From Small Heath Alliance in 1875 to Wayne Rooney's Birmingham City in 2023. You can't hold progress. Apparently. I can't believe he's only 37 when he looks older than me and I'm 55. All those grannies must have rubbed off in ways he'd never bargained on.

i have to admit to being ignorant of Rooneys mis-demeanours as I try not to look at "celeb" stuff, but the granny jibes intrigued me, so i read a synopsis piece of his past (from the mirror).
The guy appears to be an utter disgrace if what is reported has any credibility (s'pose it has, or has there been a litany of libel cases as well?)

Have to agree that any club owner who employs this twonk is asking for trouble and bad publicity.

Rooney and Blues new owners deserve each other.

Im not keen on Rooney, but he did s good job at Derby, if he does well at Blues his next stop is once a blue always a blue!

A few people felt that it was Liam Rosenior, who was a coach at Derby, that had the most influence on the team when Rooney was in charge.

Given his previous two appointments, if he has any future in football management then he has to make a success of this one. Sadly I think this is a â€˜vanity projectâ€™ appointment that will end in tearsâ€¦..

Doesn't make any sense to me as Eustace was doing a decent steady job. Could this be American owners wanting to make a "celebrity" appointment? Sounds like they have a lot to learn about the English Championship.

The aged Balsall heath prossies, are dusting down their zimmer frames, in anticipation of a visit from Wayne.

Sorry, if we can't say prossies.

I think it's fair to suggest he would have heard that

Not one of the granny diddler's finer moments. I remember that clip very well. Lad I knew was one of the many who follow England everywhere including that tournament.

He was really disillusioned by our performances and application out there. When he saw that clip he said something along the lines of 'Rooney and his mates can go forth and multiply'.

He hasn't set foot in a football stadium at any level since. He even point point blank refuses to watch Halesowen Town and they're literally just down the road from where he lives.

I don't think their fixadent would allow that, these days.

The granny botherer is a god send and I think Rosenior showed who the brains was at Derby.

They probably wouldn't need to worry about Fixodent as I imagine Granny Botherer prefers them with their teeth in a glass

Whoops!!!!

The tubby granny botherer bites the dust once more. Are we possibly looking at one of the shortest managerial tenures ever?

Don't want to tempt fate but with luck a fair wind and a decent referee I'm hoping he hangs on until February 3rd.

Only temporary while he undergoes treatment for an unnamed illness.

Hope he recovers quickly
