Fans will forgive Roo - Neville
(26-10-2010) Manchester United legend Gary Neville has hailed the outcome of last week’s saga around Wayne Rooney's future as "the best outcome for all parties". Rooney, who openly questioned the club’s ambition, almost left the Red Devils last week before signing a whopping new five-year deal. Neville believes the club’s fans will soon forgive the England striker. In his column for the Sunday Times of Malta, Neville wrote: "When our top players sign long-term contracts it obviously gives us a boost. Wayne is staying and now we look forward to winning trophies with him in our team.” Added Neville: "The main thing is that after a difficult week the best outcome was reached for all parties. He has apologised to the fans and everyone else connected with the club so we have to put it to bed now.” Neville recently made his 600th appearance for the club.
