Rooney backed by PFA after red card at school

GORDON TAYLOR has voiced his disapproval of the decision to drop Wayne Rooney as a star guest at a prominent schools match.

The English Schools Football Association (ESFA) say the 19-year-old England and Manchester United is not a “good role model”.

Taylor, chief executive of the Professional Footballers’ Association, believes there is much to admire in what Rooney does on and off the pitch.
