    Derby pretty much relegated which is probably deserved based on last season.

    Be interesting to see how Rooney gets on at his next job.

    Looking again all champ relegation spots are basically decided

    I don't see the logic of hiring Rooney at Burnley. He hasn't exactly set the world on fire with Derby, not sure why Burnley would think he is better than the D man.

    Wayne Rooney in a suit trying to sound intelligent just doesn't work

    I assumed since Dyche getting sacked and Rooney being mentioned you were talking about the rumours that Rooney is slotted to take over at Burnley.

    No offense to Burnley... But theyre a little lower profile than most of the clubs he manages... He's proven he'll go small for enough money, but I don't think Burnley have money to burn, Lee.

    I think he would, he's already got someone else to blame in Dyche if it happens so it's tailor made for him.

    Typical fat **** MO.

    they got some money back off that, and they didn't spend a season in the championship either.

    Getting relegated twice in a season, what a CV.

    doesn’t fit the narrative. You can’t be posting sense.

    I'm sure Derby were handed a 21 point deduction and a transfer embargo, I think any manager would struggle giving other teams a 7 game head start. All considered I think he's done well, and at one point looked like dragging them out of the relegation places.
