Rafael Benitez.

[Grinch]

Its newcastle we're talking about. He could be gone soon if this sort of form continues.

[Grinch]

That's more like it.

 

Newcastle 4-1 Reading

[Biscao]

A famous win for Newcastle!

[Jairzinho]

[Tony Moanero]

Watcha gonna do when Rafamania runs wild on you, brother?

[Total Longo]

Specialist in failure

 

 

Nailed on for relegation - again

 

 

[Tony Moanero]

Derby 0-2 Newcastle

[njackets]

QPR 0-6 Newcastle

 

Fucking hell! Looks like he's got this Championship lark sussed already.

[Lee909]

Doesn't he know you need a British manager to get out the Championship. A Colin Wanker if you will,they know the fight you need in the players to get promotion

[Pureblood]

Perhaps he'll get his hands on the real Championship trophy.

 

There's some very decent fingerprints on that auld mug.

[johnsusername]

I'd love him to steamroller the championship.

[Grinch]

Tis great, just a shame its Mike Ashley's newcastle.

[Jairzinho]

When was the last time Newcastle won a trophy? The 1950s?

 

Could see them winning one of the two domestic cups within a season or two.

[njackets]

Rafa in the Championship is fucking crazy when you think about it, I'd expect a few more of these score lines once he gets his shit together and gets his team playing the way he wants.

 

Only thing that I can remotely compare this to is when Batistuta stayed with Fiorentina when they went down, both massively, massively over qualified to be second tier.

Jairzinho, negged by accident.

Cunt rep.

Class is telling, isn't it?

[Hades]

One for TK: Newcastle fans invited to training pitch.

Rafa is too good for the Championship. If he can keep a lid on the egos in the dressing room and if Ashley properly supports his manager and allows Rafa the control he needs, they'll piss the Championship and come flying back up.

He was managing ego central less than a season ago, can't be too many ego's in a team playing in the Championship I'd imagine.

 

The biggest problem for him no doubt is keeping a happy relationship with Ashley.

What he has going for him is that the fans, predictably, love him. They realise they've got very lucky to get a manager of his stature. I think Ashley would be very reluctant to act the cunt, knowing the backlash. 

[King Emlyn]

Watched him before shaking hands with the winning manager of a championship clash and the boos of the home crowd ringing in his ears and I genuinely wondered how it had ever come to this.

[Tony Moanero]

Rafamania is running wild, brother.
