Toony Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 Reported by the Daily Mail he is unhappy that the club hasn't secured his main transfer targets. Not surprised, could see it coming a mile off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HK85 Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 Benitez doesn't walk away. He'd rather get sacked. If things don't go his way he leaks shit to the press until they do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rafa Beneathus Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 Been concerned about our lack of movement but at this time last year we had hardly been active either. The stuff he has said has basically contradicted what the local journalists have said regarding our targets too. Hope we sign a couple soon to calm everything down. If Rafa is forced out though then they won't get a penny out me til Ashley is gone/dead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Honey Honey Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 Walking away because we didn't sign Willy Caballero and Tammy Abraham? I hope that is just a case of slow news week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rafa Beneathus Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 Abraham rejected us, Caballero went to Chelsea, LeJeuen or whatever it's spelled is our primary defensive target according to local media and Delph? We have been linked for about 2 year. Hopefully it's bollocks, sounds it but I would never write NUFC off when it comes to pressing self destruct - and that's what it would be, big time.

The Liquidator Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 Chelsea are believed to have advised the 19-year-old against joining the Magpies, because they felt there were too many off-field distractions for a well-paid teenage footballer. They were worried that a city famed for its nights out would prove to be too much of a goldfish bowl for Abraham in a season away from Stamford Bridge. John Richardson D. Mirror. How is that Newcastle's Fault? The Fat Spanish Interim Waiter surly can't be throwing his Toys out the Pram already? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LFCMadLad Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 Rafa likes control and if he doesn't get it he walks. He'll also totally call out the owners if they don't comply with the promises made when he signed a contract. Love the bloke! Doesn't give a fuck! I was really hoping he'd have a good time at Newcastle because I like Rafa and I like Newcastle as a club. Massive club that deserve more than they have been given over the past few years and Rafa is absolutely the best manager they could get to stabilise them. Fuck him off though and he will leave.

Had Newcastle won the lottery like you lot did then they could have been massive. They are north though and Chelsea is the posh part of London.

Toony Posted June 24, 2017 Author Share Posted June 24, 2017 I am convinced that Mike Ashley isn't wanting to spend a penny because he knows there's a chance he's going to sell the club. If he doesn't want to buy anyone, nothing and nobody will convince him to change his mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It must be so frustrating for you lads because you genuinely have one of the best managers in Europe and it looks like you're gonna waste the opportunity.

You are a lottery club, frauds that cook the books. If I was a neutral I'd support Newcastle everyday because they are real. Chelsea are just fakes run by a part of the Russian mafia.

Dave Posted June 25, 2017 Share Posted June 25, 2017 This would be a disaster for Newcastle. There team on paper is quite weak for this level so they need Rafa to attract the players needed to steer clear of a relegation battle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Honey Honey Posted June 25, 2017 Share Posted June 25, 2017 The local journo's say there's no indication he wants to leave, he is just frustrated with the way transfers are going. Lejeune was supposed to have signed by now. I think something has held that up. I doubt he's annoyed we didn't sign Willy fucking Caballero.

I think the problem will be that he was told he would have final say on the transfers, he's told them who he wants (Abraham & Caballero) and they haven't delivered. Personnel isn't really relevant.

Subscriber Dan+ Posted June 26, 2017 Subscriber Share Posted June 26, 2017 I am quite surprised at your lack of activity so far. Was quite intrigued to see who you would bring in.

Still time yet but I'm surprised there hasn't been anything. No signings were made until the end of June last year and we ended up with about 12 coming in. A breakthrough needs to be made this week really, they're back for pre-season next Monday and need one or two new faces in to improve the mood. Hardly any of the deadwood has gone yet either.

Honey Honey Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 Andreas Samaras deal from Benfica almost done. Lejeune deal just a few financial things away from being tied up. I think we will have a flurry at some point. Shame Delph is to end up at Stoke but his wages were probably daft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
