Rooney hoping for cheers not jeers
           
           



  OLDHAM striker Adam Rooney is unsure of the reception he will get from the travelling Swindon fans when he comes face-to-face with his former club - as the dispute over his contract remains unresolved.

Hope he'll settle for "Meh".

I got no grudge against him over that contract, it was those cunts who thought it was clever and financially prudent to negotiate it in the first place

I think he would have played the Ranger role quite well at the start of the season. Far better than anyone we had prior to him joining.

I was a big fan of Rooney, had a decent goal return. Wouldn't cheer him though, but certainly wouldnt boo him.

This.  Thought he was the 3rd best striker we had last season

Groan. Just about forgotten he ended up at Oldham...expect a Revell, Monkhouse scenario. Last season it was Jervis

I think it'll be neither.

1-0 Rooney (Pen) is my prediction.

I liked him (compared to Williams), but think I preferred Collins. He certainly scored some important goals for us, and if I could be bothered to go to Oldham, I'd give him a slight ripple of applause.

Thought Rooney was over rated, wouldn't boo him though.

If he remains in contract dispute (I thought it was sorted) with us that would suggest that the argument is that he has some manner of remaining valid contract with the club. On that basis can he actually play against us if he is claiming a contractural basis remains?

Let's hope you're still thinking that at 5pm tomorrow.

I'd understood it that neither side were claiming he is still in contract but that he's claiming he's still owed money from the contract that was in force i.e. it's not been paid up in full. But I may have that wrong. Don't much care either way.
