Posted: Thu Mar 16, 2006 2:36 pmHeard it being said that we've secured 'funds' from somewhere-where exactly seems to be a little vague but nonetheless the rumours abound.
Seems also that Rafa was waiting on only that to take things forward.
Happy days ahead so it seems

This time yesterday there's speculation about the Manager and the bookies are offering windfall odds on a Liverpool striker actually a goal!
great news on the contract front and i think Moores and Parry deserve a lot of credit (they don't always get it) should Rafa sign an extension which effectively tells Madrid to p.iss off.

Posted: Thu Mar 16, 2006 4:20 pmRafael Benitez today delivered the news all Liverpool supporters wanted to hear when he announced that he's definitely staying at Anfield.
Speculation last week hinted that the Liverpool boss could be tempted by the offer of a managerial position at either Inter Milan or Real Madrid. On Wednesday, the speculation came full circle when rumours began to emerge in Spain that the Reds chief had already put pen to paper on a new deal tying him to the club until 2010.
Today however, Benitez insisted that while he hasn't yet signed any new deal at Anfield, he definitely won't be going anywhere.
"It's clear that I'm staying at Liverpool," Rafa told liverpoolfc.tv. "I want to thank the fans, the chief executive and the board for their support. I'm happy here and I'm staying.
"I am very happy here and I want to win a lot more trophies with Liverpool. My relationship with the fans and the people at the club is fantastic.
"We will try to finish second this season then look to try and win the Premiership next season. It won't be easy but we will try to sign the best players and continue to work hard with a clear idea of winning more trophies.
"The board have the same ideas as me and I haven't made any demands. They know we need to improve and we will continue to work hard. Can we win the Premiership next season? Well, it depends on Chelsea, Manchester United, Arsenal and maybe Tottenham but we will try.
"When I decided to come to Liverpool I knew it was a big club, one of the biggest in the world that was capable of fighting for trophies."

Posted: Thu Mar 16, 2006 5:30 pmNow give rafa the cash and watch us go 
Posted: Thu Mar 16, 2006 5:40 pmA note to Ciggy: Next time you see on Rafa's face he wants to leave, ask me first, I told you he must be delighted in Liverpool. 
On a side note, I don't know why, perhaps due to some of the english media being
, I think some of our fans have underrated the name of Liverpool in Europe. For a Spanish coach Madrid and Barcelona are the desired ones, and Valencia, Depor, would be desired as well, but less than that. Coaching Liverpool F.C, is like coachiong Madrid of Barcelona, it's more important than the latter ones, and it's gives more relevance in Spain tryumphing in England that in Spain. Look Luis Garcia, he has reached Spanish Squad mainly because he's in Liverpool. Xabi Prieto is making great matches, but he'll only reach the spanish squad if he insists in that good games for 4 seasons, OR, makes it to a great club like Liverpool. Same thing happened to Alonso.
Plus, the fact that in England managers have more power than in Spain (In Spain, they suggest the signing ups at best, and then the board grants that or not) makes of Liverpool an ideal team for Rafa.
The crowd is important too, when we have a problems, the crowd maintains faithful to the team, in Spain 2 games lost in Madrid would provoke CRISIS headlines in the newspapers. Let's see if I can translate an article of J.B. TOshack about his times in Madrid, it says it all about how the press work there.
In a nutshell, I expected Rafa to stay, and that's what has happened.
