taxfree Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 The only reason he'd even slightly consider it is because of bad feelings with Ashley. Literally fuck all else. Really don't think it would happen Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stifler Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 Was always going to rumours of him after today. A defeat or draw and it would be him leaving because the players are not good enough, a win and West Ham want him to replace Bilic. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

A commutal distance from his family vs having to work in London would have a significant factor I feel. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being objective about it, what do we have that they don't? They're not scared of spending money. His family are far closer to us than they would be if he lived in London. He has a 2nd house up here where his family visit and one of his daughters is at Durham university. He came back to the UK and to us to be close to his family. West Ham may give more money out for players, however they are far more impatient and he wouldn't really last long there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Figures 1-0 Football Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 This could of course work in our favour and put pressure on Ashley to give Rafa what he wants. Obviously that relies on Ashley being a normal human being, which we know he isn't. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robster Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 Ashley has shown his hand to Rafa. Rafa will never be allowed to improve NUFC to the level he wants. Rafa wants to succeed. He'll definitely be interested in the West Ham job. If he gets WH up to the top end of the Premier League, they'll not give a fuck about the style of football.

Danh1 Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 Billic hasn't even been sacked and we are worrying about Rafa replacing him. I know West Ham are happy to spend money but I don't think Rafa would walk out on the players that he has managed to bring in or the fans at this point. He has class and seems to be an emotional bloke. If he did do go to them then I do think it would make me lose faith in anyone at all in Football.

sh74 Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 He also said some of the signings signed because of him not the club. So it would be a case of "welcome to Newcastle, fuck it I'm away to West Ham ,see you later daft cunts". Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 A flight to John Lennon from London City takes less than 15mins longer than from Newcastle. Both airports are similar trip from the respective training grounds. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SUPERTOON Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 Hopefully Rafa uses this as leverage for some signings. Or we sign no one and he goes to West Ham. ? Should be a fun last 5 days of the window. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stifler Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 Fuck off, Sky. We literally can't win. I know this was coming regardless of the result today. However after the match Rafa had a smile on his face and was confident about bringing in players during the week. I'm less worried about him leaving now than I was at 3pm, back him to a reasonable level this week and everything will be rosy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
