Man Utd Ramblings – Roo Suffers Setback

By: Wayne Farry | February 11th, 2009

According to The Guardian, Wayne Rooney has suffered a setback in training during his rehabilitation from the hamstring injury he suffered against Wigan in January. The injury ruled him out of England’s friendly tonight with Spain and out of United’s past few games.

Ferguson had been saying last week that he would let Fabio Capello decide whether or not to bring Rooney into the squad, but he has apparently suffered an injury in training and it’s said that Ferguson has already ruled him out of the weekend’s FA Cup tie with Derby. He’s only a ‘maybe’ to be back for the midweek against Fulham.

There’s not been much on this so I can’t imagine it’s too serious, especially as Fergie regards him as a ‘maybe’ for the Cottagers match. Hopefully he’ll be up and scoring soon.

Little United fact that I read over on the Man Utd website; 923, yes 923 Football League managers have lost their jobs since Fergie took the United reins in 1986! That is one hell of a statistic, in my opinion.

Wayne’s Fact Of The Day: Although Fulham’s nickname is The Cottagers, a ‘cottager’ is actually a man who has anonymous sex with other men in public toilets, rendering Fulham’s nickname rather amusing. Hope that’s brightened up your day!

    You’re right miele, Georgie boy is a cottager through and through, at least, he tried to be.

    And I’m not even going to dignify your second question with an answer! You think I’d stoop so low as to make up definitions for fetish sex acts?

    For shame, miele.
