It’s Wayne’s World For Another 5 Years
Well, At Least for Manchester United It Is
–
You never know what it takes for a footballer to start rumours that he want’s to leave a club, but obviously for Wayne Rooney there was a financial goal he needed to score.
Just as the boy is clearing out his locker, Sir Alex spills the news that a deal has been done where by Rooney will secure another 5 year contract with the club, for around £250,000 per week.
I ask you, why the hell would anyone want to pay a football player £13 million per year when they have been struggling for performance ever since the end of last season?
Well, there are some great speculative theories bounding around the press, which I just have to share with you.
- Firstly, there is the situation with his bestranged wife and the amount of money she could achieve from his crock of gold.
- Secondly, he knows something about his boss which they don;t want leaked to the press?
- Thirdly, and probably the more obvious of the the three – is that ‘No One’ really fealt that the club had any back bone with the £700 million debt hanging round their shoulders, so Ferguson & Rooney plotted up the plan to see if they could get a vote of confidence from the owners?
This really does bring a big reality issue up again, where by the problem we have in this country with ‘Great’ sports people is that we don’t want to see the good ones leave the country and fly off abroad like David Beckham did.
I guess the only positive side is that the tax man will get 40%!
