Pilko Posted February 19, 2023 Share Posted February 19, 2023 Poor timing from QPR. Few weeks sooner and they could have got Uncle Neil back in. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haven’t been paying attention all that closely I guess. I knew they weren’t having a great season but assumed they were still hovering in the 12-15 range.

It's been fun to not really pay attention to the relegation battle outside of laughing at one or two of the candidates. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted February 21, 2023 Share Posted February 21, 2023 Currently managing in Saudi Arabia after a pretty rubbish year at Valencia and after failing at Watford. Averages 43 matches per club. Rafa's stock really has plummeted beyond belief if it's true that he registered an interest. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbandit Posted February 21, 2023 Share Posted February 21, 2023 Maybe it’s less about clubs not rating Rafa and more about knowing if you get him in he’ll want to do things his way and completely run the shop. I think that’s probably less appealing to the way most clubs are run these days Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
