WAYNE Rooney has admitted that Plymouth Argyle's current woeful run of results 'hurts' as scrutiny over his future at Home Park intensifies following the 2-0 defeat away to fellow Championship strugglers Oxford United on Sunday.
The Pilgrims are bottom of the Championship with only 18 points at the halfway stage of the season and it is now nine games without a win, with the travelling Green Army making their anger and frustration both during and after the final game of 2024 at the Kassam Stadium.
Criticism of Rooney has been building among the supporters for some time after a desperate run of results which is putting the club's status in the second tier of English football in serious jeopardy.
Asked after the defeat by Oxford whether we would consider his position as head coach he replied: "I think you have to look at every possible outcome. I think that's normal with the results we are going through.
"You have to feel can you turn it around, have you got the players to turn it around, can I turn it around, can the coaches turn it around.
