Has anyone in the history of football earned as much money for being crap at their job than Wayne Rooney as a manager/ coach. If so I would love to know who, as Mr Rooney has never won a single thing never lasted more than 18 months and has received countless millions in playoffs what a life he has.

You'd be hard pushed to find one Oldbri. What an absolute waste of space that guy is - always makes me laugh when he blames his players at the end of a game!
Friend of mine is a Birmingham supporter and apparently the word coming from the dressing room last season was that Rooney wanted them to play like Man U (Fergie's Man U that is! ) and by all accounts several of the players turned round and said, that's fine except were not as good as they were.
Hopefully that's the end of his disastrous managerial career!

To be fair Oldbri I hear he’s very kind to old ladies, grandmas, that doesn’t sound like a bad person.

Never said he was a bad person as I have never met the man, probably very good as father Christmas for his family (he's like me the right shape) but that doesn't make him a good coach ?.

Remember the old saying boys…. The grass is never greener at Old Trafford! Thank god Sir Alex Ferguson was a one off there eh! ??.

A lot of top players don't make it as managers because they expect players to play as well as they did. Bielsa had a rigid system and got the players super fit.
Rooney has gone into teams and extracted nothing extra from his group of players.
The definition of madness is trying the same thing over and over again and expecting a different outcome.

Rooney was on less than £10k a week . still too much though.

Sorry Baz but you’ve read that wrong! He was on 10p a week and a performance based bonus which on leaving he actually owed Plymouth an undisclosed refund, and he had to pay for his own fuel! Him and Fat Frank are the new chuckle brothers! lol ?.

Sorry class my reply doesn't read as I intended my apologies if it came across wrong. I put it down to old age ?.

Good one Woody ?.

The next time Rooney will have 'coach' in his title will be followed by the word 'driver'.

Think Fat Frank has probably taken more in payouts.
