooney did agree a reduced deal, if he didn’t I somehow doubt the bidder would be so specific to name Rooney as the cause of the bids failure. I think tat would be bad form. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BramcoteRam84 Posted December 27, 2021 Share Posted December 27, 2021 Rooney on £90k is has been reported by likes of Mail Sun etc. A certain ex-director of the club has also supposedly been spouting he’s on £4m per year. It’s my hunch that same director is Barrytheanon’s source on the other thread or it’s come from that direction (the speculation this is all a ruse by the administrators, a deal is miles away and Mel is still involved in the background and don’t be surprised if he returns some day) On Rooney’s wages, don’t believe it’s £90k per week or £4m per year for one second, but it will be likely too high for a championship manager let alone a league 1 manager. If the new owners think he’s the man then they would need to offer him a long term deal (3 years) but a huge pay cut as we need to get our costs under control, then it’s up to him how much he wants the job. jimtastic56, RAM1966 and Ram-Alf 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Van der MoodHoover Posted December 27, 2021 Share Posted December 27, 2021 Don't we have a recent history of paying high for managers/head coaches? Not saying that it's 4m or any particular number but if it's on the high side for champ, it's going to look luxuriant in L1..... ? jimtastic56 and BramcoteRam84 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are people forgetting Red32 increased their sponsorship to give the club half the money to pay Rooney's wages.

Possibly dropped the amount, but I also read they did then pay (some?) up front, to help the club tide things over? Not sure any facts have actually been made public though... obvs! ?♂️ BramcoteRam84 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We paid Clement over the odds in his first job (£40k per week) a pay cut from his Madrid wage but still way too high, likewise Lampard was on £35k per week and we offered him £50k to stay, then basically gave that contract offer to Cocu who based on his pedigree was the most meriting of such a high wage although it didn’t work out. Wouldn’t be surprised if Rooney is on between £40k and £50k per week which is way way too high. Going into league 1 it would need to be at least 1/4 of that probably even less. For context we were paying snake around £20k per week, possibly less and he was a proven championship manager. Nigel Clough I think was the lowest paid manager in the championship when he was in charge. jimtastic56 and Van der MoodHoover 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given our former owners track record of bulleting managers then if we paid them in washers it would still be too much as the club would be paying for their services with them sitting at home in their skiddies practising sweaty goals on FIFA.
