Needs the opportunity to explain himself first and why if he has Of course

Surely a ban if he’s on the wind up. Weird behaviour. I did say all that pish he was talking about contacts in recruitment was nonsense

What does that even mean https://twitter.com/dxvidmetcalfe/status/1143543127485161473?s=21

how come no date is shown between his last reply and your new message? I deleted my last messages to him from 2 days ago. It wasn’t one of my finest moments.. What?

Rafa 16/1

5/1 my mates got quoted Your mates been bumped. 16/1 Rafa to be here 1st game of season on skybet https://m.skybet.com/football/manager-specials/event/23405741

Ask him if it’s a good or bad announcement

He's never far wrong from memory. Certainly has the best interests of NUFC at heart as he's a fan iirc. What’s he got right? My memory (maybe failing) is his name cropped up a few times but never right

Odin just ask him what’s going on? You are the man for this

Rafa has exposed them that without a shadow of doubt they are not willing to compete and anyone who is even willing to take the job now know this so they can fuck off as well

I’m laughing but it’s true

I'm absolutely staggered he still goes to games and gets next to no stick. Not advocating any violence obviously but what the fuck, he sits there basically with nothing coming his way. People don’t care enough because they still give him money, they ain’t gonna care enough to get a life time ban and a criminal record

What a laugh

Seen this rumour doing the rounds. IF that’s true it’s worrying.

Nothing new but it is from the guy that broke the story

Thing is, after what was made public by BZG, if it was being done competently we wouldnt know anything, it wouldnt be played out in the Sun etc. However if it was dead and nothing was happening, it would be to Ashley's benefit to keep it all quiet to keep the fans hanging on in hope. No real attempt to hang on to Rafa, ok maybe BZG don’t want rafa and wanted him gone before buying the club but I feel that scenario is highly unlikely. The names being chucked around for the job and the stories about them going back to ‘head coach’ structure all just seem like there is nothing in the offing. I suppose we will have a good idea with who they appoint and the size of contract they offer him

The game after Keegan left the attendance was 50,252. The first game after Hughton was sacked (Pardew’s first game) attendance was 50,137. This does feels so much different this time tho

If only leaving Sky was so easy. I can take that response one of 3 ways - (1) they are as pissed as we all are with Rafa going, (2) direction from above is don't bother with retentions as we're off, (3) Ashley is a cunt Probably just a case of things being hectic as fuck this morning with no prior warning so they don’t have the time, energy or will to try and persuade people to change their mind and let’s face it what are they going to say “why don’t you wait and see who Rafa’s replacement is” eh nah

There is not one single thing happening that suggests a takeover is at all close, if anything everything points to there being no takeover. The club being quiet isn’t a good sign anymore either

I will accept it when NUFC under Ashley appoint their own successor to Benitez. Until then, everything happening stiil suggests to me a takeover is in the works. Something needs to be said by both parties within the next 10 days though You’ll be disappointed trust me.

Already seeing loads of I’ve alreadt paid for it types.

Fuckin desperate when you think just a few weeks ago we were laughing at Sunderland losing the play off final and that night we had reports of a takeover being done and fast forward to this shit

Amazed people still think this is happening The club is fucked. Just accept it
