Wayne says No to Perth!
I don't know if he has or hasn't but it's not going to happen is it.
But talk about a media beat-up Robbie Fowler has sucked in the Aussie media, nice one Robbie - April Fools anyone?

That pass by Wayne Rooney
Now altogether now, "we hate the long ball game," but sometimes it can be effective, and indeed beautiful.
Did you see the "long pass of the decade" this morning by Wayne Rooney in the Champions League Final. The highest level of football on the planet.
Wayne, from Liverpool, chased down a Chelsea player around his own box. He tackled him using his great physique and paced away with the ball.
Flying, he looked up and hit the ball 70 yards, (is that an exaggeration?), at speed, over the two Chelsea defenders who turned to see the ball land on Ronaldo's left boot just inside the box.
Ronaldo made haste and delivered a great ball for Tevez, who missed a sitter, and the ball broke to Michael Carrick, who missed another sitter. It should have been 2-0 and game over.
But that ball from Rooney. I watched it over and over. Seeing the distance, the defenders and the delivery.
Who said the long ball game isn't beautiful? Sometimes it clearly is, even at the highest level.
