  • A Good Insight

    Wayne Rooney gives his valuable insight. This guy knows his onion bag.

    The other dude who tries to bring some kind of “street” flavour is awful. The guy keeps saying ‘like this like that’. Absolute BBC spanner straight from the draw.

  • My Monday Fix

    This isn’t just another show about the analysis of the weekend games. It also delves into the heart of football - the real lives of footballers, managers, coaches and their families, whilst also looking back at previous top players and past games. As a 60 year old lady I am not the target audience, but I really do love this show ! Thank you Wayne and team for brightening my Monday drive into the office!

  • Why is this being advertised to me all the time???

    Fair play to Wayne Rooney for being paid to just rock up and chat rubbish but the BBC producers who thought this was a good use of licence payer money should be sacked. And why is absolutely every BBC show advertising this? No one cares that Rooney found being up front boring!
