Sky Sports Presenter’s X-Rated Slip of the Tongue Leaves Fans in Shock During Discussion About Wayne Rooney

SHOCKED fans doubted their own ears over Sky Sports presenter’s brutal X-rated jibe

The incident occurred during a live TV segment when Sky Sports presenter, Rob Wotton, made a mispronunciation that turned Wayne Rooney’s brutal jibe into an X-rated slip of the tongue. The mispronunciation was an even more startling event than Rooney’s verdict on the latest defeat for his Birmingham team. Rooney, who is the Manchester United legend, claimed that his side was so bad in the Tuesday 3-1 home loss against Stoke City that he would have subbed them all at half-time if he had been allowed to. Wotton’s unfortunate lapse in pronunciation while relaying Rooney’s words took the comments from the ex-England skipper to a whole new and dramatic level for many viewers. This has raised concerns and questions among fans, leaving them in shock and disbelief.

Outrage and Poking Fun on Social Media

Following Wotton’s blunder, fans took to social media to express their shock and amusement at what they had just heard. One viewer posted on X: “I had to have it pointed out to me what he actually said. My mind is in the gutter.” Others suggested that the mishap sums up Birmingham’s current plight since Rooney replaced John Eustace in October. Stoke’s victory left Birmingham in 19th spot with just nine points from 13 matches under the 38-year-old. This has led to outrage and ridicule from football fans, with one X user writing: “We are the laughing stock of football, man…. everyone’s taking the p*** out of us.”

Rooney’s Own Words

Following the game, Wayne Rooney expressed his frustrations with the team’s performance, stating, “Ideally, you wish you could have 11 subs as I could have changed all 11 players at half-time.” He criticized the lack of effort and stated that the team had not been doing the right things, particularly the basics. Rooney further expressed his frustration, stating that their performance was difficult to take, especially after making real strides in previous games.
