Not a great start to the season for
Man U.lol
Rooney's fuel fiasco
The Manchester United star and his wife had to be rescued after he filled Coleen’s £90k 4x4 up with the wrong fuel.
Multimillionaire footballer Wayne Rooney and his wife Coleen were rescued from the M62 in Cheshire when the customised Overfinch they were driving sputtered to a halt.
Turns out Wayne filled up Coleen’s super diesel bling-bus with unleaded petrol. According to the Mirror, the couple’s car gave up between Junctions nine and 10 at Warrington, with plenty of rubber-necking had by a number of passers by.
One motorist told the Mirror, “The traffic was running slow, so we got a good look. The hazard lights were flashing and Wayne was talking to a Highways Agency patrol driver. He looked pretty sheepish.”
A member of staff at the Burtonwood Services, where the couple stopped to refuel, told papers Wayne was the one driving and it was the footballer himself who got out to refuel.
Needless to say, Coleen didn’t seem very impressed with her new husband’s mistake. The cost of flushing an engine out to repair the damage caused by putting in the wrong fuel can be prohibitively expensive. But perhaps not for the Rooneys.
The tabloid-happy couple aren’t short of a ride, however. They reportedly own, amongst others, a Lamborghini Gallardo, Bentley Continental GT, BMW M6 and an Aston Martin Vanquish.

For those of you interested in football.
Chelsea have just beaten Portsmouth 4-0 and Spurs won their first game in the carling cup games. I guess Spurs are just getting ready for
Man U.
