This guy on RAWK...

[Dhav]

Rushian, does he know something? Been reviewing some of his posts, and it makes very worrying reading

You know that 90 foot banner in support of Rafa?
I was wrong.

It is still needed. Do everything you can to support the man this weekend.

Unfortunately mate rather than manning the barricades Parry is opening the door.

Sad times.

As far as I'm aware Rafa's only ally of the 6 would be Moores. With Foster Gillett possibly more neutral than the others.

So 4.5-1.5 against Rafa.

He's got no hope.

If people think I'm fishing they're clearly deluded over this whole Rafa v Gillett/Hicks/Parry thing. They want him out of the club.

It would have suited them for us to lose to Newcastle and Porto, as then they'd have used the lack of success as an excuse to sack him - as it is they'll hope to force him out by not backing him for this January or next summer. That way they'll save on transfer fees and compensation.

It goes back a lot further than the infamous Rafa press conference. To be honest I think the two Americans were waiting for us to get knocked out of the CL/lose in the league before pushing the fire button. Always easier to sack someone after such an event. Marseille remains must win for his job survival.

Anyone who doesn't think Rafa was within an inch of being sacked is seriously deluded. His position is still up in the air.

Not really - the 3 points is all important to their financial planning. They're hoping to string Rafa along to post-Marseille to ensure we qualify. Then there's a nice gap to the knock-out rounds to appoint another manager.

Obviously the bottom two were from before Marseille, but the top two are from today. I don't know if he has any contacts or sources, or where his info is from, but he certainly seems to be forceful about it, and leaves no room for doubt.

Big-note IMO mate. Rafa may well have been close to the exit a couple of weeks ago but it would be a crazy person that would be rid of him now.

Rushian is a highly, highly respected poster on RAWK. Think he actually owns the site too.

His info will be right on the money.

If you read between the lines, it states that money won't be available and that Rafa's stance to reinforce the team is still there and he won't back down. Meaning, both camps will stay on their positions.

Judging by Rafa's latest comments, it's clear the issue isn't resolved at all.

[Radar]

I really haven't been keeping up with this but why are they trying to get rid of Rafa? Who could they bring in to replace him? Does Parry need a crowbar to get his nose out of the new owners arse's?

[sean_lfc]

Oh ****, Rafa's getting sacked, we're all doomed, the Amex will sign up a proven winner, we're all doomed, we're all doomed, I need to vent my frustration, ****ing Americans, bloody Parry, ****ing politics, argh, we're doomed, we're doomed. Rushian says so, so do many others, we're doomed, we're doomed we're doomed. I'm just deluded, ...to never have even brought the present into the equation, should've read much more between the lines, I'm a stupid supporter, thank **** for proper insiders, we're doomed, we're doomed, we're doomed.

[Nicey]

Unfortunate that this is still carrying on, although this guy does seem legit. Hopefully all will become clear after the Unwashed game ..

Do you need some anti depressants ?

Far from it fredo mate, I'm just anticipating the general-bollocks-replies that will follow. It's the same with pretty much every thread, I think I'm one of the few supporters who just takes it all in and let's the river flow its course, which is pretty much the main reason for my posting so little on footballing matters and other matters in general.

Even when we've thumped the opposition 4-0, 8-0, whatever, who cares, there's always that darkness and evil catastrophe waiting around the corner. It's the way humans are programmed nowadays and it won't change (however I'm at the forefront of the revolution of changing it, that's a totally different story though and one which I won't get into, certainly not on an internet forum).

Just look at the 'Great interview with Rafa' thread, always something to nitpick out of a positive vibe situation, it bores the **** out of me.

Life's good, Liverpool FC is brilliant so is Rafa. The universe will continue its course and so will we, I guess it's just the way it is, especially with supporters of a football team, I'm not exactly expecting philosopher style reaction from everyone, otherwise we'd be supporting the UK curling team or some ****.

Anyways, I'm back into my hole now, enough people will read this and think 'He's off his rocket' or 'haha, give me your dealer's number' or whatever the hell, I don't care. I have confidence in this team, the whole 'sack rafa' saga, the whole doom and gloom, it's water off a duck's back in my case.

As I said earlier, I let the river flow its course, I'm very philosophical about everything that concerns this club, just because I have an opinion on things I don't try to enforce it on anyone and prove a point, all the time, it's time-consuming, energy-consuming and soul-consuming. I leave all these things to the others who have more personal need for a miniscular diatribe within the circles of very earthly humanoidic realms.

With these words, I peace out and wish you all the best, lots of positive vibes, good energy and muchos love.

He's off his rocket

[Shaggy]

Rushian may well be respected and have decent sources, but coming out with things like "he's got no hope" is.....well, it's a load of ****ing bollocks isn't it.

Yes he has got a hope. How about we win the ****ing league? Gonna sack him then?

[Armchairkopite]

We need another massive Rafa day on Sunday. These Americans need to now that we will persist in our campaign to keep our manager until he gets a new contract, Wheres the online petition?

Time to rally again, c'mon you reds.
