Me neither.I cannot support Rafael if he is appointed
For me the only reason to put Dunc in is if they want to reset a year. Have Dunc in as a care taker for a year, spend almost 0 money and shift or run down the deadwood contracts and hope DF keeps us up, then next summer sell DCL and Rich as they want to go and get a new manager in and have loads of money to spend.Oh dear what?
One win in 4? Is that not a fact?
Subbed a sub and on his last game served up utter muck to a bored Goodison and with a new manager sitting in the stands watching.
He failed.
Its not even his Liverpool past or his ‘small club’ comments that puts me off Rafael - its the fact that he’s proper proper average these days. Newcastle is his level.

**Names Rafael, worked for the darkside over a decade ago, can't have him, despite him being one of the most successful managers available and worked for six other clubs since then, including Inter Milan, Real Madrid, Chelsea, and Napoli.
Crying, just noticed "lives on the Wirral" as one of Rafael's best points
Your missus write this?
Are we just making stuff up now?
Brighton spent considerably more (both in net and gross terms) on transfers under Hughton's two years in the PL than they did under Potter's two years
Hughton (17/18 and 18/19) - Approx £138m gross and £125m net
Potter (19/20 and 20/21) - Approx £93m gross and £67m net
I get you don't rate him mate, but stop making facts up?
Whenever I’ve seen Brighton play they have played good football and done well, so I don’t think he would be the worst and no reason why he shouldn’t be up for debate.
Personally I don’t think he looks a strong enough a character to manage us and his league finishing positions worry me. And not being the worst isn’t the reason to pick someone.
Some of the other reasons I’ve seen for him not being manager are a bit pathetic and the abuse some posters get for suggesting him seem over the top.
I’m not excited about any of the names linked really, the ones from the Premier League especially and don’t watch foreign footy to know about Galtier, Fonseca, Gallardo etc. not going to pretend I do to seem knowledgeable too. Just hope they pull something out the bag and get someone competent that can get us playing good football.
Also it would be nice if we could get someone who can get our players to pass the ball, that might be too much to ask though
Bruce did just as well as Rafael At New castle.It won't be Rafael. If it was, I'd be done. I'd rather have Bruce if we are after crap managers from Newcastle.
Rafael-ball would be as bad as allardyce or carlo-ball.
