I can't find anything about the extent of Wayne Rooney's injury...

[notnowbernard]

If anyone gives a flying fuck cares about this burning issue please update me

Thanks

It's not actually that news worthy, but it is Wayne Rooney and we are only a couple of months away from the world cup!

Here It's only a sprained ankle! I know, I know, sprained ankle is pretty major to an international football star!

"Not actually that newsworthy"

How very dare you!!

Seriously, Maureen, I've been dreading this for weeks now. V pleased if it is only a sprained ankle...

I need a saddo-football-enthusiast emoticon, I think

I really don't like him!! I am a Gooner, but the less said about that, the better, right now!

I know he's good for the England team, but he's got time to recover for that. Causing his club to drop a few points between now and May, is no skin off my nose!

Switch it back on, quick!

As a Utd fan I'm obviously gutted that he's out for even a day, never mind up to a month.

There you go, Mo! Don't switch yet...

No, I don't care what happens to Man U

I care about the National Team though

Oh bugger. Now I'm nervous! Still 2 away points in the bag though.

Away goals count nothing if you win!

(look, I'm being nice to a Gooner, who'd have thought! )

Poo.

Anyway. I am very passionate about the National team, but it's too early to worry. Really it is! He'll be fine.

It's the actual group matches you have to watch. We usually lose a player or two during them!

My DB is convinced this is our year!

Ok, Maureen, I'll keep the faith

Better to go away, knowing that you have the upper hand on goal difference, then you don't have to win by as many goals though. Gonna be tough to get more than one in Barcelona.

I'm confident for June.

It'll be my DB's 40th birthday, one which he though he wouldn't see. It's 40 years since we were last the reigning champions (just about) and so I think it'll be fitting for him, since he is currently begining to live life again for real this time.

There's a very long story in there somewhere, but it's really not as dramatic as it sounds!

He's the captain in my FF team. I am a bit gutted after being flounced by DaftPunk and her damned Chelsea players! England need all the help they can get at the mo!

There's a very capable, young, lovely Theo Walcott playing on ITV right now, who is certainly worthy of a place.

I said it last World Cup, and I'll say it again. He's the one to watch.

Mo are you watching through your fingers?

Oh thank god! It's 2 - 2!!

And Dh is still upset after last night!

Incidentally I had a great night out with Arsenal fans in Barcelona many years ago. There was tequila and snogging involved and I suffered my worst ever hangover!

I had old Fab on the bench on Saturday! He is obviously better.

At least you've still got the home leg. You'll be OK. Theo Walcott is fabulous!

A bit of Thierry has warmed me up no end! Don't tell DH! I saw his bottom at Old Trafford once. he has a LOVELY bottom!

Hasn't he just! I sat in the Directors box at Fulham a few years back, whilst he warmed up, right in front of me! Kept me toasty for the rest of the afternoon, I can tell you!

At the Stretford End it seemed unwise churlish to mention it!

I do have a thing about French players though...Ginola, Cantona, Henri.....

When David was on the One Show the other week with Christine Bleak.....Oooooooh! And he is old and grey....

Sorry for diverting the thread! Rooney will be fine! (thinks this is the week to play my wildcard)

Porto...Rooney is not playing saturday....if you have him in your FF team you need to swap him..

Rooney is defo out for a few weeks. You won't get any points for him!
