D'ya think he'll walk?

[jacapus]

rafa was fully aware of the situation regards the take over
believe me
he is as pissed of with stavely as mike is

why are you calling him MIKE when you know his christian names are FCW

[Zippity]

I think Rafa is a man of integrity and will stay till the end of the season and then pull the plug.

Aye, this. ^^^

Then he should go. Ashley doesn't deserve a manager of his calibre and integrity.

We do, but then we stopped mattering a long time ago.

[HughieG]

depends who wants to buy this mess of a club.

Funny thing is, this club is financially on good terms at the moment, has got a great stadium, dedicated supporters and a great history. I'm not so sure that the club is in a mess in of itself rather than MA having us in a current mess because he refuses to look at this as a football club, but wants to run it like a profitable business.

New owners with a bit of ambition could take this club a long, long way. We have all the right conditions and prerequisites for being a Top 7 club or something in that ballpark, we really just need rid of fatty.

[ghostrider]

I'd like to see him walk or be sacked to give us a chance of survival.
The players he's identified in january reek of nonsense.

Get in Koeman and we will do fine.

Lol.

There’s Wilfy talking to himself again it’s better than comedy gold man

[biilyboy]

Anything less than than a win against Burnley combined with failure to bring in some quality players by the end of the month and he will be off.

A hiding off Man City is just about guaranteed.

He won't want another relegation on his CV.

[occult]

Because he's got a glittering CV and is a gentleman, this seems to blind people to the results this season. They're no better than those achieved by the other two promoted clubs and I don't think they've got owners who make big sums available for transfers. I can't help thinking that his true and only home is with big clubs with big spending power because at a cash-strapped club like NUFC he's struggling as much as several other managers who've since been given their P45s. He's fortunate, as I've said elsewhere, that he never gets blamed for results like his predecessors.

[TheBigSausage]

I dont know why people harp on about him walking. With an alleged penalty clause of £6m for him walking he aint gonna quit . Better off waiting to get the bullet or a team to buy out his contract. He will not walk and give the Fat one £6m .. even assuming he could raise the cash.

[occult]

What would be really interesting is if he did walk and results under a new manager did not improve ( quite likely because the fixtures from now on are going to be tougher ) would all those who have blamed Ashley for everything suddenly start blaming the new manager even though he had the same squad as Rafa.
