Wayne Rooney’s father will face no further action over allegations of a football match betting scam, his solicitor said today.

ROONEY MARA will become a big screen star on both sides of the Atlantic this weekend, having accepted the poisoned chalice that is Lisbeth Salander, The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo.

Wayne Rooney’s father tonight “vigorously” denied allegations of being involved in a football betting scam and was “co-operating fully” with the police investigation, his solicitor said.
