I hope Benitez tears Ashley apart with his statement.

 

I wouldn't be surprised if Ashley tries to counter it by leaking a positive takeover story in the press as well.

 

Or sacks Charnley for letting Rafa go.....................perfect scapegoat that certain fans would lap up.

Rafael Benítez is more than just a football manager, he united a divided fan base behind a broken club just by taking the job, he made us love & care again, showed us pride, passion, desire & work ethic. his commitment to the community is the measure of a great man. One of the greatest managers in Newcastle United history, Thank you Rafa

This is absolutely grim, we had it all there in front of us, an extremely talented manager, the foundations of a decent squad, full houses and people falling in love with NUFC again.

 

Now its the complete opposite, by far the worst feeling I've had in my 20 or so years of watching football.

Part-excited, part-heartbroken for tomorrow's statement.

 

For me, he was more about hope, ambition and potential rather than actual achievement, as I'm sure many managers out there could get this set of players to 15th-17th. Rafa gets the club, he gets the fanbase and it was great to finally stop hating the manager.

 

For all we know, he's waiting for the takeover before returning back. Or he'll take another job but eventually make a comeback. So, for the moment, goodbye and thanks for briefly hooking me back in.

 

I dont think there is we punched above our weight all because of Rafa. We will see what other managers can do very soon
