Wayne Rooney’s career fall-back option: become a priest

Roo reveals his extremely well hidden religious side
Wayne Rooney claims he would have become a priest if he hadn’t have made the grade as a footballer. The Manchester United star said his lack of academic prowess would probably have limited his career options, but his love of religious studies lessons might have pushed him towards a life of institutionalised paedophilia.
He said: “I haven’t a clue what else I could have done. I wasn’t really the best in school. I always enjoyed RE — so maybe a priest.”
OTP can envisage Rooney building strong links with older, female members of the congregation although visiting them in brothels could be frowned upon by his bosses. Also, a nasty habit of being caught shouting the F-word every time a camera points at you could be problematic at baptisms and weddings!


Heh I like his logic… I liked RE, so maybe a priest!! Why not a Rabbi?? etc
institutionalised paedophilia- you ignorant cunt
It’s a joke, Colm. Relax.
I’m an athiest and no fan of Catholocism, but even I think referring to Priesthood as ‘institutionalised paedophilia’ is astoundingly stupid and offensive. Telling others to relax as it’s a joke doesn’t justify your pathetic attempt at humour.
For some people it’s hard to see past the tongue-in-cheek nature of this blog!
Colm and JB84, you two obviously have no sense of humour. Why don’t you try find some Born Again Christian blog to post on. Tards.
I think by becoming a priest he means becoming a priest of his own religion, Rooneyism. The religion of fights, drunkenness, and girls!
Jimbo, I did point out that I’m an athiest so I won’t be posting on Born Again Christian blogs. Is the comments section only here for positive feedback or is everyone labelled a ‘tard’ for finding some jokes in poor taste?
wait so he was going to be a boxer and a priest and a footballer? i dont get this one
Where in God’s name did you get that photo?
