    I did say, how long would the Rooneymoon period last, I can't fault Rooney in his decision to end his
    managerial period at Derby County.
    Rooney was fed promises from Derby County owner / chairman Mel Morris, which did not materialise,
    then the on off saga of someone buying the club, plus the debts owed by the club.
    Mel Morris & Derby County used Rooney, with the hope he would bring more fans to the club, while
    using his contacts to bring players into the club, plus maybe sponsors.
    Rooney has done his best for the club, so should feel no shame in tending his resignation.

    Don't think Rooney and shame have ever been room mates

    Unbelievably with all major bookies Derby County are third favourite to actually win league 1 and similar odds to go up.

    Ipswich and SWFC slightly better fancied but not by much.

    Ok if Derby are odds on to go up ? What are the odds, ( do they offer them ) of them not going up ? Surely they must be very generous odds against ?
