2017/18 Wayne Rooney

[Goat]

So did he avoid prison time because he pleaded guilty or because he's a millionaire celebrity? Or is that just the law?

Hardly anyone gets jail for a first offence drink driving charge.

Normally the third is jail time, unless some real bad stuff is involved

why didn't he give his apology himself, not that an apologly means anything but it looks like he's paid someone to write that statement and then someone else to read it out.
Let's face it he's let us all down, and it shows in the teams performance, he should be ashamed of himself and Koeman should suspend him.

what a horrendous few weeks for the club in general

Weve definitely had worse, its just that at the beginning of August we thought we were going to win the Champions League next year, and Rooney would win Ballon d'Or, but that hasn't happened yet, so it seems horrendous

More importantly, what happens when my Player Valuation reaches £1million? Is that like the old £100,000
Is £40million like the old £1.5million?
Do I get a plaque for the wall? Or a dartboard with players' faces on?
Thank you

A prison sentence is only likely with breath readings of over 116mg. No conspiracy, it's a pretty standard punishment.

Well then.. I take it we're not organising a march and protest. Who is going to ring up Sons of Shankly for some advice? I mean he didn't kung fu chop a cyclist on his way home did he, otherwise he might have got a 3 (and a half) year ban..

He hasn't let me down, he may have let Koeman down and certainly himself, but not the fans. If you want someone to have a go at about letting the fans down then hop over to the Barkley thread and fill your boots......

Anyone that far over the limit should be banned from driving for life.

Think the courtroom artist captured him just perfectly

Not signing a contract is worse than going on a bender mid season and driving whilst 3 times over limit???

Strongly disagree Pete and I'd guess a lot of parents who brought Rooney kit for their kids do feel very let down.

Have you been drinking Pete?

Oh come off it. As if his drink driving is the reason we're getting battered every week. He's the only half-decent player on the pitch half the time.

Nearly 3 times over the limit. Isn't that 3 pints?

Stupid thing to do but he would have been in control.
