Wayne Rooney done for drink driving.

[Dazed and Confused]

Just on the news.

Going for the royal flush of "celebrity" misdemeanours it would seem. Presumably we'll have to wait until retirement for the "drugs shame", a true role model for any young toeragaspiring footballer.

Silly lad. As if he can't afford a driver or a cab.

Rooney was arrested shortly after 02:00 BST after officers stopped a black VW Beetle on Altrincham Road, Wilmslow.

Guilty.

Why the fk would he be driving a VW Beetle!

He must have been really smashed.....

I would be very interested to know what his insurance premium will be next year. Surely £10,000 or more.

Of course that's pocket money to him but I wonder how a guy like him gets his cars covered.

I doubt he'll be needing insurance next year.

There are quite a few options for the top end footballers. Not necessarily massively more than a non footballer with a similar fleet.

It's the lads who are pros but don't earn big money that get a hammering, relative to income.

If he's banned for 12 months then surely he will need insurance next year?

That's madness.

If he had nipped to the coop at the end of the street for a few extra cans I could understand it.
But driving that distance when obviously well over is just mad.

Good. It's high time these idiots were taken off the road. No sympathy whatsoever.
