Wayne Rooney has revealed his hurt at being sacked by Birmingham City after just 83 days in charge and criticised the lack of time afforded to him during his brief stay at St Andrew’s.
Rooney lost nine of his 15 matches and supporters turned on the former England and Manchester United captain during Monday’s 3-0 defeat by Leeds. Back in October, when the former DC United and Derby manager was unveiled, Birmingham had been sitting sixth in the Championship table after a promising start to the season under John Eustace.
