Twinport53 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. (I will put it in Braindead Twitter just to cover my back as well) Looks concrete to me like.

We'll see. There's other reasoning for me to believe that he knows what he's talking about and knows people within the club... but he's already backtracked and said "expect something to be announced by early next week". Jesus, how slow is he walking? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

NUFCDoog Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 Gonna be weird tonight going to the match and not seeing Rafa sat there then with no announcement whatsoever. Probably see him walking down the A1 on the way in Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MSC26 Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 Utter shite about that bloke in the box on Facebook. Why do people post such drivel? I know it's false. My Uncle has a friend on Twitter who follows @NUFC and is followed back by Lee Marshall and my mate went for a pizza last night down Wallsend high street and they both said at 11pm they looked up at the sky and the stars were all lined up to spell "Lee Ryder" so they looked at Lee Ryders Twitter and saw nowt. So he's definitely quit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happinesstan Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 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). No doubt the mercenaries will spin it as "fighting for their place" too. f***ing hate these kinds of players. That's the danger though. We offer cheap PL wages which is still higher than Ligue 1, a fair few Serie A clubs, so the clubs who would fancy them can't match the wage. It's not like the top end of the league where £100k a week setsvthem for life. The likes of Haidara, Riviere are only going to see these wages for 4-5 years and that's them done. They earn the average annual salary each week. They earn more than a lifetimes average salary in a year, they can fuck off and die. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJ_NUFC Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 When does Hindus mate reckon the announcement will be made exactly? My "mate" reckons he hasn't in fact walked yet, but will do by early next week due to a very specific problem. But fuck knows. Just what we needed. This club, man.

ponsaelius Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 I heard he was leaving from an extremely direct source about a week ago. They also said the club were lining up Shearer as replacement mind, so I wrote it off as drivel. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another interesting thing that popped up in the Shields gazette, apparently Ashley and Charnley still haven't come to an agreement with the players over their bonuses this coming season.
