Wonder how Adam Rooney will be looked back on in a decade or 2s time? More goals than Shearer in a similar amount of games

For me Shearer second only to McDougall as an out and out goalscorer,

Well deserved. That side of 1992-93 and 1993-94 played some of the best football in our history, yet inexplicably ended up trophy less.

92-93 side would win the league by about 20 points nowadays.

Fucking terrific side.

He won't be in hall of fame. Not even in the same postcode as Shearer.

Would be an unlucky postman who had to deliver to both Fort William and Aberdeen.

Agree with you there

 

i just wonder if the kids of the 2010s will grow up to tell tales of the great Adam Rooney to the youth of the 2030s/40s ! Great goal scoring record and as many medals as Shearer, sadly

Exactly. Sadly, history has largely forgotten about the team of those two seasons, but we were only bested by a Hun side that first of all, went unbeaten in Europe (including home and away against the eventual winners) and were 90mins away from the Champions League final. The following season, we were a whisker away from knocking Torino (then one of Italy's top 3 sides) out of Europe, after being ahead in both legs, whilst chalking up the most away league wins in Britain. A great attacking side, once again bested only by a high-spending Hun team. 

In the post-2000 climate of Scottish football, the team we had those two seasons would win the SPL and several trophies, perhaps even be Champions League group regulars.

Adam Rooney - Stratford Town 

Southern Football League Premier Division, so tier 7 of the English football league pyramid. His career has fair nosedived since heading to Salford.

Had a look at Stratford's history, they seem to love a famous manager. Dean Holdsworth is currently in charge, before him was Tim Flowers... and in 2019, a certain Tommy Wright ?

[Dynamo]

Derek McInnes. 12th place in the Scottish Premiership.

[strachanmcgheegoal]

Aye but there was a lot to like about them the day.

Apart from Kyle Lafferty, obviously.

Shearer came to us when he was 29, almost 30 and still scored a shed load of goals. 

Rooney was good, but not on the same level as Shearer. Don't think Rooney would still have been as consistent as Shearer was.

Rooney was shite the last 2 seasons with us despite many supporters backing him due to past success.

I see Cosgrove has been on the bench for Birmingham. Wonder if they’ve sussed out he isn’t Watkins yet.

Are they part time? 

Surely at that level they must be. 

Is he a taxi/uber driver now, with fitba as a side gig?
