Are the Benitez 8 owed an apology?

[4737carlin]

Mate you are disproving your own points here.

At this stage last year I was beginning to worry about a relegation scrap. Separately to that I felt the manager at the time was a poor fit and had made some poor acquisitions in the summer.

This year I am beginning to worry about a relegation scrap BUT critically I feel the current manager is a better fit for the club and has acted far more assuredly in the transfer market, making me optimistic that he'll bring in the right players in January to help us achieve the safety of mid-table.

He is a better fit because he is very likable, but it's a results business, he has to get them, he isn't.
It's why throwing away last night was such a disgusting thing to do, after Saturday at least try to give us something to be positive about.

One thing that could help us this season is I've a lot more trust in Thelwell and Kenwright then I had in Moshiri and Brands, January is massive, but so is this Saturday

Huge respect for @4737carlin. The only one on here with a good conscience and sticking to the cold hard facts

Where's @Death btw? The co-leader of our funky band of 8.

He was perma banned a good while ago, for being a bellend again, after being allowed back from his first perma ban, for surprise surprise being a bellend.

D got banned for persistently annoying AndyC / 90% of the folk who didn't like Benitez. He's alright, still active on other forums.

By that rationale, you will also have wanted Benitez out. It's a results business, he has to get them, he didn't.

Thank goodness we can stop all this bickering now.

When we sacked him yes, it was time to go, but some wanted him gone the day he arrived, which was ridiculous. Fact is we are no better now, its been another wasted 12+ months, we are becoming more and more irrelivant.
Dont forget when Rafael arrived it was before Newcastle got that take over, so thats one more club who have over taken us, Villa with this new manager and investment could easily pass us too, even Brighton are well ahead of us now.
Weve been in rapid decline for 3 years now, Rafael was only around for 6 months

Chico hack your account, mate? Your pot-stirring score this week is way outside historical norms.

I'll admit that I bailed on Benitez relatively late. I think it was late in December before we were so abject that I concluded the man had no clue. You could vault me if you wanted the exact date.

That lot continues to defend FSW. If they wanted forgiveness, they would have to own it and renounce him. I think they're entitled to their opinion, and I don't get bothered by it the way so many of you seem to. It's not like my position of 'just be solid at the back and comfortably up, with an eye to the next two seasons' is popular around here.

You're a very wise man mate.

I've always seen something special and humble in you ?

 

[Yarrgh]

Hmmm...no Anchorman street-fighting .gifs. This forum has truly let me down...AGAIN!

Be the change you want to see.

Almost... spiritual?

 

[FrenchDarrenBent]

Now then, thanks @nsno-chris and @Kev The Rat for that touching and heartfelt apology so we can finally move on to more pressing matters...

@ForeverBlue92
What kind of sectarian 'spiritual' movement are we talking about? Are you into alien-gods, comets, castration and ritual suicide? Or are we just sticking to candles, yoga and fart-sniffing?

Some will never have the good character to hold their hands up and admit they were wrong.

A few month back I joined a spiritual forum and any rare instances of aggro are shot down and said troublemakers encouraged to apologise for the good of the community. Its a shame you dont see it happen more between fellow Blues.

Politics is a big no no on there as it causes too much division when the site/community is all about bringing people together to share their experiences.

100% a sex cult.
