ALL things Rooney PLEASE! [Merged]

Re: Rooney and the legal implications

Unless you've read his contract, you can't possibly know what breaches have been committed and what remedies are available for breach. The few prem players' contracts I have seen were remarkably thin, but they were not for A list players. I imagine Rooney's contract is a bit fuller.

But anyway, damages for breach is completely irrelevant. If they impose disciplinary sanctions under the contract, they will be pretty trivial financially (I believe there is an FA rule limiting the number of weeks' wages a player can be fined by the club) because the lad is worth a bob or two and could afford to go without a few weeks' wages.

If they decide not to play him and/or seek to pee him off further (big damages for breach (if possible) more antagonistic press conferences etc) then he can simply sulk until the summer (probably on full wages) when (we all think) he can buy himself out for £5m and be a free agent. He can't just be sold to the highest bidder in January - he has to agree to go. Their nightmare is if he doesn't co-operate and refuses to leave in January. If they pee him off big time, they could be stuck with him and lose out big time financially.

After all, buyers next summer won't care if he hasn't played a competitive match for 6 months - he has undoubted ability and could regain match fitness.

Personally Im made up that fergusons golfing mate Stretford Rooney's agent , has shown what a charlatan he really is by turning him over the way they both engineered Rooneys departure from Everton .... I really hope City buy him for about £100m because Everton get 25% of the profit over £24m ... = £19m for Moyes to spend .. add that to the £10m we'e getting for the sale of the old training ground ... Thats either one overrated mickey mouse player ( Robinho) for City or a Premier League winning team for Moyes ,

Cripes! 12:40 on a Thursday is waaaaaaaaaaaay too early in the day for crack.

What are you going to do when Moyes leaves for United next season?

Re: All things Rooney! [Merged]

We won't sign him anyway so it doesn't really matter to be honest. Its nice to see the rags riled by the thought of it but in all likelyhood he'll probably get the deal he wants at United or will sign for Real Madrid. I know they have to think about the sister, but at the end of the day Spain is only two hours away on a plane and the club has more prestige than ours.

Or, the more likely scenario, a new holiday home for Kenwright.
 
Re: Can the mods merge every Rooney articles into one?

why don't you just not click on the rooney threads if you don't like em......i personally hate merged threads as there are far too many pages to get through and sometimes different stories all get mixed up in 1 thread just because it's about the same player.

More prestige 'at the moment' if you don't mind. But, yes, I'm not sure why the issue of Colleen's sister has become so prevalent. I've said for six months that he's off to Real [Benzema the other way?] and so I'll stick to that. I just keephoping this drags on and on, so that before you know it their season will be over.
 
Nited have to sell

Not getting into the why and why nots, just that we all know when taggart digs his heels in he's a stubborn old codger, Rooney will never pull on the rag shirt again.
This means yoonited have to sell him, which means his price will be lower, they'll have to take the highest bid, even if it falls well short of their valuation of the player.
They can't exactly fall back on, "we'll let him rot in the stiffs, we don't need the money", because if ever there was a club that was skint, it's them right now.
I personally don't think City need him, but I don't run the team or the club !
