    rafa has to go

    i see gayle was good enough for nearly 70 minutes and murphy for nearly 80 but were no deaths door last week

    shelvey wouldnt have played this game from the start in my eyes after last weeks performance

    but why does rafa wait to nearly 70 minutes before making a change at 2-0 down

    we will not stay up sitting back

    does he not realsie anything from games like this and manure are bonus points

    sitting back and inviting one of thebest attacking sides to come at you when we all know they are suspect at the back wont win games like this

    the rumours of supposed muscle strains a nd tiredness were obviusly put out to protect rafa

    we need to be brave like palace and swansea and go for it

    and if that means a new manager
    so be it

    this one wont stick around if he takes us down again

    you would have thought when he took us down last time that what we need is points and goals

    at least go down fighting
    not waving the white flag

    to be fare i have been the same for a long time jammy
    i even blamed him last week

    and i dont think we can gamble that his negative tactics will keep us up

    take the manure win away and we would all be really dissapointed with the performances and the negative tactics

    we wont stay up being negative
    we have to win games
    it wont come down to goal differance

    it will be decided on points

    scosers manure arsenal spuds chelsea are all bonus games

    go at them

    they havent got anything to play for

    we have

    our survival

    i worry he didnt keep us up last time with these tactics
    and i worry he wont this time
    i hope im wrong

    we are lucky wsest brom are so bad

    I agree with this.

    The majority opinion is that Rafa is brilliant because we only lost 0-2. Maybe next game we will lose 0-1 so he will be even more brilliant.

    As I've said numerous times before, he must be judged the same way as all clubs and fans judge their managers and the same way as all our past managers have been judged. We can take into account mitigating factors such as low player spend, for sure, but that's no excuse for not trying to win games and trying to be clever like packing your defence as against Man City and Liverpool. We beat Man U. Let's give it a go and, if we go down, better with a bang than with a whimper.

    The man is pure class and given the right investment could take this club where KK and Sir Bobby had it

    Only a mackem would think otherwise

    If you attacked us, you would have played right into our hands. Then Instead of moaning about not having a go at us after a 2-0 defeat, you'd have been moaning about getting hammered 5 or 6-0 and probably calling Rafa naive for setting you up to play so open against us. Plus, your GD would probably would have looked a whole lot worse this morning as well.
