it's funny that HR is suddenly a 'crook' to any team's fans that he's left- despite any success he brought them, but is a messiah type figure when he's incumbent.


I'm a spurs fan and at the moment he's a flawed messiah, with potential to become a 'crook' when he fucks us off for the england job.

They may as well have also said 'Rafa may have drank a bottle of whiskey for his breakfast' - absolutely no quotes. The Telegraph might dress it up a bit but still no quotes from anyone at Anfield let alone Rafa. They could easily have finished story with, 'it is believed in some quarters that Ferguson was enraged when he may have heard Rooney had broken a toe nail and the FA may have shuffled him back to Old Trafford a.s.a.p. before being engulfed by another political storm with Ferguson'.
I guess they do it at every Club when they can smell blood - I am sure Spurs, Arsenal fans for instance also feel there is sometimes a vendetta against them as well. Best way to deal with it is like Ferguson and just ban the journalists who don't follow the party line from the news conferences or even particular newspapers which he has done in the past.

The only thing Rafa owes that chump is a drop kick :)


FA weren't interested in Warnock - wouldn't have made any headlines. If anything they only gave Rafa a slap on the wrists, besides the fact he should never have been charged, because it means they don't have to take the hardline on Ferguson and can thus avoid the fallout from all his cronies in the media.

Your loyalty to rafa amazes me anna. You are definately old school. How badly would he have to perform for liverpool fans not to support him.

Firstly, I notice that united fans are still as obsessed as ever. First post back after 2 weeks away and they can't even mention their own team.


MM - Rafa has one hand tied behind his back. Stop believing what SSN and the papers tell you.


We have had a ridiculous amount of bad luck with injuries this season. Gerrard, Torres probably needs a hernia op, Carra and Skrtel smashed their heads together on the first day of the season, Kelly, Agger, Riera, El Zhar, Aurelio,Dossena, Cavalieri, N'Gog, Johnson, Aquilani comes back and gets a virus.


So yeah, we should sack our manager......

Not to mention the fact he's hardly competing on a level playing field. Rafa's net spend over the past 2 seasons is ?2.5 million. ?2.5 million?! He has spent on average ?20 million a season since he has been here and has totally reshaped the team. Not bad considering our squad now contains Torres, Mascherano, Benayoun, Reina, Skrtel, Johnson to name just a few.


Our owners spent more in expenses than what they did on a single player last season. If they continue to place debt on our club, losing games at the start of the season will become the least of our worries.

    • He seemed to me to be fully immersed in the Jeremy Corbyn ethos of the Labour Party. I dint think that (and self describing as a Marxist) would have helped much when Labour was changed under Starmer. There was a purge of people as far left as him that he was lucky to survive once in my opinion.   Stuff like this heavy endorsement of Momentum and Corbyn. It doesn't wash with a party that is in actual government.   https://labourlist.org/2020/04/forward-momentum-weve-launched-to-change-it-from-the-bottom-up/
    • I perceive the problem.simply as spending too much without first shoring up the economy.  If the government had reduced borrowing,  and as much as most hate the idea, reduced government deiartment spending (so called austerity) and not bowed to union pressures for pay rises, then encouraged businesses to grow, extra cash would have entered the coffers and at a later stage when the economy was in a stronger position rises in NI or taxes would have a lesser impact, but instead Reeves turned that on its head by increasing ni which has killed growth, increased prices and shimmied the economy.  What's worse is that the perceived 20 billion black hole has increased to 30 billion in a year. Is there a risk that after 5 years it could be as high as 70 billion ???     
    • That petition is bananas.   If you want a youth centre there pay the landlord the same rent a Londis would and build it yourself or shut the f**k up to be honest. Wasting our MPs time with this trivial nonsense is appalling. If your kids are still out at 1am on a school night you've got bigger problems than vapes and booze and hot sausage rolls.
