Massive

[bedlington mackem]

“It’s a massive club, a massive city and the support’s massive.”

Rafael Benítez tells Mike Ashley: ‘I want to compete for more than finishing 15th’

does not Ashley know this already ? Ashley is massive too mind ...with a massive ego aswell

 

[Elephant]

He's not wrong like. The support is massive.

Well done @Doberman you've made on to the mag Twitter account that trawls a Sunderland message board 24 hours a day.

@DeludedOf: Our support is massive. But not quite as massive as theirs. The deluded world of RTG on Twitter

Rafa "negotiating" his money through the tongue up the fans arseholes technique as per.

 

[riffraff]

He's an idiot.

He either stays, signs the contract and just deals with it, gets on with his job. Or leaves. This constant menstrual flapping towards Ashley is pathetic.

True.
Real men raise their points once. If they don’t like the answer then they leave.
I had a lot of respect for the feller even after he washed up there but his attempts to push Ashley into a corner publically are embarrassing. If he thinks any of this nonsense is gonna endear him to owners of other clubs then he’s truly an idiot.

It's probably one of the smallest about. Ya can walk across it in 5 minutes.

You're not far off as city centre's go, not much bigger than Bath or Gloucester but population wise it's about average. I do see where you are coming from though, as the average person in Newcastle is that f***ing fat it will make the city seem smaller.

 

[burb]

The obsession on here with Rafa Benitez is massive

Friday night and seething at a Mag

Your life must be f***ing shite, poor lad.

He's brilliant man.

He strokes the fans egos and plays the media like a finely tuned piano so well he gets called a "genius" for playing Pulisball. Whilst getting paid an utter fortune by an owner who needs him as a buffer to the fans who believes success is 'not being relegated'.

Whether he signs a new contract or pisses off to a better deal (like he tried with WHU) everyone up there will still think he's done a fantastic job.

Nee chance you could walk from the RVI to, say, the Pitcher and Piano in five minutes tbf.

He's got the fans eating out of his hands like. Bloke's a stuck record. "I can't compete without 300m"...even though he always spends and is such a great tactician...if he was worth half as much as he thought he'd not be begging for money constantly.

What about roll?

Nah. You’d pick up speed down Grey Street, mind.

hope them roads are clear!

It’s pretty shit to be honest that two blokes who have no affinity with the place are using a north east institution for their own gains.

Thoughtful of you. I’m not usually afforded such courtesy.

Can we talk about The Don and Methvan on another thread please? This is about our World Class manager and our saviour of the high street owner.

 

[RichD]

I'd say he's very much the opposite, he's playing them like a fiddle.
This "miracle if we stay up" nonsense man and they swallow it whole.

He's got the cushiest job in football and even the press go with the poor Rafa having to work under such restrictions crack with Ashley the Bogeyman.

This...you hear them bang on about give him the money to spend. You could also say the same about every other manager outside the top 6 snarl...it's embarrassing

Have a look around mate, you’ll see plenty of people calling their motives into question in amongst all of the arse licking.

Always good to see ex players coming back to support the club they played for.
Does Micky Quinn go to most home games like.

I can see there is the objectivity as you’d expect but in the interests of parity I’m using the same logic that applies to Newcastle fans on here - Judging the majority by the actions of an idiotic few.

 

[martinlumley]

And the money FSW has to pay back if he walks

that clause expired last year, he can just walk away in June. In fact if he doesn't sign a new contract he's out of work shortly, this is Big Mikes game now.

I’m one of those rare few who only hate Newcastle on derby day, the rest of the time I get more pissed off about the state of north east football as a whole. Really, I just wish our rivalry was borne out of us competing for trophies against each other, than competing over shit ownership, attendances and mediocrity on the pitch.
