The huge amount Wayne Rooney earns as Derby fail to pay players on time

After finding out the huge amount Wayne Rooney earns as Derby fail to pay players on time whilst also listening to Mel Morris explain the situation, fans gave their reaction with some mocking them…

Did Rooney get paid? Maybe that is why the players didn’t get paid. Not a very bright business man!

Sounds like things are going well then. Awful way to run a club.

@JoeMidson: Oh dear!

@lindalejohny: That would be another dodgy investment deal to get around FFP rules then. Totally immoral club from the top down

@cutetwiglets: Can they sell their stadium again??

@morleywhites: Where all the money from the ground sale gone? wasn’t it 80 mill?

@DavyoO: Surprised he hasn’t released a dvd of Derby’s playoff victory against Leeds last season… as they will do anything to be Leeds rivals and it would pay Rooneys salary no probs…

@AzzaLufc: That’s a lame excuse……the players should still of been paid on time. The funds should of been set aside for this to happen. What Morris is basically saying is,’I’m not paying the players when new owners are coming in’!

@andybmth777: Fixed costs not being paid is a very bad sign

@meandonlyme67: Things are not gonna end well for Derby and their dodgy books will come to haunt them

@stewallace86: Mel Morris being found out eventually. Derby fans thought he could do no wrong. Sells stadium to himself for an inflated price, signs Rooney in conjunction with Red32 and now needs further investment to pay wages…doesn’t sound great does it.
