Found myself laughing my head off when Reading equalised before... so it's time I admitted to myself and my internet mates.

I think Rafa is a big fat tit and I want him to fail. He went to Chelsea, instantly becoming a rent boy slut, and now he works for Mike Ashley, literally one of the top ten horrible lizard cunts in this country.

Fuck him, I hope he fails miserably. I wish I didn't feel this way coz I generally like Geordies and wish them no ill will.

See, I fundamentally agree.

Also, I dislike Newcastle fans. They have a massive complex that they're relevant. Kind of like us but without ever being successful
 
Agreed. They also have some of the most ugly looking women I've ever seen.
After a night out in Newcastle you see thing you wish you could unsee.
 
I have fond memories of Rafa's time here and though I acknowledge his blindspots and weaknesses, generally have wished him well since his departure - with the exception of at Chelsea where I simply wished that they would fail without humiliating him.

But I have to admit a guilty pleasure at seeing the Geordies go down and still look out of their depth, despite being a "big club" with "world class manager". It's all a bit LOLZ to me.
 
I have fond and amazing memories which are all down to Rafa, but I couldn't give much of a fuck how he does at Newcastle or elsewhere.

He lost something for me after signing for Chelsea. I don't dislike or hate him. He's just no longer relevant.
 
Remember when Keegan got them briefly to the top? Their chairman immediately started predicting they'd be the dominant club in a European super league (and then a WORLD Super League). They can't help themselves, their egomania only needs a few wins to cause it to explode into view. Even Portsmouth have done more than them in the past fifty years and still they sit there with their great big guts hanging out and expect world domination. And that's just the women.

He should wear his glasses all the time or get contacts. He's gotten into this habit before each game of carefully opening up his case, removing his specs and then putting them on, and taking them back off and carefully placing them back in his case as soon as the final whistle goes. It can't be vanity ('My god, Mr Benitez - you're beautiful!'), and it seems unlikely that he's got a very peculiar form of vision deficiency that makes him able to see everything close up and far away except football games from the technical area, so come on, Rafa, lad, cut it out. It's a neurotic twitch and it's time to stop it. Get yourself fit and healthy, quit that mad club, and go and manage Spain.
 
None of what Rafa's done since will ever erase Istanbul and that whole season. For me it doesn't even come close.

4-4.
Penalty shoot out!
With Rafa the subject, there really is only one winner.

So tough sh1t to all the rafa haters 🙂
 
I don't get the hate for some of our former managers...with the exception of Hodge. While they were here they poured their hearts into the club and did all they could to achieve the success we all crave. Souness made a terrible error of judgement of course but nobody could dispute his love for the club. If I think about the managers in my grown-up lifetime, from Paisley to Klopp, they've all loved the club with the exception of Hodgson. They all valued what it meant to be Liverpool manager and I would have walked over hot coals for all of them during their time in charge.

Yup - well said Big J
 
There was an old English actor, Arthur Lowe, whose wife insisted that, whatever job he was offered, he had to insist that she got a part in it, too, and because she was a really poor actress that meant that he lost out on loads of good projects. Rafa's become the Arthur Lowe of football. Because his family don't want to leave Merseyside, he has to look for jobs like managing Chelski and Newcastle rather than clubs elsewhere in the world that would suit his stature much better. It's great that his wife and kids love the place so much but it's not great for his career at a time when he should have been reaching his peak.

Arthur Lowe also used to have a clause in his contract that any role he took could never, ever involve him not wearing trousers. Sadly I doubt Benitez has any kind of similar clause but it would be good if he did.

For the record I hope Benitez does okay. I don't even find Newcastle that offensive. When they are out of the Premier League they are irrelevant to us, and when they're in the Premier League we tend to beat them anyway.

Well he did manage in Milan and Madrid. Hardly just through the tunnel are they?

Was that the guy who played Captain Mainwaring in Dad's Army? What part did his missus play? Maybe Pike's mum/Wilson's tart?
