2021/22 Rafael Benitez

[Terrarian]

I push my fingers into my eyes,
It's the only thing, that slowly stops the ache,
But it's made of all the things I had to take,
Jesus it never ends,
It puts its way inside,
If the pain goes on BENITEZ is not gonna make it...

A win today taking us up to mid-table will settle matters right down in this thread. I'd have thought.

What would a defeat do David ?

 

[Dougie]

If we had invested when the Premier League started, not been terrible for the last 30 years we could have won more as well. Ifs, buts and maybes cannot be added in to our titles. The stats are the stats sadly.

Yeah I agree. We will never know what could of happened.

You know what he wanted to do here, right?

Take one pot of tension stew, pick up a Benitez shaped spoon, give it a good stir...

I dream of the days of 14th place. The pinnacle of football.

It's not so bad. 14th out of 92 league clubs y'know?

A man famously without prejudice.

Lying to yourself about how big/good we are is exactly why we're so crap. Some people are deluding themselves with tales of the past.

Yeah we've been mainly crap for the last 35 years. Still though it's a grand old club, that's rich in history and tradition. We probably should have seen more success over the years, than what we've had. But the vast majority of clubs in England, would love to have achieved what we have imo. Clubs like Sheffield Wednesday and Nottingham Forest, would gladly swap positions with us.

Sadly Dave it won't, that is why he was such a poor choice of manager. He will only ever be 2 defeats from a lot of our fanbase calling for his head.

 

[Eggsyblueskin]

Feels like a 0-0 today.
Or at least a low score draw.
Just enough to give us hope,
But not enough to dispel the demons of despair,
Or the spectre of relegation,
That currently perch upon our shoulders.

I like the way how our manager playing the games with accountability, he managed to get Brands fired , managed to get full control of transfer policy and now if things continue not to developing on the way how we want he already slowly started to POINT fingers to our board , they are brining the players , they are looking into the signings , not a word or statement like I brought this player or I am in contact with etc, great job , proper team player

The utopian heights of midtable.

Yes, that ought to do it.

 

[Thomasc]

so, anything less than a win today is a total disaster for him isn’t it?
