Hicks: Rafa's in clear

[Dhav]

But he won't have anything to answer for.

He can claim the story was factual at the time and that he would've been wrong not to publish it.

And lets be honest here, I bet a few reds bought the NOTW, so they made some ****in coin out of it. Result for them.

It was all one big ****efest from start to finish. Quite a few people here embarrassed themselves with hysterical xenophobic rantings.

Logging on here and reading some of the posts literally made me cringe. Shameful.

Hopefully for some it's lesson learned.

Disagree. I have no doubts there were some very serious goings on at the club last week, in which the owners did not cover themselves in glory at all, and I'm still not convinced it's completely over either.

I keep telling people, Bascome is nothing but a scally ****.

More than ever his credibility has now sunk to an all time low. Embarrassing journalism....and to make matters worse didn't Rashid say that Bascombe personally emailed him and fed him some more BS regarding the situation?

Any journalist who feels the need to email an internet poster with the worst reputaion of all others must have a screw loose.

I would say sure it got mental but for me it all started with one ill advised statement, The xenophobic angle has more to do with business and the idea of two American business men are here to make a quick buck, it does not help also that Hicks in mates with that Cunt Bush Jnr.

Well I know him and he is far from a scally. You may not agree with what he writes but he isn't a scally ****.

Well Steve says he is, so there.

This poster with the worst reputation of all others, do you believe him when he says bascombe e-mailed him? I'd be a little bit sceptical myself.

I know what you're saying but there's a possibility that it may have happened and if it did, then Bascombe is a joke.

Pun intended?

Who knows what really happened?

G&H could have leaked the info as a way to get the spotlight off their problems to finance the new stadium but didn't had any real intent to sack Rafa.

For example, some of the fans will now probably be happy with a cheaper design if it means that Rafa stays.

If we keep winning and keep banging them in then they will have to back him.

Hope so, but i dont trust hicks.

Rafa's job security should be decided by results first.

And nothing else ever.

Agreed

Smoke and mirrors indeed ... wish we would all just concentrate on the football, which seems to be the order of the day more and more .. thank **** ..

For awhile there it seemed that large proportion of the community were interested in everything but the football.

[Jazzmaster]

The most frightening thing about the whole affair is that it is very obvious that an awful lot of people out there actually believe what they read in the tabloids. Scary.
