Rafa Leaves Newcastle

[Nick]

No new contract agreed.

 

Gone

[UniFox21]

Ridiculous for the board to let him leave. 

Obviously I don't know the full story but you'd assume the board wouldn't back or support him so he left.

Without this takeover, their transfer kitty is void, they are broke and Mike Cashley won't invest in the team, I would say they are nailed on to go down.

[MrSpaM]

Just seen their takeover is apparently off too, not sure how reliable that is mind

Poor bastards

Didn't Pearson say he had an offer from a club that no-one would believe.

That'll be Real Madrid .

[Ric Flair]

Ayoze Perez please, make it snappy. Ashley will cash in.

[Suzie the Fox]

What a shit storm, 2 weeks ago they were going to be the new Man City and now are left with no manager and the Moron that is Mike Ashley, still their owner. What a sorry state of affairs.

 

Feel bad for the Toon faithful, and makes you appreciate how good we currently have it.

Sunderland rejoices.

He's a very underrated player. Would be perfect to cover up front or play out wide.

Had a decent spell last season but overall bang average. For the price Newcastle would probably demand, I'd steer clear.

Perez has scored 7, 6, 8 and 12 in his four Premier League years. Would love that output from one of our wingers. 

[Walshy5]

Claude Puel is out of work. He's qualiteeeeeeeeeeeee

Every season he scores around 8-10 goals, it's decent for a support striker/winger in a very crap low scoring team. Very much like Josh King but without all the peno's.

[VLC86]

Those snubbing Perez need to remember Iheanacho is our current option.

He's really not, my Toon supporting mate can't stand him. Although we made him look world class at our place last season haha.

Goals and assists paint a different picture in a shit ball of a team when it comes to scoring goals. I'd have him here.

If we go for anyone at Newcastle it should be Lascelles especially if Maguire goes to Man City

More likely Rafa asked for an unacceptable amount of money to continue as manager. Wasn't he already on £12m a year?

[Wymsey]

Reckon Chris Hughton will go there.

Past links with the club.

 

Edit: Just read the BBC article about him set to leave, and this banner was mentioned.

Can't remember it being shown at the game despite being there, but it's an excellent and powerful message at the time (and still is).
