How do you know that?
Phew, that's alright then; he didn't refuse to play, he just couldn't be arsed.
The 'lack of motivation' is no different to the games where Rooneys been subbed. No point him playing, if he players without desire. He obviously won't feature next game either.
If he does do a u-turn it should be on our terms and we should offer him a reduced contract.
One possible solution to this conundrum might be that Fergie was bullshitting the media like he has for 26 years.
20k a week
Don't think he tweeted that, he wrote something on facebook about looking forward to the celebrations.
He did tweet it, but it's been deleted in the past few hours (I saw it earlier today).
EDIT: It's still visible on his wife's Twitter page:

I'd rather he go and find whatever it is he's looking for than stay and play mind games with the club and fans. There is no doubt in my mind that we couldn't improve the squad with the funds and at the same time send a strong message to others, no one is bigger than the club and if you don't want to play here you are free to go.
It's still visible, just have to click all in the top left just before his tweets.
Chances are they'll strengthen up in the striker or goal scoring department in the summer one way or another.

Nobody wants Wayne.
But I thought he was rated more highly abroad 
feckin hell, we'll be stuck with him at this rate.
There are certain denials that stand out as BS a mile off, but ones which include "I don't know what Rooney would bring to the Bundesliga" sound convincing. Ouch.
But I thought he was rated more highly abroad
But Munich isn't really abroad.
It's as English as Manchester, Liverpool, London or Paris.
Beckenbauer rates him anyway. Quote from March.
PSG would definitely be interested anyway. They'll buy any big name player.
Yeah right, Gomes and Muller..
The Times. We've gone full circle again.
But SAF will still be at United.
The last of those great street players?
I'm going to make the "Bring Rooney home" pledge. I'll upload the video and create the site the day he signs for someone else.
He won't be the manager, he won't be in training, he won't pick the team, pick the tactics, etc. A player doesn't leave because he has a problem with a director, even if he is the former manager.
Remains to be seen if it's true, of course, but I reckon it will. I've been saying for a few days that I don't think Rooney has a problem with the club, simply the manager. Now it'll be a different manager so it's a new page.
the big unknown at the moment is the relationship between Moyes and Rooney - obviously they fell out in the past but is it all behind them or not?
as that will obviously impact on what both want

Taking the Times article at face value for the moment.
So had SAF not retired Rooney would have pissed off due to being subbed and a failure to treat him as he feels he deserves? There is no sense of contrition at all here, arguably disrespectful to the team mates who took his place and did well for the club.

How much did Rooney have to pay Moyes in the end?
He'll stay, the overpaid twat. As I said earlier in the week he's a dummy.
Just hope Ferguson - Rooney - Moyes doesn't disrupt next season.

Dunno, but Moyes donated it to charity.
Incidentally, I can't believe how oppo fans think they can convince Rooney to join their club by tweeting stuff like: 'Love to have you at Arsenal, Shrek #signbaldy,wenger'
But what exactly will he be doing? what does a club director actually do?
Well Piers Morgan should've been banned from Twitter ages ago.
I'm not sure if that would annoy me more or less, getting sued and the other bloke giving away my money or if be just bought a speedboat.
Get rid, I don't want him anywhere near Old Trafford. Most of us forgave him last time, but he doesn't deserve the same treatment this time around.
I bet he was kicking himself when Fergie announced he would retire, it's obvious their relationship has been tarnished.
We will cope without him, and he will regret asking to leave.
Flog him to a team abroad for £30m.

I am firmly in the anti-Rooney camp, but I can understand that if he did have issues with SAF it is pretty much an impossible situation for him. You have "issues" with a man regarded to be the greatest manager of all time - what do you do? Grin and bear it? Any criticism is likely to be met with widespread hostility from the fans etc simply because of the standing of SAF.
He should take a massive cut from his current 250k a week, which he doesn't deserve anyways given his performances and shitty attitude, if he decides to stay with us after-all. Overpaid gimp.
And rightly so. SAF does what's best for United. Rooney does what's best for his own greedy selfish interests, just like the last time he held the club to ransom. Of course the fans would stick by Fergie rather than an overpaid selfish idiot.
Well you don't walk out onto the training pitch at the beginning of 2012/13 looking like the Goodyear blimp for starters. Nor at the first sign of serious competition do you do a flit.
