Plymouth Argyle Cancels Rooney Documentary Plans

Plymouth Argyle has halted plans for a documentary detailing their relegation battle following Wayne Rooney's departure as manager after a dismal run of results. Filming, which began in October, was paused last month amid concerns that it was becoming a distraction for the struggling team, which won only one of its last 14 matches. The club had hoped the documentary would boost its global profile and generate revenue through streaming deals with platforms like Netflix or Amazon, but with Rooney's exit, these plans have been scrapped. The project was largely driven by Rooney and his associates, who had connections with the production company Lorton Entertainment, known for previous works involving Rooney. Plymouth's board is also facing scrutiny, with the director of football, Neil Dewsnip, expected to leave due to the failed managerial appointment. Plymouth has not issued any official statement regarding the documentary's cancellation.
