Mirror – Wayne Rooney has been released on bail following his arrest in the early hours of Friday morning.
England’s all-time record scorer was stopped by police near his home in Cheshire, in Wilmslow, driving a black Volkswagen Beetle at approximately 2am.
Mirror Sport exclusively revealed Rooney had been arrested, before Cheshire police confirmed he will appear at Stockport Magistrates’ Court on September 18. – one day after his first return to former club Manchester United as a visiting player.
Rooney was picked up by agent Paul Stretford from the Middlewich Custody Suite, Cheshire, in a black Range Rover on Friday, having spent the night in custody.

You’d think a guy that’s worth $200 million would be able to download the Uber app or hire a car for the night instead of driving home from the bar completely shitfaced.
That’s always amazed me. Rich people that just dont want to leave their car at the bar out of inconvenience or cheapness.
I don’t have two pennies to rub together and ALWAYS make sure I have a way home if I go out. Why? Because I’m not completely stupid and I understand simple math
Not Driving
Cab $100 + Drinks $100 + Street Meat $5 = $205
Driving
$20 in gas + Drinks $100 + Bail $1000 + Lawyer’s Retainer $25,000 + Cabbing for a year $10,000 = $36,120.00
I’m not even a math major. Apparently, neither is Wayne Rooney.
