I think if Rooney wanted ?200K to stay at United - United would bite his hands off to keep their star asset. After all ?10m a year in wages is a drop in the ocean with what is now at stake at United.


He was ruthless in forcing a move from Everton - and that is how United got him at 18, so what goes round comes around.

Very surprised with the Rooney u-turn - it's difficult not to be cynical as to whether this is the real deal or just a compromise contract that suits Rooney and United until the summer - so Rooney can live in piece and United get top dollar.


Yes it was refreshing for Liverpool to get a little break from it all..

I wonder if the fans will cheer or slaughter him next time he steps on the pitch. Given the fact that they forgave Ronaldo for getting his team mate sent off during the Euros a few years back, I wouldn't be at all surprised if they sang his praises.


After his agent put out some feelers, I'm guessing nobody wanted him and his personal baggage (no, I don't mean Coleen) and he had no option but to scamper back to Fergie with his tail between his legs. Once a blue, I mean red.

i've used a similar tactic before...put some rumours out there that you are looking around or interviewing and then use it to your advantage in a pay-review.


This is his job and he wants as much cash as he can get out of it....if that's the way to do it then fair play. Funnily enough Mourinho called it.

Hodgson is way out of his depth - both on and off the pitch. He makes Rafa's recent milk bottle tirade sound half sensible.


I don't see Liverpool winning many, if any, PL games whilst Roy is at the helm. Hodgson needs to be sacked a.s.a.p. There is no guarentee the next Manager will be a success, there never is, but once failure is identified then it is time to stop the rot and start again.


The only plus point from Hodgson is that, alongside the outgoing Christain Purslow, he did a great deal to persuade Torres and Gerrard to stay at Anfield when it was more likely than not they'd have otherwise departed due to previous regime.

Pah! Far too early to get rid of Roy Hodgson. How can he be out of his depth when he has experience of managing the likes of Inter-Milan? He's inherited a crap squad and has no money to spend until Christmas. Give the man a break. I think he'll get it right eventually.

Wasn't there a similar scenario at Newcastle where the fans got their wish to have Shearer and previously Keegan installed as managers, and looked what happened there.

    • Majority of reported hate crime is based on ethnicity, brown, black and mixed heritage. Religious hate crime is lower and most affects Muslims, Jews to a slightly lowers number and a small percentage of Hindus and Sikhs.   Real or perceived atrocities committed by Muslim extremists and the state of Israel will influence numbers  Anyone who has been to a protest against the war in Gaza will see mainly peaceful and good natured crowds including Jews against war. @CPR Dave stop making a fool of yourself. Corbyn cannot admit to being wrong.  He sprouted nonsense that Russia was not responsible for the Salisbury poisoning, would not be contrite about the accusations of anti-Semitism, and is partly to blame for Brexit. He may be principled and a decent person but is not a Messiah and ran a poor campaign in the 2019 general election, a gift for Johnson. I expect he would have been pants in dealing with COVID, and Johnson set a low bar. I'm with Miss Jean Brody on the Spanish Civil War.  It maybe not!
    • How does your mind work? This is a thread about a bakery that may be opening. Your grasp of history is extremely weak. Mosley’s fascists were opposed and defeated all over the east end, not with petitions either. The principal leadership in driving them back came from the Communist Party but it was a united, cross community movement. The Daily Mail provided constant support for the British Union of Fascists and, along with sections of the Conservative Party, echoed their racist rhetoric. Plus ca change, plus c’est la meme chose. Excuse my French. To characterise pro-Palestinian demonstrations attended by thousands of Jews among the hundreds of thousands of people from across British society as “protesting Jews’ rights to exist” or comparing them to Mosley’s blackshirts is frankly sickening. You should be utterly embarrassed and ashamed of yourself.
    • I really hope so too, but they aren't going to get much passing trade, and parking round there isn't easy. Fingers crossed.
    • What's your answer, then? Should the council raise council tax to employ double or treble or more the number of workers to spend all their time clearing leaves from every street every day? Leaves have been cleared from my street several times since leaf fall began, including as I say very recently. It's impossible to keep every street permanently clear, and the situation is made worse by heavy rain. My partner broke his ankle in several places a year or so back when he slipped on wet leaves. He didn't blame the council.
