Brammie Steve Posted February 11, 2022 Share Posted February 11, 2022 I love Wayne. Our best and most loyal manager since Brian Clough. in fact I don’t think Cloughie would have stuck by the club the way Wayne has this season!

SamUltraRam Posted February 11, 2022 Share Posted February 11, 2022 The documentary featured one of Wayne Rooney's first appearances for England - a Euro qualifier against Turkey in 2003 played at Sunderland - he was 17 !! And let me tell you, that game was very naughty, on & off the pitch I also remember being in a packed Sunderland pub before the game and all the songs were 10 German bombers & No Surrender etc except one non England related song - " We Hate Derby & We Hate Derby" - sang by most of the pub. It made me chuckle & slightly proud ? Ken Tram 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LERam Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 Watched it tonight, very good. From what's been said about his drinking, I thought more might be in about that. Got to hand it to Coleen though, to be able to sort if talk about Wayne and some of his poorer choices... I couldn't do that to be fair if that was my other half.

I think Wayne Rooney has been a rock for this club for the past six months or so. But most loyal is probably stretching it a bit. Let’s not forget it’s still his first job, there is no pressure on him whatsoever, he can’t be sacked and he’s one of the highest paid managers the Championship has ever seen. Sounds like a dream first job at this level to learn from. Turning down the chance to talk to Everton won him over for me. And if he keeps us up it will go down as probably the greatest achievement of any Derby manager of the past 30 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BucksRam Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 Just finished it and really enjoyed it. Evidence is there for all to see why he's stuck it out with us. A winner and a fighter to the core. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DesertRam Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 Well worth watching, makes you realise how he manages to get 100% out of the players, his determination and will to succeed is infectious. We are going for promotion next season, either from league 1 or the Championship! Kathcairns and Dale The Ram 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If a situation arises where he’s cash to spend and pressure to do more than survive, it’ll be equality testing for him.

24Charlie Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 Colleen saved him. From an early age is was a proper scallywag and could quite easily have ended up with a life on the wrong side of the law, but she was there to steady him. Even through his many indiscretions as a footballer she didn’t desert him. Without her forgiveness and guidance he could well have gone the way of Best and Gazza.

Anag Ram Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 Truth is, everything happened for him so early in life. Physically he was a man but emotionally he was still a boy, a teenager full of testosterone who felt invincible. He made mistakes and it’s part of him to make mistakes again. Colleen knows that and has decided she can deal with that because she loves him. She seems to be a remarkable person and the grown-up in the relationship. The programme was like a confessional. Wayne has his demons and isn’t proud of certain areas of his past. He was probably the best person Tom L could meet as manager. I enjoyed the programme and especially the clout he gave Thuram!

Ewe Ram Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 It’s clear to me that he’s taken all of those mistakes he made and turned them into a lesson in how to be a better person. If only more people could do that. Nishfan, Ram-Alf, Crewton and 1 other 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ted McMinn Football Genius Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 (edited) Watched it yesterday, had forgotten just how good Rooney was as a teenager and moreover what a little ? he was too (love it). Kicking everyone around that got in his way in proper “street kid” style. Hooefully young Jack Stretton watches that and takes a leaf from The Wayne Rooney - I don’t give a duck about you and whoever you think you are” school of football. Instil the following attributes in to his game Aggression , Passion and down right Nasty and we have a winner. You need that final piece to be a leader, to achieve things and inspire those around you to do better (just as WR did and does) Edited February 12, 2022 by Ted McMinn Football Genius Anag Ram, Kathcairns and Alph 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alph Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 (edited) Really enjoyed it. Coleen seems great. "Behind every great man" etc Just like Tyson Fury too would self destruct without Paris Fury. Boxing recognises her as royalty but footballers wives are largely considered kinda scummy.

It made me chuckle & slightly proud ? I was there, A lot of hostility towards the Turks for the Murder in Turkey of 2 Leeds fans, Outside was mental, Police just about managed to keep a lid on the main England fans, Plenty of splinter groups looking for revenge, Lads climbing into the Turkish fans buses, I saw a Turk get his head stamped on(not nice)Northern Irish lads came over who you really wouldn't want to take on unless drunk. The worst scenes I was involved in was the charity shield in 75 at Wembley, This almost matched it. We were drinking outside a pub called The Fort, A mass of Sunderland fans passed then started running, We were a little confused, Until we heard shouting...the Metro train has just pulled in with Newcastle fans, Another battle where the Police and their dogs had a field day. As to the "we hate Derby" chant, It may have something to do with Euro 96, The DFL took over Piccadilly Circus an estimated 250 lads I was told not all DLF as I doubt that there were 100 on a good day, Tribalism aye don't you just love it ?

Booing gets you nowhere. I don't think i've booed any DCFC players, I say "I don't think" as I can't remember, But I have given them some foul and abusive comments, Booing is a release of emotions giving verbal abuse can be dislike of the team or players, And no doubt i have done that for good reasons...imo!
