No point taking him. Leave him at home and give someone else the chance.
Rooney banned for 3 games at Euro 2012

We'd do well to get past the group stage anyway.
1 down, just Gerrard, Lampard and Terry to go now.
Please please please please please let something terrible happen to all three of these "golden degeneration" sheeeeetsOriginally Posted by 99mph
That was what I was thinking as well. I wouldn't be surprised if Capello took him anyway though!
As for the FA potentially appealing against it, to me that is laughable as if it happened in a domestic game it would be an automatic 3 game ban anyway!
No point taking him?
Whether you like him or not he is by far and away our best player and one of only two in our squad that would walk into any team in the world with ease.
''Do not scratch your eyes!''
And our entire tournement will revolve around him being there and waiting to play. Leave him behind and the players can concentrate on what they need to do without the media circus he brings with him.
This, exactly this.
Imagine this, we get through the group stages somehow, and then are embarassed in the knockout stages and then the media will claim that Rooney should have come. There would be a media circus anyway. I'm undecided on whether to take him or not, fantastic player and striking up a wonderful partnership with Young, but a massive massive twunt.
Be Pozzo-tive
So many ifs, but if Ingerland take Rooney he will be targeted by every team that you play, just waiting for the red mist to appear.
Leave him at home ,let someone else come thru that will not embarras the nation.

"Whether you like him or not he is by far and away our best playe" Based on his Man U performances I'd be inclined to agree. However based on his performances for England I'm nothing like as sure.
I don't get this "best player" nonsense. Exactly what did he do in South Africa?
If you appeal is there a threat of the ban being extended.

Doesn't matter anyway. We're useless regardless of who plays.
Don't Mess With Texas
Ashley Young and some others look like they are trying and reasonably good
A three game ban as I expected.
Whoever goes the format will be the same. Limp through the group stages, then go out to someone on penalties after playing out a painfully boring 0-0.

Whats the fuss about? A straight red is always a 3 game ban, and kicking someone is always a red. Don't see why everyone's so shocked! Lets be honest with Capeello we'll be lucky to win a game, the sooner the euro's are over the better imo
The sooner Capello goes, the better.
Perhaps a failed tournament will be enough reason not to offer him another contract, although by then it would probably be too late.
Leave Rooney behind, he might actually learn a lesson!
He's going at the end of 2012 I think.
Lets not get too het up on getting an English manager as many have failed in the recent 3/4 decades (Robson and Venables apart)...including our own GT ofcourse.
Maybe missing some games will ensure Rooney is motivated enough to perform for the latter stages if the team get that far.
Well , between Robson , Venables , GT and Sven and Capello , that eats up quite a few of those 3/4 decades!!
Ofcourse..but my point was we haven't been blessed with the best of form even with an Englishman in charge expect for the odd tournament.
