geordiedean Posted January 24, 2018 Share Posted January 24, 2018 Not just trophies; what he's already done for the club. Staying on in the Championship to bring us back up when he didn't have to. Bringing fans back from apathy to caring about the club again. Potentially being the centrepiece of a takeover, and seeing out the cancer on this football club that is Mike Ashley. Seeing the potential of this football club and wanting to realise it as a project, even under Ashley. I doubt someone who called him the "Spanish Tony Pulis" earlier this season would see it in that way though. Look i like Rafa but im not obsessed with this love in that some on here have for him. The fellas decisions at times are mind boggling and the football we play is absolutely turgid shit. The football on offer for us to watch now is no better than some of the shit Pardew turned out and is a million million miles away from the football we played under Bobby and Keegan Everyone is entitled to their opinion and even though i do think Rafa is a good manager i don't think he's the greatest we've ever had by a long long way. You're 16 or something so i get your praise you've been brought up on shit an no nothing else. So when someone like him comes along you get giddy, if you'd seen the football we played in the 90s and early 2000s you'd probably have pissed your pants with excitement from the way you go on here at times about Rafa Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keegan and Robson did amazing jobs but they had boards who wanted them to succeed and actively tried to help them. Rafa is battling the opposite to this and could walk to a top job tomorrow, we all know he could. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was 18 when Keegan came in to save us from Division 3 and the next 4 to 5 years was the best I've ever had as a fan of Newcastle we really were imo the best team in the land. We may not have won anything but we played better football than Man United did. Robson years were a rebirth and a bit of hope after Dalglish and Gullit ripped up KKs team. I do think Robson was the better manager though as he turned average players into a damn good team we played champions league football with O Brien,Bramble,Hughes and Andy Griffin for christ sake. I genuinely believe that if Bobby had Keegans team we would have pissed that division by a record margin as good as KK was he was not in the same league tactically as Robson was As for Rafa walking to a top club tomorrow im curious as to which top club you think this would be Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for the Rafa job question he was fucking Real Madrid manager before us, Napoli before that and Inter before that. FFS It's very common knowledge he's knocked back loads of offers to stay in England with his family for a long term project. Honestly that question has made me borderline angry, like we've just picked up fucking Pardew or something. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

triggs Posted January 24, 2018 Share Posted January 24, 2018 Honestly man. You can keep saying stuff like this but what top club is going to hire him? You mention his last three jobs being big clubs but he failed miserably at two of those clubs (didn't get a chance to put his stamp on the team at either) and another relegation or even a bottom half finish isn't going to get him a top job. Although, it depends what you mean by a "top club" as was previously said. Liverpool is the only one I could see, if Klopp left for some reason but that isn't happening either.

Guest firetotheworks Posted January 24, 2018 Share Posted January 24, 2018 Deadly serious, why are you bothered what job he walks into? Probably just a vindication of sorts for the argument that he's currently doing very well despite our position, because the wider world of football still appreciates his worth.

midds Posted January 24, 2018 Share Posted January 24, 2018 This brilliant, poor bastard must feel like he’s trying to push a boulder up Escher’s stairs in attempting to move this club forward. Just a never ending, constant struggle where the owner of the club he’s trying to improve is actively providing nothing but opposition and hinderance. The refusal to invest the money the club is guaranteed to get at the end of the season is backward, retarded and borderline sadistic. It’s all compounded by the fact his spin machine is convincing people he’s doing over and above what he should be reasonably expected to. Worst thing is I’m neither surprised nor angry any longer, this is where we are, this is us until he decides he’s had enough. I’m also absolutely convinced Benitez thinks exactly the same.
