I get the list thing but it kind of falls down a bit when Riviere is somehow on a list not titled 'Fucking wank players we should never ever think about signing'. I mean, was it a list of good players or just a list of players? i'd have second thoughts about including Gouffran in the phone book. I forgot about Riviere. I wonder what hell be like in the Championship. Shite most likely but you never know.

I hope we go up with Burton.

Did a press conference actualy happen?

Probably more Rafa and all the requests. I dont care hes got what he wantes which means he feel he can challenge for something in thenext 3-5 years.

ANyone know where we can watch/listen to this?

Dont underestimate how difficult it will be for Rafa to outthink the likes of Neil Warnock on a winters night away to Doncaster.

He's been given hundreds of billions from what I understand.

This is probably what the delay on Rafas contract is. Hopefully now this is sorted they can start on Rafas.

By us I mean the fans.

If he wasnt staying he would have been off by now. He seems like the type of bloke that wouldnt fuck us around.

Probably getting the overdraft in place and the contracts drawn up.

He sounds a bit dodgy now I have read a few things.

Just give him what he wants Mike, itll save your more money in the long run.

Absolutely both Blackburn and Forest have had recent takeovers hasn't done them much cop Worked out well for Bournemouth. Blackburn were bought out by a load of Chicken Farmers.

If he doesnt stay we are fucked with that Villa takeover.

Its gone a bit quiet for my liking.

Im not sure thats a spine. I am not sure how comfortable I would be with a spine that ended half way down my back.

Clearly just journos guessing.

Nah, that's too far. I could see us breaking the 100 points again with Rafa in charge, but laws of probability dictate we'll drop points. I said we most likely won't but its worth a fiver.

Worth a bet of us scoring over 120 points I reckon. I am not being a knob and it probably wont happen but the odds will be long and whilst it's extremely unlikely you nenver know.

I think our signings will surprise us and football in general. We will be able to sign players that would never entertain playing in the Championship. When was the last time a manager who had won the Champions League managed in the Championship.

Think it's Chris Sutton who said on the same radio station about a month ago, and I quote: "Rafa Benitez is a big gamble, especially when Nigel Pearson is available" .... these people Steve Claridge was saying similar yesterday. Its literally ridiculous. I have no clue how these cunts get paid to basically say absolute bollocks. Its often the non ex pros in Sports journalism who have the most accurate views. It is a weird industry. Edit: They are probably of the Opinion that if we had Messi,Suarez and Ronaldo as a front threewewould struggle as they dont have rnough experience in that division.

DOnt know why people say his record is shite this season. He's 21 years old, came from the belgian league, played for a shit side in a relegation battle and is trying to adapt to the english game.

It comes across to me like trying brush a situation under the carpet so that there isn't any alarm in the country. The press coverage was so limited as well when you bear in mind the gravity of it all. It concerns me equally if it was in fact a training device as I fail to see how such a lengthy operation would take place without checking.

From his perspective if he doesnt win the championship with us its pointlrss him staying. If he doesnt get assurances that he will get what he needs it is literally pointless for him as he can easily probably find a job at a club in the CL. However I think he wants to leave a legacy and he can here. He knows that if he brings us up and he got us at the sharp end of the table he would be remembered as a legend for a long time. He wont stay if he doesnt rhink he can have us in the Champions League in the next few years.
