Rafa Benítez (now unemployed)


Recommended Posts

Cheers Rafa  :) I've bloody loved following the club in the last few years. As we all know, however, he is far bigger than this club in its current state and under its current ownership. Very sad to see him leave; and whilst part of me believed he would still be here next season - ultimately you just can't really be shocked anymore with Newcastle United.

I expected Benitez to leave for weeks now, but its still disappointing to see him leave like this. Even though the last 2 years have been tough to watch I still have lots of great memories of the Benitez era. The football may not have been to everyones tastes, but it was nice to see a manager implement a coherent plan and bring some respectability back to the club again.

 

If its true Ashley pulled the plug on more contract talks and released that club statement behind Benitez's back then it just further justifies Benitez's decision not to renew his contract. Ashley could have let Benitez go amicabaly, but decided to stab Benitez in the back one last time. After all Benitez has done for this club he deserved a lot more respect.

 

 

I'm not sure I can follow this club anymore or at least dedicate my free time watching matches on a laptop anymore. I think I might focus on my rugby and GAA teams because at least its enjoyable if not always successful.

We are going to be outrageously s*** next season, and deservedly so.

 

The club is going to be relegated next season without a doubt. Newcastle won't have Rondon and Perez next season and reading some of the players statements on Benitez leaving they will be very dispirited.

 

Even though Benitez did a very good job it was a struggle to keep Newcastle up the last 2 seasons. I don't think any other manager could get this squad of players to beat Man City thats how good Benitez is.

It’s all just so completely pointless. Why be so inflexible with a world class manager simply wanting to work within the club’s means. One that had a proven record of doing just that. It takes a monumentally petty child of a man to willingly demonstrate this level of stupidity.

Luke Edwards can f*** off aswell, c***

 

f*** off.

 

Defo, why would anyone try to paint Rafa as being part to blame or shouldn't be surprised by it.

 

After the fat cunt's history, it is just staggering that Ashley wouldn't get 100% of the blame to some. Memories of fucking goldfish. Luke Edwards is just a dip shit of the highest order.

This is it. Today's developments make no sense ashley will never get more than £350m for the club definitely not now Rafa is going. Stupidity doesn't come close.

Keith Bishop is supposedly in charge of the takeover for Ashley, his agency pops up again on twitter and gets a ton of s*** thrown at them from NUFC fans and this c*** gets to revel in the s*** he is causing the club after releasing Rafa without informing him.

 

They are a bunch of pure shithouses, Bishop needs a damn good hiding.

 

Nah, Barnes is the one handling the "takeover" - a man who presumably lives with someone that actually lets him leave the house with this haircut:

It's him and his mar, hads on while I find the pic I saw of them, oh here it is:

He's not a willing seller.
