owned? What are you 12?

Anyone can dig out a post out from any time period and position it as having an opinion one way or another the majority of us just CBA with how futile an exercise it ultimately is.

99% of GOT must believe DCL is garbage based on one post you dig out years ago when he couldn't score in a brothel.

Newcastle fans over hyped Benitez and worshipped him wrongly like the Blue Geordies did to King Carlo.

That doesn't in any way change the facht that im willing to give Benitez a chance here and now certainly more than 11 games with an injury crisis and no backing in the summer.

It's just weird that you said that Benitez did a worse job than Bruce, whereas now if anyone says that you lose your mind and start talking about random managers for 7 or 8 pages. Did he do a worse job than Bruce? Maybe we should give Bruce a try given you think he's better than Benitez and your well into Benitez as is evidenced by any day's content on this thread?

Im not solely blaming Rafael for this form...BUT we lose the next 2....and its going to get very hard to keep him.

Just have the vision of us being 4-0 down in the Derby, the away section asking Rafael for a wave......and he does.

The rage will be on a new level.

Just hearing about United paying off Ole between 7 and 8m and its costing 10m to get Poch, lets say 17m, this is why Rafael has a very safe job, we cant afford to pay him off and buy out another manager of note. If anyone thinks we have the money to do this why did we only spend 1.7m in the summer? Why did we go for the cheapest manager option in the summer?
The money we have wasted on players is one thing but the money we have wasted on manager turn arounds is criminal. This isnt even sticking up for Rafael but pointing out why we wont be and cant sack him, money, its not there, it was there but Moshiri and Brands wasted it.

How much would relegation cost us?

You're putting 2+2 together and making 5.

Benitez was worshipped whilst Bruce wasnt when ultimately they did a similiar job i.e. midtable finishes.

Thats the hypocrisy I rightfully pointed out and will still point out.

Ancelotti had us 10th & 12th after spending £70 million and was worshipped.

Benitez has us 11th with spending £1.7 million and is heckled as our worst ever manager - thats the hypocrisy I rightfully point out...
 
Wasn't a fan of his appointment. Knew everyone would turn on him. But the main reason we're uncompetitive is FFP. Our squad isn't much better than it was last year and we're crippled with injuries, so I'm not surprised to see where we are in the table. We've been mid table for years now. Sacking Benitez won't achieve much.
