Shearergol Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 I do wonder if part of the problem Rafa is referring to about promises made to him is maybe our stance on not accepting low offers for our players? If the money is there and it's just squad numbers being the issue, maybe his real frustration is that we're rubbish at offloading? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJ_NUFC Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 I really think people are being impatient with all this guesswork about what's going on behind the scenes. All will be revealed in the unfair dismissal tribunal where the judge will ask Ashley to apologize to Rafa and the fans again. We've seen all this before.

Optimistic Nut Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 To be honest though, ""We knew when we were in the Championship that we needed to sign players for the Championship and now we have to move people." pretty much equals that headline even if it is slightly dramatic.

You've got to say it's a pretty negative spin on it, though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

thomas Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 I don't think Ashley realised just how damaging that interview was. The comment about us not spending like Man City for example was infuriating. Rafa specifically addressed that point in a following interview when he said we don't want to compete with Man City but we do want to compete with middle of the table sides and those below. Imagine how angry Rafa must have been listening to that. For a billionaire he's pretty dim.I have a President I'd like to introduce you to Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sean Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 Article from Craig Hope in the Telegraph: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/football/2017/08/22/newcastle-managerrafael-benitez-says-mood-club-dictated-results/ Noticed theres a bit in there about Keith Bishop watching Rafa's press conference today. Don't believe I've ever seen it mentioned before, hope it's not another bad sign. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sean Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 He also says that some players, despite knowing they have no place, won't leave because they don't like the money on offer (wages). It's Luke Edwards sorry my mistake, but yeah not positive at all. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Toon Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 Dont know like. I was as negative as owt but watched Rafa's presser and he certainly knows how to gee you back up again. Whatever happens, he's basically saying that he's got this. I just hope he's hanging around regardless in the hope that a takeover does materialise out of nowhere.

mrmojorisin75 Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 For what it's worth, one of my friends on Facebook who is pretty well connected in the area and has a box at SJP reckons that Rafa has walked. Pinch of salt certainly needed, but he appears 100% sure. Here's hoping he's spectacularly wrong. Good times! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No doubt the mercenaries will spin it as "fighting for their place" too. Fucking hate these kinds of players. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
