Wish people would stop getting high hopes Rafa Facts-
-He will always say he is the manager next season until we mathematically drop
-Mike Ashley would never ever pay his reported wage in the championship
-Mike Ashley only ever bought Townsend shelvey etc because of the high value in money next season
-as above with Rafa our only ever top class manager under him (Keegan not included )
-With the manager/players we are about to lose expect to do a Leeds
-This is no longer our club its mikes and he knows he has fucked up big time so fuck him
Sad times when i really don't give a shit about the danger of going down i expect it , Its karma to ashley the only time he has spent on players/manager because he knows the cash he will miss out on
Even if rafa did want to stay noway would Ashley continue to pay him big bucks in the championship , Staying in England wont be a problem for him a premiership team will come with the huge sums of money they will make
No way will Townsend or Shelvey be with us in the championship , Players like that who join in January always have a release clause if the teams fighting relegation
Norwich have 3 goals more than us and have played a game more.
top stat i did think it was way more , I am currently going off steves time at the club but atm both Sunderland and Norwich seem to have far better fight in the team then us
From theses 10 games we need the team to play like they did vs Man utd (a) Arsenal (h) until the red card Norwich (h) Mackems again until the red etc etc if Rafa can match that or better we will be fucking flying
Rafa is a massive signing for us but i feel its far to late, we need a minimum of 13/30 going by the 4 seasons or a maximum of 16/30 . If we go down Ashley will go back to the old routine and never change back again
