Wayne Rooney

[Juan Albion]

If he goes to South Africa, is he going to wear those black gloves?

 

[porkypie]

Well it will be winter out there!

 

[jordanseagull]

Yes. He rang last night to tell me.

 

[Juan Albion]

Yes. He rang last night to tell me.

Are you female and 50+?

 

[El Turi]

Why was he wearing gloves today. I thought he was supposed to be hard!

 

[dougdeep]

Are you female and 50+?

Close enough.

 

[skipper734]

Good idea?

 

[Marc]

could well be a superstitious thing

 

[Durlston]

could well be a superstitious thing

To miss penalties? Rebounds won't count in World Cup quarter-final shootouts.

The Radio 5 Live commentary made me laugh:

"Nani to Rooney, why is he wearing those gloves for!?"

 

[mcshane in the 79th]

Chimbonda wears gloves all year round doesn't he?

 

[Jam The Man]

He can wear a tutu for all I care if he brings home the trophy

Now THAT I'd like to see

 

[Couldn't Be Hyypia]

When the penalty is saved but the player that took the penalty scores on the rebound is that still counted as a penalty in the record books or a conventional goal?

The goal would be FROM a penalty, yet the ball will be in play and available to all other participants after the kick has been taken.
My guess is that technically the goal would be a conventional one.

Conventional.

 

[Walkers Cajun Squirrel]

My mate has to wear gloves when he does any kind of sport due to bad circulation, maybe that is why.

 

[mcshane in the 79th]

It will go down in the stats that Rooney missed a penalty but scored from open play

 

[Hiney]

He can wear a tutu for all I care if he brings home the trophy

Is the correct answer
