  • yeah i read that after I posted.
    would that kind of ratchet up the pressure on Cocu, having Rooney in the background, any dip in form and there'd be calls for Cocu to get the boot and Rooney to step in.

    Got to say I did not see Rooney as the managering type.

  • Nah, the word from our chairman is that Cocu is fully on board and as excited as he is at the prospect with Rooney. Cocu won't be dumped by our chairman either, he has learnt his lesson from sacking managers at the first sign of poor form.

    I don't think Rooney is managerial material either, but will hopefully be a very good coach. Possibly for our youngsters looking to break through from our u18 champions squad into the first team. We'll see.

  • Good to hear. I think Cocu, though ambitious, will stick with you for a bit if things go right (get into the Premier League), and he's got enough experience (winning the league with PSV) so hopefully he can turn things around if you have a dip in form.
