Does Rafa Benitez get criticism from Newcastle fans?

[Ceverton]

He started with the best squad in the championship, spent £55m and are stumbling over the line to finish behind Brighton

 

[BigPete]

Few of my pals aren't happy with him today and neither are fans on BBC Newcastle

 

[Oli Wagkz]

They're gonna finish 2nd in a one horse race.

If Pardew was doing the same he'd be lambasted and rightly so.

 

[Maravilla]

Seems to be getting quite a lot of stick after today's result

 

[cluffy]

Three callers in a row slagging him on Radio Mag
they're not keen on Diame and Lascelles either

 

[jcrossan]

Every manager eventually gets stick. All a matter of how long they can keep it at bay...look at Wenger

 

[Stormo]

Takes them down then has them finishing in their lowest position for 25yr

Messiah.

 

[Sima]

Yes, it was a Pardew-esque setup today, especially with the full back substitution and taking your best winger off to have two target men in the middle.

Apparently, because Villa spent money, Benitez is exempt from criticism

Dawnie won't be on look north tonight

They have Preston Cardiff and Barnsley. Three teams with nowt to play for.

The Mags will get promoted but the fact Brighton won the leagueand they're stuttering makes it far less of an achievement.

Pardew spent less than £20m in his first full season and finished 5th in the premier league followed by one of their most successful European campaigns - hated

Benitez relegates them despite the easiest run in possible and then spends £60m and might just scrape promotion - loved

thought this waiscoat stuff was just bantz - so he was actually wearing one? I'm picturing Simon Callow in Four WEddings - kind of tartan one

Three teams with no pressure on them!
