Derby County manager Wayne Rooney said he will not walk away from his role at the second-tier Championship club after they were handed a 12-point deduction for going into administration.

Rooney, who helped Derby avoid relegation to League One on the final day of last season, conceded he probably would not have taken the job had he known about the club's financial problems. "I grew up on a council estate in Liverpool and I know how tough life can be... I care about the players and the staff. What kind of person would I be if I walked away and put my feet up or went on holiday for a few weeks?"

"I personally haven't spoken to Mel Morris since August 9. I still haven't had a one-on-one conversation, no phone call, no text message," Rooney said.
