Still don't get this notion that games are getting called off shortly after teams are playing games, especially over the Christmas period! Seems quite backwards, fine to play today but everything has changed by Friday.
I will say though, I have never known a manager to get such a repreival as benitez has. Given the foxes , Newcastle , burnely were key games, if we had lost all them then he would be gone by now. Or at the very least have good justification to sack him. He has literally saved his own backside by not playing them, especially if norwich ends up next (one of his only wins since this run began).
