captainhaircut Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 Rafa or someone close to him has clearly briefed this since they've all released it at the same time. It'll just be to pressure them into taking action. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

54 Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 consider my head in the sand. Since August 2015 to be specific. I've learnt to vaguely appreciate you regardless. Tbf at this point i'll admit I was wrong about Mclaren, I was just sick of the Pardew/ Carver years, that a decent bloke actually trying to better improve the club clouded my judgement no matter how inept he was, should have gone before the January window.

timeEd32 Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 While there's likely some truth to this that Draper article has zero substance in it. Basically "those close to Benitez say he's becoming frustrated..." Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 Like we need a journalist to tell us that. It's hardly a secret that if he gets fucked about he'll leave. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Altamullan Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 Scumbag, s***-stirring press to my mind. If we haven't secured 2-4 signings in the next fortnight then I'll start to worry. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stifler Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 IF Rafa has been frustrated, it's more than likely that it was before Carr left. The two fit nicely together IMO. Possibly. It wouldn't surprise me if Carr was one who was putting a spanner in the works regarding Rafa signing players and Rafa has said it's him or me. Carr has clearly gone because Rafa is being given full control, and I doubt they would go as far getting rid of their loyal puppy dog to just go back on Rafa's demands only a matter of days later.

On the other hand they appointed JFK twice so they might be dropping acid and consulting a Ouija board for guidance. It's all just really fucking shameful if true. They have priors and I'm inclined to believe they're dumb enough to fuck around a manager like Rafa; a manager around with whom you do not fuck. I can't imagine the fan exodus if they pull one of their cunt stunts again. I don't see any harm in hoping things are resolved positively though. It's just maybe not the most likely outcome.

Yorkie Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 It's impossible to know the severity of the issues at present but if anything, the reports have reminded me of how DEVASTATED I'd be if he went. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 My worry when Carr went was that we had been messing about with his targets and we'd have to start again from scratch. Haven't a clue though, we'll see in a couple of weeks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest reefatoon Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 It's this lawyer cunt they have brought in. Yet another non football related arse hole calling the shots.

mighty__mag Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 Jesus, not this again. Cue mass hysteria from a lot of naive people. http://www.reactiongifs.com/r/2013/05/lemmings.gif Sorry, are you not the poster who said Rafa wouldn't be disappointed with the window at the end of January?

Sir Toon Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 Hopefully these little stories, truthful or not, remind people that Newcastle need an owner with a blank canvas of trust rather than one that puts greed, lies, contempt for history and everything else designed to increase the weight of coin in Ashley's pocket ahead of our hopes and dreams of the club being the best it can possibly be. Once bitten, twice shy and all that but this little revival we've had under a Corbyn-esque type of momentum will massively bite the fatman on the arse if he cocks this up. Aside from major kick off, his financials would take a major hit and on that score I reckon things will progress this week on a positive note for us.

HaydnNUFC Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 Personally think it's Rafa telling this to the press. He'll walk if the hierarchy fucks him around; we already know this. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
