They were never brilliant under Rafa, though, we’re they? He brought them stagnation. Certainly nothing like the buzz and the good times like we had with Keane. They worshipped Rafa for some obscure reason. There was nothing obscure about the reasons we loved Keano.
He gave us worldwide publicity, he completely transformed our fortunes, and while he walked away under a cloud, he left a great legacy.

The mags have never been anywhere near as low as we are right now, not even close. The media build their fans up as the most genuinely long-suffering in the entire league, which is so laughable it’s ridiculous. What they are is an entitled bunch who think that they should be the best team on the planet, and with that much conceit comes great disappointment.

They are not long suffering because they keep getting shafted, or there’s no investment, or because they are just plain unlucky. They are disappointed because they have expectations and demands which are unreasonable, whereas other fans may have ambitions and hopes that are unrealistic. That’s the difference between them and us.

We’re nothing like the Mags at all, and this situation is nothing like their obsession with Rafa. Some of our fans may be like the Mags, and some Mags may be realistic like us. Of course there’s a crossover. On the whole, though, no one is as entitled and unreasonable as the Mags.

You‘re a top, top poster, Janey, but I disagree totally with you on this.

How people are getting so excited about a 39 year old striker and a has been who hasn't managed in donkeys. It's baffling. We need a proper manager not a shock jock pundit who hasn't done anything to warrant being anywhere near the job

I’m with you mate. However, I fear we are the silent minority.

They worshipped him because he was the first manager to be outspoken against Ashley, which he does every club to be fair, blames every fucker but him self.

It’s not even a comparison us wanting him back to them always wanting him back. I can’t believe it’s even a discussion.

I know where we were, I know where he took us, it was fab

But that doesn’t make it different, its really not.

Nobody wants to laugh at the cult of Rafa and the Mag love in of him more than me, but if tonight, they were on the verge of announcing him as their new manager, truthfully what would you be saying.

Personally, I wouldn't give two fucks. Wouldn't give half of one. Who really gives a shit what anyone says, let alone that pack of deluded fuckstones?
