Wayne Rooney's dismal start as Birmingham City boss shows no signs of improvement, with the team suffering yet another defeat to Hull City and failing to score any goals. The poor performance has led to Birmingham fans expressing their anger by booing Rooney off the pitch. Despite the backlash, Rooney has taken responsibility for the team's performance and asked the fans to be patient as he works to change the club's culture and identity. His early struggles have drawn comparisons to the Rowett/Zola era, but Rooney remains committed to his role.

Usually a new manager is greeted as a potential saviour. But this isn't a usual situation at #BCFC. The night started with me chatting with Bluenoses about the decision to bring in Rooney. Most were cautious but optimistic. It ended like this 👇 https://t.co/4hr6zW2lSA

ROUGH START FOR ROONEY 🤬 Birmingham City were booed off the pitch after losing WAYNE ROONEY's first home game as manager, with fans directing much anger at the new coach. It's now back-to-back defeats for Rooney at Birmingham, scoring 0 goals. 😳 https://t.co/eRvdn0Eq5A
Fair to say Wayne Rooney's honeymoon period at Birmingham City didn't last long. Early days, but the Eustace/Rooney change looking rather Rowett/Zola at this stage @RobTannerLCFC #BCFC https://t.co/vFz7mm7kE5
A lot of #BCFC fans want to move and look to the future, but there is a caution and trepidation about the arrival of Rooney. By the end of his first home game, a few had already had enough. It has been a tough start to life as Blues boss for Rooney. https://t.co/NYr9AdHghm

That was a ‘different’ home debut for Rooney at #BCFC. The honeymoon period was very short lived!
Wayne Rooney’s first home game as Birmingham City boss ends with him being booed off the pitch. Have to say there was an overwhelming lack of support for the new head coach, who replaced John Eustace several weeks ago. Two losses on the trot for BCFC. https://t.co/f4abnrHeS2

Tough start for Wayne Rooney at Birmingham. Two games, two defeats and told by one fan to 'F*** off back to America' as he headed to the exit...
Rooney's home debut is not going well. #BCFC looked disjoined in the first half and caused their own problems with some indecisive passing out from the back, and a blind back pass from Longelo gifted Delap his goal.
At #BCFC for the home debut of Rooney's Blues tonight. I had a look at how they shaped up at Boro for a glimpse of what Blues fans may get to see over the coming weeks. Tonight will be interesting. https://t.co/NUOXOqiqRj
