Rooney told frustrated Birmingham fans, who were behind Eustace, to expect &quot;no fear&quot; football under his premiership. <\/p>\n<p>However, after a positive 2-2 home draw against high-flying Ipswich Town in their last fixture, City fell to a fourth loss in five matches when goals from former Brummie Jobe Bellingham, an own goal from Dion Sanderson and a third from Adil Aouchiche secured an emphatic 3-1 victory for the Black Cats. After their latest set-back, Birmingham fans came for the ex-England captain on social media.<\/p>\n<p><b> READ MORE: Wayne Rooney names his favourite and worst Man Utd team-mates over his 13-year spell <\/b><\/p>\n<p><b> READ MORE: Coleen Rooney opens up on Wayne&apos;s use of prostitutes and admits &apos;hurt and shame&apos; <\/b><\/p>\n<p>\u201cGet Rooney out. What\u2019s the point in waiting till January if we\u2019re 24th and -46 goal difference. Hate to be pessimistic but Rooney has f***ed us,\u201d said one angry City fan. \u201cOur defence was solid under Eustace. We were organised and hard to beat. Give me that any day over the dross that\u2019s being dished out at the moment. Rooney ain\u2019t got it for me. Sick of him already,\u201d a Eustace loyalist wrote.<\/p>\n<p> A particularly angry fan put aside some time in their day to tweet the mother of all rants which said: \u201cRooney out.

The positives being Koji Miyoshi&apos;s goal and his performance as well as Jordan James&apos;. Both joint MOTM for Blues. Something needs to change and fast.
