Apart from the so called 'getting the club & fans' I wonder what the adoration of Benitez was all about ...
... It couldn't have been the football, that was pretty dreadful.

Because he'd won stuff. Years ago. Elsewhere.
Reflecting in that glow, diverted them from the fact he won them relegation, then promotion the following year after spending an obscene amount.
Ashley In!!

So basically he knew he had to leave because he didn't get more money for finishing 10th? That's what he's saying when you cut through all the superfluous stuff?

But but but, Rafa wanted to play free flowing football.............with 8 at the back.
Well they sacked Robson and then beatified him. They just fastracked the canonisation of St Rafa.

Last season, Benitez set them up against Arsenal to keep the score down. They lost 2-1 and he was a genius.
This season, Bruce set them up against Arsenal to keep the score down. They lost 1-0 and he's clueless.

I know He'll probably keep them up though and they wanted to build a statue for Rafa for achieving that.

Thanks for the positive feedback fella. Something of a rarity on this board of late. I thought we all followed SAFC on here apart from some obvs. Cheers M8Y, enjoy game tonight/satda.
No, No, No, you cannot possibly be on the right track. Cos, according to some on this board I’m a “dirty black n white bastard”
Never mind, as I have done and always will do : HTL with three A’s n FTM aka FOYS ! Cheers fella.

Do you lot even know what you’re protesting about at this stage?

They have good intentions but they never learn that it has no effect, some folk just want to feel good by stamping their feet, I won’t judge them, Ashley can do some stupid things and if he’s not enjoying it should just get some cash and fuck off, but it’s his and can do what he wants with us, just as we can decide to stop giving him my money, it’s about personal opinion and that’s mine especially when Steve Bruce has rocked up but I stopped my DD after Rafa left, I liked the bloke but didn’t worship him.Yes they protest at Ashley and his snidely approach to the good things and the future, undoubtedly runs a tight ship , fair enough, he never builds on something good.
I was talking to you and Edwards a few weeks ago about one of the posters on here. Do you know who it is????
No such thing as a dirty black and white mate, we’re all saints.

Fair do's mate good on you. The "Magpie Group" et al can shout at shops, walk in/walk out and boycoutt all they like, it won't make a scrap of difference. You haven't made a song and dance about it and just stopped paying money to a regime you do not agree with if more of you lot did the same it would hurt Ashley where it hurts him most - the pocket.

I saw the pictures. Do they actually think it is going to achieve anything or is it more nonsensical attention seeking to try and show how passionate they are

You could just imagine Ashley watching the footage of that and instantly drop his asking price by 200 millionI saw the pictures. Do they actually think it is going to achieve anything or is it more nonsensical attention seeking to try and show how passionate they are
Do they have good intentions though or is it purely attention seeking?
Ashley couldn’t have possibly kept Benítez despite his pathetic attempts to curry favour with the fans after he dashed for the cash.
He’s then went and broke your transfer record twice in last 6 months.
You’s don’t have a prayer of breaching the top 6 so you are in same boat as everyone outside of it and i don’t see their fans making a nuisance of themselves outside shops or stalking owners when out for a meal.
Days of competing with big boys are long since gone. It seems you lot are struggling to realise it.
