Fans call for Man Utd icon Wayne Rooney to be SACKED by Birmingham after just TWO MONTHS following Stoke ’embarrassment’

FANS have called for Wayne Rooney to be SACKED just two months into his job as Birmingham City manager.

The Manchester United icon was appointed manager in October on a three-and-a-half-year contract.

Fans have called for Wayne Rooney to be sacked at BirminghamRex

Rooney, 38, took over when the club was fifth in the Championship with an eye on promotion.

He replaced John Eustace but instead of pushing the team on, he has overseen a huge drop-off.

Rooney has lost eight of his 13 matches in charge of the Blues, who have subsequently dropped all the way down to 19th in the league.

The most recent defeat came at the hands of Stoke City at St Andrew’s.

The Blues were 3-0 down before the hour mark as the Potters leapfrogged them in the table.

Jay Stansfield managed to net a consolation for the hosts, but fans are already demanding that Rooney get the axe after just 76 days.

One fan posted: “Laters Rooney, its an embarrassment.”

A second wrote: “Wayne Rooney needs to be sacked. He has made Birmingham worse.”

A third commented: “Rooney to be the first manager sacked in England in 2024.”

A fourth said: “Rooney stinking it up at Birmingham.”

A fifth added: “Sack Wayne Rooney

Another joked: “Birmingham City would beat Wayne Rooney’s Birmingham City.”

Rooney has only managed to collect nine points during his time as Blues boss.

The club has won twice and draw three games and lost every other one since his arrival.
