For me it's his pathetic hold up play and the fact every lay off or pass doesn't go to a black and white that stands out more. He isn't even Championship standard, he's appalling.

Here's a madcap idea, why don't we buy one

Ah yes, timing of the whistle blow

1st pen was good use for it because I thought in real time it looked a pen, but soon as I saw a replay didn't look it. Only thing I don't like is how it's a drop ball after, surely should be a a corner? Aye i would have said it should have been a corner as well. Rugby League when they use the TV referrals, they use it to find out what the restart should be after whatever incident they're looking at, football needs to follow that example, or they are and they just got this one wrong.

Well VARS did well with them pens like.

Apart from Almiron have we even been linked with anyone for an actual fee, i only recall loans

Crystal Palace seem to, Zaha is playing and he's more important to them than any of their other players. Zaha hasn't been important to them this season, he's been awful for most of it. And yet for such a long time every game in the league he didn't play they lost. If Palace can put our a fairly strong team, them being only a point above us i don't why we couldn't, the answer to that being Palace are prepared to spend, when we're obviously not i guess.

6-2 absolute hammering this.

5-2, Vilhena with their 5th, he's been impressive like.

4-2 now.

3-2 lovely football being played.

It's been brilliant, 2-2 now

It's not about selling though is it Ian, we don't know the figures but he must be making enough money out of us to keep the club. I know another relegation would hurt but he's been through that twice, the thick twat probably thinks that'll be easy enough to get out of again. That and he knows how professional Rafa is, Rafa keeps us up and the gravy train keep pouring down the fat fucks throat.

Don't know if it's just me but someone is beginning to remind me of Tubestation and the relentless posting of the same thing.

Part of me wishes Rafa will come out at the next press conference and say 'the people running this club are a disgrace' or something similar. I know he won't as he's far too professional for that though.

I know but some still need convincing

If you ever wanted evidence that they have no intention of spending any significant amount of money this would be it. I don't think we were ever serious with Almiron either, same as ever and just like the takeover bullshit, just pure bullshit.

Playing devils advocate as I get the injury worries but winning breeds confidence, we just won two on the trot and chucked away the lift from that by losing today. Not saying Rafa is wrong, that sits on Ashley and not funding the squad properly. Just commenting on the confidence thing.

He deserved every boo he got. I'll have a try this time, who would you replace him with ? It's not about who you replace him with. It's him going that will spark events and hopefully open people's eyes that u can't just sit there and accept what's going on So we might sign a left back on loan from a team bottom of the French league. Is that enough for people to renew season tickets. People need to stop accepting this s*** it's been 12 years not 12 weeks or months. He was asking Crumpy specifically as he's wanted Rafa out from near the start of the Championship season (not even kidding) but hasn't once answered the question of who he'd replace him with. Aye, what KI just said.

It's a running thing with Grumpy dude, thinks Rafa is shite and never says who should replace him.

Why on earth would Watford play a second string team!? I'm not saying they won't as I don't even recognise football these days but I can't see any reason why they should I think that's to do with teams buying decent squad players as well as a good first team pool of 15/16 odd in a squad of 25. When you used to have a lot of youngsters as back up, now it's back ups who cost £10m +, i guess managers feel they have to give those back up players games. Having decent back up players is a concept that us as Newcastle fans are alien to

Maybe no opponent to play as their scheduled opponent is in the FA Cup ? Then the Football league hasn't rearranged a league game, i would think.
