May not be a 'hero' to you but he is to obviously Northern Ireland as he is the greatest player ever produced by N.I and to all Football fans. Rooney goes out and has granny sex, still a hero to young fans today because nodody cares about what they do in their private life (even if it is having sex with grannys ) but what they do on the pitch.Originally posted by Tricky
Totally agree with Chris, Yes he was a good player and yes a few decades ago he was a good man, but that changed when he hit the booze, disease or not we can not hold him up as some kind of hero when he had fallen so far.
He apparently cleaned himself up so he could get his new liver, taking it from any number of others who needed it, and then proceeded to kill that one in record time, and lets not forget the violence and (alleged) wife beating.
I have sympathy for his family and anyone that feels his loss but no sympathy for him.
Call me a prat or whatever, thats my opinion and I'm stickin to it.
