I've spoken to a lot of Blues fans over the last couple of days and all of them have been genuinely excited. No one should be expecting miracles this season, let's just build this club on and off the pitch. KRO 💙

The way Cook treated John Eustace they basically can get to fu*k as far as I'm concerned.

So glad taylor kept his job! Club legend. This is amazing for the club. Welcome Wayne/Ashley/john KRO

Wayne Rooney’s blue and white army 🔵⚪️

The treatment of John Eustace by the club is disgusting. This deal was done months ago.

Treated John so badly. I expect bigger things this season now.

Not very convincing is he Still can't believe how they treated John Eustace. Having said that- SOTv

Im expecting miracles this season! Come on the blues! KRO SOTV UTB!

Let's goooo

Unfair to Eustice!

Welcome to the club Wayne happy to see how well this promising team does

We have done nothing yet....but ive got goosebumps 💙💙💙

Birmingham fans must be furious! This man who can't even look after himself is a manager of grown men !! 😂😂 Ridiculous

Can't stand anymore or listen to him the fact that he's fidgeting about with his beard he feels uncomfortable about this... he's bloody lucky to be coming back from America and stepped into a job probably 3 times the money as Eustace ..and his crew too .. don't like it don't like it one bit .. capital management company running our club .. sorry guys I feel for us all ..🙏

I really like Garry and trust him to run the club i've supported since i was 2 and my old man took me to watch blues. I can only see positive here and wish Wayne the best of luck. He has my backing 100% KRO

Jetlagged flying first class from Washington DC to Birmingham 😂

Good luck blues

Rooney's managerial record speaks for itself.38 wins from 139 games.28%. Shite.

Yeeer mmmnnmm 😂😂😂

I can only presume they want promotion asap i reckon they will buy big in January these people at the top now are serious,Birmingham fans shouldn't underestimate there ambition this whole situation now is a game changer at bcfc i think if they got into the Premier league this season a new ground beckons.

Waaaaaaagggggggneeeeerrrr! Roooooooooooooneeeeey! Brrrrrrrrrraaaaaaddddddy! Up blues! 🙂 💙

Lock your Grannies up WAZZA’S in Town!!!!

I have to laugh at the comments here. Sincere words, for the club, working man’s ideals etc. wake up ! He’s here for the money and because his cv is rubbish. . He couldn’t get a job anywhere else. There is no loyalty in football. Players, managers follow the cash. Hope he does well at blues but don’t hold your breath.

ROOOO NOSE

Where's the rest of it?

His first words "yeah i think erm id like to think erm basically erm" you cant make it up!!!

To all the outsiders now perving at us: We're Blues, not The Blues We're Birmingham City, not Birmingham

Did I hear him right? When he said peaky blinders creator is one of the owners?

We going to the prem

A very good and informative press conference. Still think he will have a lot of work to do winning over the supporters. The only way he is going to do that by getting results. I think the first four games are key. KRO SOTV 💙👍🏻

Welcome to the Blues Wayne, exciting times ahead by the sounds of it. KRO

Let’s goooooooo!

KRO & SOTV. Come on Wazza. I see nothing but good things.

0:02 Who let a duck into the press conference 😂

A proper working class man being himself ..a good fit for blues

Looking forward to seeing Wayne, I have every confidence in him. It may take time but im fully behing him, his staff and the club leadership team. Im especially impressed with Gary Cook.

Gwan Wayne! Thank you for comimg here. I hope ypu win every game. Up my blues! 💙

Welcome Wayne ! Up the mighty Blues.

Wayne Rooney's Blue Army

Sad to say that the most recent computerised prediction has Blues finishing 16th on 54 points. I think Wayne, the board and the fans expect better than that. Let's all hope the computer has estimated it worse than it will be.

I sure this geezer is trying to be like purslow

Well errrmmmm this didn't errrrmmmmm age well

Come onnnnnn!!!! 💥⚽🌟

Why does he look so pissed off!

KRO 👏⚽️ BCFC

Colleen is way to good for this!

Who the f*ck didn't see this sacking coming?

I hope all fans don't come to the games! He cant even breathe properly!!

Welcome Wayne back to England 🇬🇧

Shambles, can not get my head round they sacked the manager in 6th place wow kept them up last year ? Rooney lol

Huge mistake

Welcome rooney an gang kro

I think we need to be patient and not expect too many leaps to quickly.. let him build give him time and let’s see what can happen

Surely the side has gotta stay the same no changes. From the last two home games Rooney ??? Taking into account the injuries ect

Good luck m8 all the best wen the get B,hind you will see wot we are about....KRO...

Rooney will attract the players to get Blues up this or next season , Eustace proberly couldnt and seen it 2 or 3 years away this board want it now thats clear now.

Good luck & really pleased for you all, from the Gold part of the Black Country,

Terrible appointment.

