Rafa Benítez (now unemployed)


Recommended Posts

Short memories. Just presume that Rafa's being strung along until a contract is signed.

 

No doubt any promises made will be broken. I think Rafa will know this and he'll have to make a decision on whether he can deal with that. The fans love him and the good thing is, were making it hard for him to walk away imo. Well good for us, maybe not so much for himself.

lets hope its not going to be like one of those builders prank videos where all seems quite benign till some fat bloke drops squats over him and rubs his crease in his pyet.

 

Fuck signing any contract (Or extension), I`ll judge this when the window closes & there`s the usual 3rd choice gambles making up a squad of limited talent as it is.

 

I realise how pessimistic I am, but to be really genuinely positive about the short term & intermediate prospects for the club, Ashley will have had to have had a sea change in attitude towards the financial running of the club. I would simply ask, where is the evidence of that in the last year or so?

Really don't know how anyone can say he's definitely saying after that comment.

Can’t look at that comment any other way. There must have been a massive buckling in terms of his demands.

 

Fantastic news and well timed before the weekend, we needed a lift.

Aye, are people reading something different to me?  Still don’t believe he’s staying, and even if he does he’ll still have the fat man, Barnes, Charnley and all the other c***s hoying spanners in the works.

 

Yes, he is all but confirming he's staying ffs  :lol:

Urgh. Horrible timing for those comments, right before a game such as this with the world watching. He'd have been signed if it was happening imo. They'll have bullshitted this week to avoid the chances of protests tomorrow. Expect next week it'll all fall apart.

Rafa isn't the type of person to make comments like that without him being absolutely sure. I understand the pessimism but him coming out in public like that pretty much confirms he's staying.

 

He's not some sleazy bullshitter like Pardew, he doesn't say things like that without there being some significant chances he's going to stay.

He hasn't said he's staying though, he's just commented that talks are progressing well and FURTHER talks are happening which I suspect will probably include ashley as he won't be involved throughout the whole process.

He wouldn't get our hopes up, he's staying and it's fucking mint.

Just seen patriot Crumpy burning Chinese made flammable Spain flags outside the ground wearing his GEROGE MICHAEL DIED OF AIDS IDEMT shirt. He looked very perturbed.

He wouldn't go as far as this if he wasn't tbh, he just wouldn't say anything at all. :lol: Rafa usually just keeps things quiet, if it was like how you say he would just wouldn't say anything.

 

It's pretty obvious this is much further along than it seems if Rafa is confident to say what he has said.
