Title: The Rooney's Earnings
Post by: Power to people on Monday, December 8, 2008, 15:46:22

Wayne and Coleen Rooney are said to be "furious" after details of their earnings were revealed in a lawsuit being brought against them by their agents.

The couple allegedly failed to pay two months' commission to Proactive Sports Management, which is seeking £500,000 through the courts, reports the Sunday People.

A Proactive spokesman said: "I can confirm a writ has been issued."

Court papers reportedly show that the footballer is paid £90,000 a week by Manchester United and a further £760,000 every six months for his image rights.

Nike gives him £1 million a year for wearing its boots, Coco-Cola paid out about £600,000 for a four-year contract and computer games firm Electronic Arts gives him a further £240,000 annually.

Meanwhile, Coleen earns £41,667 per month for a magazine column and £13,000 per episode for Coleen's Real Women.

A friend of the couple said: "They are furious that details of their lives were made public."

Over 41 grand a month to share shopping and clothes tips with other, equally vaccuous, dumbo's.

In the words of Johnny Reeves, UNBELIEVABLE.

It's a sad state of affairs... the role of a modern day WAG is awful.

I can't think of a less appropriate use of the word "earn"
