Funny now thinking about that lad who spoke to Lampard, who told him he thought the Rafa 'getting the place and fans' thing was in some way calculated. I'm just not getting it myself, smacks of someone with a footballers intelligence/sense of person that can't comprehend a man like Rafa actually immersing himself in a place and getting a sense of the inherent potential. What the fuck does Lampard know about adversity for example? Rafa knows, and he's conquered it.

Like a millionaire football manager could be fucking arsed with calculating such a scheme, man [emoji38]

 

"Oooo, I'll have a walk round Gateshead in the rain for a bit, that'll get loads of likes on Twitter!!"

[emoji38] thing is though, while I laugh I also get how it could very well be possible on some level with Rafa.

Thing is, it is a bit of good PR work, but it's not sinister because he doesn't NEED to do it.

 

He clearly sees the value in having a connection with the fans. Makes a difference compared to the, "The fans cost us the game because they wanted us to keep attacking," bullshit which Pardew trotted out.

 

The man's a god because he's a world class manager and a top blerk.

It's so weird having a manager you actually like and trust. I keep expecting something terrible to happen, luckily Ashley seems to have gone into hibernation for the time being. I didn't really get into football until Roeder was our manager, and apart from the brief euphoria of Keegan (and arguably Hughton) I haven't experienced anything like this before. Hope he's here for years to come.

Ben(itez), the Toon Army need look no more

We all found what we were looking for

With a gaffer to call our own

You'll never hear us moan

And you our friend will see

Your friendly Toon Army

 

Ben(itez), you've been managing here and there

You feel you're not wanted anywhere

If you ever look behind

And don't like what you find

There's something you should know

St James' you should go

 

I used to say "NUFC"

Now it's "Rafa's Toon Army"

 

Ben(itez), most club's fans would turn you away

We won't listen to a word they say

They don't see you as we do

I wish they would try to

I'm sure they'd think again

If they had a boss like Ben(itez)
