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.

    • What is the reason for the change in name? Just curious.
    • Why change it?  You’ve got a fantastic historic, memorable name and you want to change it for something innocuous.
    • From the school newsletter:   A New Name for Dog Kennel Hill As you know we have been discussing and consulting with stakeholders about a  name change at DKH for a while. Following engagement with staff, pupils and  families, we gathered all views on a name change for the school and after  careful consideration of the feedback, the Local Committee and the Trust have  agreed with changing the school name to Grove Primary School from  September 2025.  Over the next few months we will begin a gradual process of changing our  name on signage, our website and emails etc. We will keep you updated.  We will be looking at designing a new logo to match the new school name and  will be working closely with a graphic designer to get creative. The school  council will be actively involved in this process. We will share the results with  you as soon as a design has been agreed and confirmed. We will be creating a  new school jumper to replace the old one, once the logo has been finalised. We  will phase this in over time.  We know that this is a welcoming change for some and that there are  parents and children who will be sad about the change. However, as a school  we think it will be a positive change for our school community and we will  work together to ensure that the ethos and culture of DKH will remain!
    • if I think of Corbyn dealing with a global pandemic (a lot of his supporters and some of his family come from the woo end of the spectrum - his brother is a proper anti-vax nut), then the  invasion of Ukraine (Corbyn long record of not exactly condemning Putin even as he killed people on British soil and many other matters, I  really do shudder
