Fugazi Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 What's worst is that Douglas didnt give any reason for that article, basically saying it wont be done before the end of Rafas contract. The other thing is that the NE journalists are putting emphasis on Rafa, as if his situation is more important than a takeover. If a takeover happens, I couldn't give a flying f*** about Rafas contract TBH. A takeover IS everything to the future of this club. Its definitely takeover or bust for me. Benitez staying with Ashley changes nothing for the direction of the club other than reapplying the plaster on the axe wound. Rafa staying with either owner or bust for me. The club will drop down the leagues like Sunderland otherwise. The takeover is the absolute most important thing by an absolute mile. We have had 12 years of the club being totally devoid of basic investment and improvement. No person manager or player is more important than the future of the club. How can you know that when you have absolutely no idea what the new owners will be like The man that can offer Newcastle the most guaranteed security for the future of this football club is Rafa Benitez. The other thing is that the NE journalists are putting emphasis on Rafa, as if his situation is more important than a takeover. If people don’t start to realise that they sure as hell will find that out. If a takeover happens, I couldn't give a flying f*** about Rafas contract TBH. A takeover IS everything to the future of this club. Enjoy Tim Sherwood and dropping down to League 1 then. You think the new owners are going to hire Tim Sherwood? The stupidity amazes me The other thing is that the NE journalists are putting emphasis on Rafa, as if his situation is more important than a takeover.

A takeover IS everything to the future of this club. A lot of our fans are in for a reality check. The same ones that wanted Sir Bobby out for 3rd, 4th, 5th probably Have we really not realised managers like Sir Bobby and Rafa Benitez only come round once in a blue moon have we really not realised that yet? So you'd rather Ashley stayed if it meant Rafa did too? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rafa Benitez is not bigger than the club, however much I love him. Hes worked wonders but ultimately hes hit the ceiling of what this club will let him do. I want a takeover and the fat cunt gone. Even if that means losing Rafa but if your happy playing relegation football every year, good for you. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kasper Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 Seems like we've already established that every journalist talking about another buyer is pretty much inventing it just to be negative. Or in one case just hates them. So Caulkin is straight up lying when he says he knows who they are? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if that means losing Rafa but if your happy playing midtable every year, good for you. Corrected it for you We’ve had the same average position and points as £100million spending West Ham in the last 2 seasons since promotion. Only Rafa and Wolves have finished in the Top 10 of the last 6 promoted teams since we got promoted. 4 out of 6 of them have all finished bottom 5.(Fulham, Cardiff, Huddersfield, Brighton) And 3 of the 6 have been relegated since we were promoted. We’re very lucky to be in such solid positions since promotion. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

geordiedean Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 No one person is bigger than the club. No matter how much we love Rafa. As much as Rafa is key atm I do agree with this.
