RedDevils76 says:

I dont really care about his negative publicity regarding his personal life, he can do a John Terry or Ashley Cole or even peeping at woman in the toilet. As long as he performed well, win us the titles that would be good enuff.

I disagree mate - I would not want a sex pest playing for us regardless how many goals. Rooney hasnt been peeping in womens toilets but if he had he coluld fuck right off.
I disagree mate, we have to draw the line somewhere. I would hate to see United fans cheering Gary Glitter just because he scores a lot of goals.

"...i just know from experience those who preach the loudest are normally hypocritical twats"

Really, what experience is that then?
I am not the one who has done anything to get my face in the papers today. Wazza did.
How am I a hypocryte? Because I dare say that he has let me down as a United fan?
I am not one of those supporters who mistakes being a fan as having a personality.
Loyalty is a two way street. How am I expected to be loyal to someone who has been disloyal to the club?
If nothing else his crime was being caught.

@take your pick,politicians,judges,cops,catholic priests,lawyers you know everyone that is supposed to be model citizens that preach but cheat and lie and abuse on a daily basis all you have to do is pick up a newspaper.i know you think rooney has committed some morale crime but in todays world alot of relationships have problems and very few marriages run the course.your jumping on this morale high ground without knowing the full facts and having no knowledge of his personnel life which i think is wrong,you think its harmed the club i don't infidelity happens all the time in every walk of life it doesn't make it right its just a fact your blowing it out of all proportion

To be honest I've cheated on my wife loads of times. She's very good looking but crap in bed, therefore I play away. I think Wayne is experiencing the same thing Colleen must be like a plank of wood in bed.

If you read the story in the NOTW, the bird actually contradicts herself all over the show, she says she was at a party when she got off with him on one occasion, stating the whole team was there and saw him lead her off, then she says she wouldn't go on tour coz all the players would be at the hotel and would see!! She also says she started seeing him in June of last year and then says at another party Ronaldo walked past, but it was June 11th or summut when the virus had there bid accepted and Ronnie I'm sure was already in America!! I'm not saying Rooneys been a good lad but I've got a feeling there is a bit of hyping up at least with this story!!

LORD GAGA/RCWIS - Still don't believe it's you lol. Pull your skirt up and get behind the lad, he's needs our support, more than ever.

The real crime here is that he let her get away with charging about £1100 more than she is worth.
I can only hope that for £1200 he made her wear a Stevie G shirt whilst he took a dump on her chest.
I suppose context is everything.

LORD GAGA,

I'm defending John Leslie now?What kind of ridiculous statement is that .The courts defended John Leslie because it was false.The refuge of the fool I am away to do something else,The reason you are away to do something else is because you have no answer that could make sense but hey prove me wrong.

I wonder how long Fergie has known about this? Maybe that was behind getting so many strikers in the squad. Problem is that having sold Ronaldo .... Rooney's irreplaceble at any money.

It was a toss-up between Lord Marmalade, Lord Chatterley or Lord Shave - but I opted for Lord Gaga

Lord Shave sounded the best, but Lord Gaga is probably better.

If you knew someone for ten years, and then he:
-saved your brother's life, or
-screwed your brother's wife,
would it affect your opinion of him?

Yes.

Will Colleen love Wayne as much after this scandal (factual or otherwise)?

I know I will. I choose to love him, warts and all.
Maybe that stems from a sub-conscious desire that my warts be ignored.
Maybe it is no different to The-One-Eyed-Wenger, a conscious decision to ignore the negative.

I am selfish, maybe Wayne is too.

I am unable to disrespect his alleged betrayal, for I consider that to be a betrayal of my declared support of Wayne Rooney.

Would I feel differently if he pulled a Tevez?
Absolutely!

As I said, I am selfish.

When I first heard about it, I was heartbroken. As much as what he did was bad, as a United fan, I must offer him his full support.

What impact did this story have on me ?

It gave me one more reason to hate/loathe/detest "international breaks". I mean, really, this story should have been filed during the soul-searching aftermath to the World Cup.

More seriously, so what ?

honestly I am disappointed with Wayne but not to the extent of disowning him. in fact the only reason i am worried is because of the effect it might have on the club. first of all , he is our most important player and he is the key to our championship ambitions. secondly , his confidence will take a huge knock and usually when rooney doesn't play well , the whole team doesn't play well ( although that is slowly changing and i hope it changes totally). also it came at the perfectly wrong time for us. we have two incredibly difficult games coming up. EVERTON away ( where rooney is usually booed whether he sleeps with someone or not) and of course LIVERPOOL ( who now have a fit torres and gerrard to choose for their squad). nevertheless, it is very painful to be on the receiving end of wayne's actions but he is human and humans make mistakes. no one is perfect. if rooney shows that all the newspaper reports don't affect him tomorrow then i'm fine. all i want to see is a dangerously good wayne rooney on the pitch again. what happens behind the scenes is none of my business.

he will be Wayne Rooney ,the white Pele ,in our personal life we do alot of things ,some times it's right & could be wrong in the other times ,,as a behavior it's EXTREMELY WRONG ,the fact is !! how do you know wayne ? he's a man united player we loved him when he scored his first EPL goal against Arsenal ,we have chanted his name when he scored againts AC milan last season .we love him cause he's wearing the united shirt and he'll keep scoring and fighting on the pitch for this shirt .. I won't hate him because of his wrong behavior (it's a family issue) .it's not our business ,and that's the bottom line .

Love Rooney as a player - as a man, he's a wanker!

Lets see how this effects the team in the coming weeks. But really 90% of footballers are wankers. It shouldn't suprise us - but it does
