Rafa Watch

[The Birdman]

Rafa met NESV last week????

Is anyone a member on RAWK??
A few rumours on Twitter saying that a poster called Shankleyboy has posted that there has been a meeting, a phone call between Rafa and Comolli and a further meeting scheduled for this week.

I stress this is a rumour posted on another forum but couldn't find it anywhere on here and surely if the poster is as respected as suggested than this might be new thread worthy.

If not mods then please lock,delete or do whatever you think is right

NigelLG started this ...it was all a lie..can be found in Rafa watch thread

He started the rumour and then they deleted a lot of posts about it. The reason was that we shouldn't get to excited.

If it would have been from someone that they don't trust then they would have said so. They first contact the ones that say they have a source to find out if it's a bull**** one or not. If they then think it's bull**** then they say so and delete the posts.

I hope its it true, give Rafa a second chance.

I would not jump on that bandwagon so quickly. During the the dark days of H&G on RAWK and various websites including est (although we quickly hounded them out and don't take anything at all seriously here until it is official) so many posters stated so much about takeovers etc. IIRC a mod on RAWK 'Somethingelse' said Takeover will happen to chinese Haung guy etc it did not happen. I don't fall for this vetted posters/trusted source stuff.

Let it go, join the ride, lets go crazy but I'll rather not take it seriously unless its official after all this could end up like Zidane is looking for a house on merseyside.

'oh rafa already has one'

In that case it was proved without any doubt at all that the RAWK member had a source. The member posted articles from The Times a few hours before they released them on the net or in the papers. The Times of course got it completely wrong that time.

i can go and speak to a tramp who is pissed, its a source, it doesnt mean it will happen.

Here is the post from RAWK

Typical of you....sad really.

You make a statement of fact which you now freely admit ISN'T, then justify it by asking me to prove it didn't happen.

Surely to God something happened to put this idea into your head at some point....what's the matter are you terrified to show which paper you read it in?

Just as a little aside. Benitez was at Anfield on Wednesday evening and will be there again at some point on Thursday of next week.
He also had a telephone conversation with Damien Comolli yesterday.

The second coming

[vlahka]

Cant wait for him to come back, be given 20mill by the owners because theres no way they're giving more then that for now, and then demand they back him or sack him. Merry-go-round of greatness.

He was just using it to try and prove a point. He's told me and a few others himself so sorry folks, Rafa may have been at Anfield lately but it wasn't on business

[frank the tank]

if it was true that rafa got 16m from LFC (I suspect that it was probably closer to 4 or 5) then there is no way that they would pay him top whack.....he'd probably have to take a big pay cut to come back or the club would just look stupid..... but i reckon he would still jump at it if he could........

the other big obstacle would be the total control thing...... would rafa work under commoli??? i'm not so sure, he seemed to make it his mission to get total fergie-esque control at anfield first time round.....how would rafa feel with not having a say in the young players we bring in for example..........although to be honest, maybe when he left anfield in the summer, he reflected that he bit off more than he could chew......rafa was sucessful when he just had the 1st team to worry about.........perhaps he would recognise this.....

final obstacle would be that he would have to bomb out carragher and gerrard......


i'd take rafa back in a heartbeat though to be honest....

It was Rafa that gave Borell and Segura the control they have now as soon as he had the power the give them that control so he would be very happy if they ran our youth system and had the ultimate say there.

Rafa got £6m when he left us, £3m straight away and the rest be paid later. Rafa said time after time that he only wanted the same power our rivals give their managers, nothing more, nothing less. Nothing wrong with that.

[frank the tank]

well i'd personally love him to come back, bomb out any player that is not fully committed and then bring us back to where we belong.....

also, how thick do ******s like Andy Gray and Lawro look now.........****ing cunts

[barnes10]

how about rafa has told his boys in the squad: Reina, Torres, Kuyt, Lucas, Agger, Johnson, that he is back and ready to return.

they then go to NESV to say '**** carra, hodgson and whoever the **** else, Rafa is a world class coach. Get him in.'
