Rafa Benitez Leaves Liverpool

[Redspin]

NewsCorp I believe own both Sky and the Sun and you know how the Sun loves us!
Filthy *******s!

In fact NewsCorp only owns 39% of Sky TV, although indeed the biggest shareholder it certainly isn't the owner

he wasnt given enough money to do the job.

ok i will give you 5p to build me a cutting edge modern house with a pool. you have 5 years to do it.

now i want no excuses as you have been given money and time and those are facts.

except there is a bit more to it than that isnt there. however you wont see it which makes you a wum.

The hypocritical way this is played out in the press drives me insane.

Rafa - a cold, distant ****** who is disliked by his players because he is not their friend. A man so unattached he doesn't even celebrate goals. "Lighten up man, we want to see you smile!" © Andy Gray.

Capello - lauded to the heavens for his ruthless, serious and no-nonsense approach. You hear players like Lampard and others praising him for it, the press carry it on and eulogise about Capello's winning mentality..."he's no time for an old pals act unlike Steve 'Wazza/Stevie G' McClaren. He's so focused on winning that he's no time to be celebrating goals, he's focused on making sure the game is won.

Rafa and Capello are cut from the same cloth. Yet one's a genius and the other is useless.

it is an owner and certainly controls it who is chairman of sky? a certain James Murdoch. he is also chairman and ceo of news international europe.

It would be appreciated if people could argue their points without resorting to insults.

I hear what you're saying but there's a poster on here who's deluded

Pot, kettle, black, all because I don't agree with your view point.

As a majority then they have the biggest say - good use of Wikipedia!

I don't disagree with you But it's no reason for people to pull out the old "**** off back to RedCafe" line amongst others.

I'll give you a razor instead.

If they own 39% that's not a majority?

[Craig_H]

I give up, I am trying to look at the possible positive's this could produce, instead of wanting the slash my wrist like the majority of people on here.

Rafa was given 6 years and given money to spend. He spent more than he made and he failed to win the league, even with Gerrard at his peak, those are the facts.

Do you honestly think it's realistic to take over a side that finished 4th, only spend £13m per season (when Chelsea and the mancs are spending an absolute tonne) and take that side from 4th to 1st in those circumstances?

I'll give you a razor instead.

how nice of you i had my shave this morning. and have quite a few spare blades. as long as it a gillette fushion power refil i will gladly accept they are expensive.

i am not slitting my wrists nor have i indicated that i am.

you clearly ignore the facts and are a wum.
