The football fan that has confused me more than any other is the England fan who will sing Wayne
Rooney's name when they're at Wembley, yet will come to Old Trafford the following week and chant
"you fat bastard!" whenever he's on the ball. How does the England fan do it?
Passionately support a team that [.
I've had my fair share of scraps over football in my time, but never the organised hooligan
business. Whilst not something I'd be involved in personally, I am intrigued about how it all
works. Why do they go around kicking the crap out of people every weekend? Do they really love the
club? How much [.
Manchester United lost five games last season. Wayne Rooney was absent for four of them. In the
fifth, he scored the equalising goal, making it 1-1, before he was subbed off through injury, after
which United conceded and lost. Is this a man you'd want to leave out of your side? If you're an
England fan, [.
Rio Ferdinand, who was oddly overlooked for captaincy by Fabio Capello, lead out England tonight,
filling in for TinyTears' who is struggling to overcome a reoccurring back injury. Playing for his
country means a lot to Rio and he would be right to feel hard done by after missing out on the
permanent captaincy, particularly in [.
Perfect timing for an International friendly eh? England take on the Czech Republic days after the
Premiership season kicked off, in a pointless match at the new Wembley stadium. Training is under
way and it's a case of 'same old England'. "I can guarantee we have 23 men who are ready to
run through brick walls for [.
John Terry's appointment as England captain has got me thinking about what a 'good captain' should
be. The man who famously dropped David Beckham, before realising the errors of his ways (albeit,
too late) and lost his job because of it, has made yet another controversial decision on awarding
the captaincy to Terry.
Wayne Rooney, Rio Ferdinand and Wes Brown all played a big part in England's 5-1 victory over
Kazakhstan. Whilst the scoreline is not entirely reflective of the match, particularly when you
consider the teams went in 0-0 at half time, our lads had a big part to play in the result. After
the match, Oliver Holt [.
There are always going to be players from the opposition teams that you dislike, whilst every now
and again there will be a player you begrudgingly think highly of. It's hard to imagine it now, but
John Terry was actually a player I thought highly of. He seemed pretty decent. However, his nature
has soured my [.
"Die die, Rooney Rooney, die!" sing the Everton fans whenever they face Wayne Rooney,
their former hero. Rooney doesn't stick his fingers up at them, swear at them, or respond in a
negative way. Instead, he celebrates ecstatically when we score and kisses our badge. All a bit of
harmless banter, with Rooney returning the [.
