NG32 Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 Negative net spend on transfers during Rafa's tenure, according to this chart. www.thetimes.co.uk/imageserver/image/methode%2Ftimes%2Fprod%2Fweb%2Fbin%2F7b3027a0-96b5-11e9-872e-73f33f6fa5f5.png?crop=3000%2C2000%2C0%2C0&resize=996 If only he had spent his own wages, just think where we would have been.

astraguy Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 I still feel crying just watching video reports three days on I don't live in Newcastle i come from Birmingham and because of Rafa i promised myself i would make the trip to go and see us play whenever i could the past season. That game? The Man city game when we won and broke our transfer record! I enjoyed it that much i planned to go watch us via Wolves,Villa and again City sadly that is now dead i won't ever go again until Ashley goes! Even my 5 year old nephew would wake up every Sunday morning to watch us on motd2 with his Nufc shirt on to copy me because he could see the hope Rafa gave me it pains me to think I've lost my nephew to a different sport/Team because i won't be bothering anymore Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

toontownman Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 Roeder wasn't and Ashley guy. If they are putting Roeder on there then Allardyce has to be on the list. Roeder was a shepherd hire and fire. Never begrudged him, he was out of his depth but don't blame him for taking the job on. He probably should have walked sooner though.

Dokko Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 Doesn't seem real. Will hit like a tonne of bricks Monday morning when he puts out a statement to the fans thanking us and wishing us well, then 24 hours later when he's in talks with another club.

Tbh I've always found this, after defeats etc they tend to, well, not so much put a positive spin on it but definitely made me look at things I perhaps would have missed.

Ketsbaia Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 2 days later and this is still affecting everything I do. Everytime I accidently laugh/smile/think positive about things, my mind quickly goes back into 'No more Rafa' mode. This isn't good, man.

ToonArmy1892 Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 I'm proper jealous of people who were supporting us in the 50's and that.

Shadow Puppets Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 I’m as disappointed as the next guy that Rafa has gone, not necessarily for footballing reasons, but because of the lack of ambition and class that it shows yet again. From a footballing point of view I will miss his ability to organise the defensive shape of our team, and how to grind out a result. In truth I won’t miss the lack of attacking intent (that was at least evident until Almiron arrived). Overall he was an outstanding manager for us and represented the club better than anyone since Bobby. Really disappointing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
