Reply With QuoteIīve voted for Rafa and Ashley to stay because:
1. If Rafa stays itīs because Ashley has given him enough to work with
2. Thereīs no guarantee a new owner will be better than Ashley (although there is a strong likelihood, I know)

Sorry, Mick-can't give a straight answer. I think if Ashley stays, Rafa goes. There's absolutely nothing to suggest he's interested in moving the club forward and if he thinks Rafa will want to stay just to keep our heads above water then he'll get a nasty shock.
On the other hand, if Ashley goes, chances are that it's because Staveley and co have bought the club which, Rafa being their man, means he's staying.
But, of course, you know all that, ya wee tinker!

I think this vote is basically: do you love Rafa more than you hate Ashley!!

no agenda really (on my behalf) but I guess you're right for whoever thought it up. like I said, I read it o Twitter and couldn't decide, so i.thought I'd get you lot to help me out.
it's definitely a tricky one!

Iv'e gone with the first one,as long as Raffa stays I'm happy..
Anything can happen after that..Takeovers/accidents/heart attacks happen a lot to fat people..
Before the PC lot get their backs up...
I really really mean it..I despise the FCB

Very very very tough call.
I think Rafa is a brilliant manager and I want him for those 10 years. However I think the club needs a break from Ashley more than 1 manager.
However as Zip said, i think if Ashley stays and doesn't meet what Rafa wants to take us forward he'll be gone anyway. So Ashley stays, Rafa leaves i reckon is the more likely scenario sadly.

Cant see the poll, on the phone. Guessing what it is forgive me if I get it wrong.
I love Rafa....but for the good of the club's future Ashley out whatever the price. There is no future otherwise. 11 years gents.
