    As predicted the SKY coverage is all about ROONEY. I have lost count of how many times his name has been spoken in the first five minutes.

    It will be sickening if he scores and Derby win. I have never wanted an upset result more than tonight. No Woodrow - Sky didn't mention his name yet. Gerhard Struber made a quick appearance and smiled for the camera but he had his Apple Ibuds in. What was he listening to? The Sound of Music? Edelweiss? Who knows.

    Wouldn't it be awful if Rooney suffered a season ending injury this evening? Well, wouldn't it? would it? Give him time to swot up for his coaching badges.

    It's the same on the BBC. All the coverage is about Rooney

    He will be easy for the Sky camera's to pick out on the pitch...
    Just seen him warming up - looks rather 'plump' to say the least.

    Is it his testimonial or something tonight? I’ve never cringed as much at a pre match build up in my life.

    The coverage started at 7pm. I'm sure normally its 7.30 pm for EFL games.

    Classic line from sky - "does he get the recognition he deserves?"

    I hope we pi*s on Rooney's parade tonight but with Brown and Woodrow out it could be a long evening! Time for Schmidt to step up!

    "They [the Barnsley players] are going to be playing against a player they've grown up absolutely worshiping."
    Pffft!

    Fairness to sky though they didn’t mention anything regarding today’s game until 7:32.

    Embarrassing.

    F*ck sky. I'm watching on Ifollow. I'll never give sky a penny of my money, their coverage is absolutely sh*te and they only care about the top 6 in the premier league. Surely theres a streaming service that can focus on the championship, and leagues 1 and 2. Theres a big enough market for it. Until then ifollow is more than good enough for me.

    The coverage is very embarrassing, and the advert prior to the kick off is even worse
