    Very rich perhaps, but absolutely no class. There's an important difference.

    Totally inarticulate numpty; him and his awful wife are symbolic of everything that is wrong with modern celebrity-obsessed Britain.

    Maybe so, but I very much doubt that it in any way troubles the Rooney's. Classless they maybe, but they provide entertainment for the masses, are handsomely remunerated for their travails and don't endanger the finances of others unlike those classy chaps in the Square Mile.....

    I find it rather odd that so much vitriol is thrown at a working class bloke who gets paid very well to play football for living. Jealousy I suspect.

    Although the celebrity-obsession does annoy me a bit, but that's not his fault.

    I have no vitriol for him based on his income. I have nothing but contempt for a man who pays to have a threesome with a couple of !!!!!s, and then cries on the end of the bed wailing 'oh woe is me, what have I done', knowing full well it will get out into the media.

    If you're gonna shag around, be brave about it.

    Would George Best have behaved so contemptuously?

    And the celebrity obsession is his fault. It was him and his white trash wife who get paid to reveal their innermost 'happiness' to Hello or Look, when their brat was born. How ironic that at the time, our Wazzer was getting his oats from a couple of working girls.

    Oh how I laughed, at the rank hypocrisy.
  • And I'll bet that Wazzer is laughing at his bank balance. ;)

    I don't know but judging by the white van he drives it can't be anyone that important.

    Most likely. And that's what is so tragic about modern life. The elevation of mediocrity to positions of respect.

    We'll see it again on Sunday with X Factor, when Cheryl freaking Cole sings a new single. It will be embarassing and lip-synched and so awkward that most of us will want to turn away out of shame for her, but because she's a celebrity already - innit - we'll see the fellow judges give her a standing ovation, knowing full well if she had been one of the competitors, Cowell would be slamming her.

    I love modern life. I really do.

    The white van is the latest shipment of meat from Suzie's LoveHouse in Ansell Street.
