Crocked and rocked

SHELL-SHOCKED Alex Ferguson has accused Wayne Rooney of failing to respect Manchester United.

Exactly a week after Rooney blew his relationship with Ferguson wide open, the United boss has responded in the most damning manner.

In a monologue that lasted exactly six minutes and 33 seconds and an interview with MUTV that had been conducted approximately half an hour earlier, which took the Rooney camp completely by surprise, Ferguson confirmed the 24-year-old had asked to leave Old Trafford but declared “the door was still open” for him to stay.
