Rooney signs new 5-year deal at Man Utd. In other news, Larry Pritchard comes out of retirement to strengthen Sutton midfield and Dave Roffey signs on as reserve keeper..................

BORING. Also something I guess most of us could see coming a mile away.
Kind of glad I don't support 'a proper' team as well as Sutton. Life seems to be a bit easier without high earners.

Paul Stretford is a tool. Compleate non-story to boost newspaper sales and Paul Stretford's bank balance (maybe). Hopefully Mr Rooney will respond by actually scoring goals when he comes back from his ankle injury.

Actually, hopefully Mr Rooney will be kept out for the rest of the season by his current "ankle injury" and the Mancs will fail to qualify for Europe, prompting Mr Rooney to demand a transfer to a more ambitious club.

I don't think we can afford his wages! Neither can they, I wish I could afford to pay out 230k a week on debts of £800 million !!! He has been playing like a bag of cack and I don't think Dos would have in the team tbh

Why?
They overspent, now they've got no money. Tough.

Don't think it was the Pompey fans who overspent, so yes, I do feel sorry for them.

I seem to remember them celebrating the FA Cup they won with money they didn't have so my sympathy is limited.

Which is fine but they knew full well it was unsustainable so while I don't have any desire for the fans to lose their club (and with thousands of fans they won't, they'll just lose the company that owes the money and the league place) I don't see any reason to be sympathetic now owing lots of people a lot of money has come back to bite them on the arse.
