Figures 1-0 Football Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 So today is filled with great optimism and hope... How many days until the first negative post about unrest (with a link to a semi-credible journalist) is posted? I give it 57. Get French Football @GFFN 4 minutes ago Rafa Benitez's future at Newcastle is delicate owing to strained relations with owner Mike Ashley, per @PhilippeAuclair in France Football. Newcastle United are in turn following Slaven Bilic's situation at West Ham United very closely, according to France Football. Hmmm not sure why French media would break this news. Turns out the correct answer was 2 days Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turns out the correct answer was 2 days That French journalist has just said that they'll need to reach compromises or he'll go. We already knew this. s**** journalism.

Guest chopey Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 I don't think Rafa will ask for anything like what is being said in the papers, he just wants to feel he has the support Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Figures 1-0 Football Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 I don't think Rafa will ask for anything like what is being said in the papers, he just wants to feel he has the support Makes me laugh how lazy the journalism is. He had an interview less than a week ago where he even stated that he isn't demanding any sort of specific transfer kitty. He's not demanding £100m or anything of the sort. Yet the same old nonsense is regurgitated but the same shit journalists. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yet the same old nonsense is regurgitated but the same s*** journalists. because they know there's doubt amongst the fanbase and easy clickbait. Half of the problems caused here are by stories getting out of hand and the other half Ashley. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skeletor Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 The compromise should be Benitez tells Ashley what he needs and Ashley does it without any Ashley-isms. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sir Toon Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 Cant be going weeks and weeks waiting on news like we did when we thought Shearer was stopping on as the Twitterati ITK's have Rafa walking out tonight. Obviously he will have done like you do when you leave somewhere but these things can be misinterpreted to cause shite. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sir Toon Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 Ashley's helicopter landed at 5:20pm and took off at 9:20pm. So a four hour touchdown in total. Surely that was enough time to touch base and then some? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScottishMagpie Posted May 10, 2017 Share Posted May 10, 2017 First page of this thread is brilliant like. Spent a lot of last night going through this thread. Still get dizzy when reading about him being confirmed in the job. Saw this on a page with an extract from a rag which sent a chill down my spine: "Newcastle had also sounded out former Manchester United boss David Moyes in the wake of Saturday's 3-1 home defeat to Bournmouth, but the Scotsman is believed to have been much more reluctant to take over a side that have claimed just six league victories all season." Fuck!! Imagine if that happened? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
