You are a complete a*sehole, Andy. I know you're a bit touchy because of some of my previous posts, but your agenda is perfectly clear - you don't need to keep banging the drum. No-o e made you respond to my post, so wind your neck in and f*ck off. There's a good girl.
i'm a bit touchy?? says the one getting all hot under the collar because i've questioned his assumption. this has nothing to do with any previous, lando - i just think that saying that rafael benitez is a better person than any one else on here is ridiculous in the extreme. i don't care who says it.
don't get me wrong, his donations to charity have shown a generous and humane side to his character that was never much in doubt anyway. but lets look at the context. he's given a couple of hundred thousand to charity since his pay off - a fantastic gesture, i'll repeat. but based on his 4 milion annual income and his 6 million payoff it works out at 2% of one year's income. if we discount his payoff and say he's payed two hundred thousand out of just his 4 million annual income then its 5%. its the equivalent of someone on 25,000 a year donating 500 to good causes - a generous gesture, nothing more.
i'm not saying that it doesn't count if you're rich but probably makes it easier. donate 200,000 of million and you still have 3,800,000 left. you don't have to dedicate your whole life to saving and serving others to be on an equal footing with rafa's generosity.
i know you were/are a big fan of the man but don't let that cloud your judgement or make you need to fly off the handle at anyone who questions him. no one makes anyone respond to anyone's posts, but you can't but help respond to something you don't agree with - thats kind of how a forum works, right?
you big tart

Wrong. Rafa didn't want the World to know - the HJCF came forwards themselves.

That money in this cash stretched club would be great but it is in his bank account instead.
Rafa was entitled - by contractual obligation - to £16m. He took a massive loss. I wonder if you'd do the same, you worthless excuse for a "fan"?
No? I didn't think so...

State your case for anyone else on here, then.
I challenge you to find me 1 person on this board outside of the parameters I set whom is better than Rafa.
I see you're ignoring the other charitable work/gestures he's done since he joined the club? A certain centre would be without transport but for him. His wife has done a lot, too.

No? I didn't think so...
For me he didnt deserve any compensation.
Compensation for what ?
He walked into another top job on just as big a salary.
So i am at a loss to explain why he was entitled to anything.
He should be on gardening leave if that's the case until that amount would have been actually paid to him in wages for services to LFC.
