Everton striker Rooney\'s community service plans suffer setback

Published on: 24 October 2017

Everton striker Wayne Rooney's community service order has hit turbulence.

Rooney, who turns 32 tomorrow, was banned from the roads for two years last month after he admitted to a drink-drive charge in which he was three times over the legal limit.

He was ordered to serve 100 hours of paid work as part of a 12-month community order, says the Mirror.

Rooney had wanted to teach children football - like did Eric Cantona when he was given 120 hours of community service for karate kicking a fan.

However it takes 28 days for necessary checks to confirm his suitability to work with children - and community service starts a week after sentencing.
