Just calm the fuck down people. There are some serious question marks I’ve this guy. It may not happen at all and if it does he may still be shite. Best to celebrate once we’ve had an opportunity to witness some success from it.

We are switching back to Adidas kits?

I am his wife

He won’t be in a job for very long because Richard Keys is mates with the potential new owners allegedly

We bash out new Ashley threads faster than George RR Martin

Only time will tell I suppose. But it’s the transfer window and Rafas contract expires soon, we don’t have time.

Yep. Though I reckon if true, you will see the shift a lot of people want. iirc, on here anyway, the ashley warnings were based on absolutely nothing because he was an an unknown hermit before taking us over...there was barely even a picture of him Pretty much the first page Toontastic says he is known by his business associates as being a nasty piece of work

To be fair some people tried to warn us about Ashley and we didn’t heed it. I’m not going to make that same mistake again

Would be funny if they don’t actually want Rafa as manager due to a friendship struck up with Mark Hughes

Wtf

Can he not have some Tapas in peace?

From the sounds of it coaching Christian Atsu is a very pleasant and rewarding experience

However the trouble is that because Longstaff is in low wages the money given to Rafa will need to cover fees and wages.

I believe Fergie has said sign him to replace Carrick which is why Man Utd are going to throw bags of cash at us. £45m

I was just making the point that Keegan was just a good Newcastle manager not a great manager. Rafa Benitez and Sir Bobby Robson proved to be great managers all over the world. Rafa Benitez and Sir Bobby both won trophies in 3 different leagues by far the best we’ve had in terms of highest level of manager in charge of the club Mustn’t forget about the glory days of trophy-laden Dalglish, Gullit and Souness. Even Roeder won the Intertoto Cup and Pardew won a friendly tournament in Spain

I remember how we were struggling to balance all the players Allardyce has signed so Keegan with his lack of tactical nous played Owen in the hole behind Viduka and Martins and it actually worked

Think there are legs in this one Fergie would like him and would have no hesitation in recommending him even after so few games.

Time to move on. How easy is it now going to be to get the £1.5k out of betway?

Nice. Not really I was going to win £55.7k if Leeds got promoted

Thanks for all your words of support and encouragement guys. Going to keep it for a rainy day.

It’s been a good run and if you said to me when I made the bet that I’d win £1250 I’d have been pleased so I’ve got to take it and enjoy it. Don’t think I will go with Betfair again as it was naughty of them to remove the cash out option but I’ll try the same again next season. I placed the bet in September and just backed favourites at the time, seemed to work well.

In my mind I’ve given up now to be honest

They’ve gone to sleep we are all still jet lagged from being in Hong Kong last week!

Goodbye world

A grand will still be nice if the worst happens.