Welcome Mr Rooney, let's go champ

Not everyone will welcome Rooney or Cole! It's not what we want!! BIG MISTAKE! BIG! .. BIG MISTAKE! AND I THOUGHT YOU KNEW WHO YOU WERE DOING! ... BUT AS MY DAD SAID ... NEVER TRUST A MAN WHO USES THE WORD SOCCER!!! THEY JUST DONT UNDERSTAND FOOTBALL!!

3:33 … that one day, you will get to play against the mighty Villa again! 🤣… No seriously, as a Villa fan, I sincerely hope bringing in a scouse legend actually works out for Small Heath. ahem, I mean City. 😉😘

Unproven manager. Winner as a player. Loser as a Manager. Couldn't find a proven manager? Get Tom Brady to manage the team. Step up Brady.

ERM ERM ERM.............ERM.....ERM

All the best KRO

Let's just see, I'm not fully on board. But Wayne's winning attitude is hard to ignore. I hope that it comes out in the players, in the next match. Keep right on.

Get him out.

I wasn't keen at first but he spoken well hopefully can build something good here welcome Wayne Sacked January 2nd yep it didn't work 😬

Welcome wayne we are all behind you

Welcome Wayne it’s good you and blues have the same expectations and it’s exciting to see what your gonna do in the future up the blues!💙

Rubbish....loose games bring in desperados mess up a current great squad.

Cmon wayne!! 💙💙💙

Hate listening to this winning mentality shite, as if the previous managers didn't want to win

Welcome to Birmingham CIty Wayne. Came across as genuine and motivated to succeed. Given a bit of time and some help in the transfer market I think he will do well. Impressed with Garry Cook. Again making it clear that Birmingham are now a club with big plans and ambitions. It promises to be a very exciting few years for a club that throughout its long history has failed to punch its weight. I think Wayne will do well for us and all Blues fans need to get behind the team, club and the manager. KRO.

Might want to unpin this from the BCFC youtube homepage, this is already looking like a joke appointment.

All aboard the brand new Blue machine 💙 ❤

*This will be entertaining to see obviously Blues are not Derby* *and the owners have cash. i want this thing to work even though not happy about* *the rapid changeover. be certain the first 4 games are key if not the supporters will let you know*

❤❤WR

We will never get a better opportunity than with these lot KRO

I'm on board the rooney train now calmed down about jon bk rooney 💯

This is a random and strange decision to me.

KRO

Has he got asthma ?

Welcome Wayne - side note, how professional was this. Very impressive, its just the beginning

ROOOONEY !!!!

EEEMMMMMM

up the wazza

Nice to not keep hearing competitive Competitive competitive.

Wayne, such an exciting guy, NOT, shave the beard Wayne, not homeless at Ber-ming-im, and smile more, it may never happen

I expect instant results we are 6th

if a villa fan watch this now they laugh big time trust me

These interviews are just nonsense

Im guessing this alinement that Gary was on about was all about the owners wanting at least the play offs this season or promotion next season for which JE was not giving them the right vibes that they were looking for.

Listen we know how joh has been treated and its terrible we were starting to play well supporters as always were getting behind the team but now Rooney well did we want him ?some mite agree some mite not but como'n blue noses lets see how he does if we had wurzel gumidge in charge true blues would still support them so lets go keep our chins up and support the the lads as normal K.R.O

Thankyou Gary for the genuine technical explanation of your thought process behind the change in manager .... I must admit to being sceptical about why John was released and actually being a fan of him staying. Welcome Wayne and your managment team , ATB and success for us moving forward this season . 🙏 KRO from Canada 🩵

Erm

I don’t feel too bad now I know Gardner has a lot of input on the team an that should of made Craig manager

While Eustace has done a good job you'd never for a moment think he's the man to get you promoted. Wayne has been there and done it as a player. The big fear is that this is gonna be repeat of the Zola appointment but these owners are not TTA and if Rooney does not meet the expectations he'll be sacked pretty damn quick. Very impressive press conference which was handled well by Cook and Rooney. The whole aim of the club has been elevated with this appointment and while everyone would have settled for a midtable finish under Eustace now we are expecting a top 10 finish minimum.

I'm so excited, we have got our club back and the ambition is what us bluenoses want. Welcome to Birmingham Wayne and good luck🍀 and I'm sure the fans will get behind you I certainly will."Wayne Rooney is a blue and he hates the villa" KRO 🎉

WR 37 going in 67. Skank. Get lost

First of all a big thankyou for John Eustace a top bloke and always will be fondly remembered by Bluenoses . Big welcome to Wayne and good luck with getting us back to where we belong . Football is all about corporate and tv rights now and having two of sports biggest names in our club will generate huge commercial revenue to grow as a club and invest in the team . our owners have made their ambitions clear . Prem or bust and all we can do is wait and see if this works KRO
