So wouldn't Rafa just leave then?

Why would a man like him stay to face that?

Loaded or not,  there's not many would walk away from £16million ...... even if they could afford to. Seriously would you ?

I've never called the manager any names, and very few of the people who think we need a change have...

  ... Mick... abuse doesn't mean just name calling... it includes ridiculous accusations as well...

"Ridiculous accusations"? I'll tell you what's ridiculous when it comes to the Benitez discussions. It's ridiculous when whenever we win a match it's down to manegerial genius, but whenever we lose one it's down to the owners. It's ridiculous that we can finish seventh in the league just above Everton and it's down to the owners. It's ridiculous when we get beat at Home by Reading in the FA Cup and some people come on here and talk about transfer spend. It's ridiculous that people bleat about transfer spend when we've outspent Man Utd and Arsenal since Benitez has been manager. It's ridiculous when we sign two 20 million pound footballers who don't get in the team and people say it isn't the managers fault. It's ridiculous that we sign a striker for 20 million quid, sell him for 12 and people say we lost 1 million. It's ridiculous that we sign a 20 million pound midfielder but because the initial downpayment was 5 million, that's the only figure people want to include. It's ridiculous that people used to refer to the seven years it took Ferguson to win the title at Man Utd, but now they don't mention it anymore. It's ridiculous that people try and pretend that pre season games are irrelevent, that players decide on the spur of the moment who is taking set pieces, that Benitez is an inspiring man manager. It's ridiculous that any former player, however much of a legend he may be, is called absolutely all sorts if he doesn't buy into the Rafa Krishna sect. It's ridiculous also that if you don't buy in your not a real fan, but if you do and you have a street party that we made seventh, you are. It's ridiculous that the manager can't see that the Lucas/Masherano axis is doomed to failure ("so you know better than Rafa then?" ANSWER on this subject yes I do obviously), and it's ridiculous that people try and defend such incompetence.   

I have never known in my life a subject be a catalyst for so many absolutely ridiculous excuses as the Benitez tenure at Anfield. If it's not beachalls, it's refs, or the owners or the media or fecking Parry.

There is much ridiculousness in the Benitez debate, hence why I don't really bother any more. Some people would deny the sky is bluwe on a sunny day if it served their ends, it's fecking ridiculous alright, as is being called a c... and not a real fan and being told to feck off by someone who's bought in.

Oh for sure... yet it is NOT a ridiculous accusation when the manager is accused of being an unambitious yes-man who keeps his job because he suits the money-men... 

you can't keep a straight face and say that Benitez has not been blamed on here for more than his due alot of times...

Soz Saint... anno we are all upset, the plight of the club is truly bleak and we have had  very poor season of the back of an excellent one last season, league-wise...

.. But I just don't accept that Rafa is money motivated, he has secured the spine of the club, he's told the world ( to his onw detriment with the owners) the cr.ap the club is in and he truly loves this club and 'us'.. he is a broken man, look at him, his pride and reputation are at stake - I don't accept he's lost the dressing room - but the cluib is on crisis and you just can't ignore the impact of that on all.. look at what is doing to us, imaging managing under such a cloud 

[maguskwt]

club's been sold?
