As much as it pains me.

It's a question that shouldn't ever be asked (nor have I ever seen anyone ask it prior to this right here)

Rooney jumped ship the first chance he got aged just 18 when he left the club to sign for Man U, and spent over a decade producing his best for them (which included scoring at Goodison against Everton and sliding across the turf on his knees in celebration).

He is a Man U legend (even though they hate scousers) and their record goalscorer. Everton is a footnote in his career.

I was at that game and the stuff coming out of our fans against him was totally disgusting
Most of it nothing to do with football

Small club mentality this type of thing that I wish we could move away from. Inviting him to the stadium for butchers is just cringe imo. But that’s just me. Up the toffs.

Yes, highly cringe. Plus he's not bright enough to take seriously on anything he says.....
Some happy memories of watching his first few games and it was exciting times, 'Rooneys gona get yer' and generally he actually would.... felt we could build something around him but as is normal the club was a mess financially and needed the cash. I don't blame him for leaving and of course he claims we tried to sell him and so he was pushed to take control. Who knows, but i remember feeling let down when he left and hating Man u even more than I already did.
 
Oh all right then, I withdraw my vote to make him an Everton legend. However I will never forget his debut goal against Arsenal. One reporter said the Everton crowd "levitated".

I was there too, he told my 10 year old lad to F off (he mistakingly thought it was him who called him a scab)
Did you expect we would give him a hero's welcome and clap every time he touched the ball?
 

It’s also mad, borderline mental how after playing for them we then accepted him back with a little pat on the head whilst sending our best striker to them.

Really do ourselves no favours sometimes.

He never left us he was farmer out like a piece of meat he may have gone a few years later
But at the time he had no intention of leaving Everton ( when top players come to Goodison

Different memory of it than me.
He couldn't wait to go, if he wanted to go later, he could of said no.
