You have probably read the headline and asked whether I am being serious or not?
I can tell you that I am being serious but I don't think that it will happen, I would bet my mortgage that it wouldn't happen.

A campaign by the Pandamonium fanzine has raised £7,000 to put towards a loan deal for Rooney and one Walthamstow-based fan has even offered rent free accommodation to Rooney and wife Coleen in his spare bedroom.

Pandamonium editor Matt Roper this week wrote to Manchester United chief executive David Gill asking for permission to speak to their striker but is yet to receive a reply.

He said: 'We are not pinning our hopes on Wayne saying yes but we need to get someone in.'

You can't help but laugh can you?
