Thanks for Big Ears, Rafa.

Aye, and thanks for some amazing nights in Europe, we beat the best of the best regularly - you put us back at the top table - YNWA Rafa.
 
Extremely sad about this news on a personal level, and i'm sure most supporters will always have a soft spot for Rafa. But as someone said earlier, onwards and upwards we must go.
 
I supported him right up until we failed to qualify for the CL or win the UEFA Pot (having set one or the other as my requirement for him, I couldn't then go back on it). I was also in no doubt whatsoever that the man loved the club and was busting to do well here, so I always knew this would be a sad day, whenever it came and for whatever reason.

Both his time in charge and the sadness of his going remind me of GH, another who truly loved being Liverpool manager but was ultimately unable to grow with the job beyond a certain point. If he goes to Inter (which looks likely now) I hope he tears up Serie A. I also hope we avoid them in Europe, because any team up against Rafa in Europe has a tough job on its hands.
 
So we've rid ourselves of Rafa. I suppose we'll throw a bit of money at the new guy. I hope he doesn't almost win the title, because that'll preclude him receiving additional funds the following year. Rafa was the author of a lot of his own misfortune, but he's been treated like shit, and didn't deserve to go out this way.

6CM got it's wish.

I'm slightly worried and hope the far away grass is greener.

Quite.
 
It was time to go, but I do feel for him personally, I don't doubt his love for the club or his ability as a manager, it just wasn't working here anymore. I'm sure he'll go on doto really well elsewhere.

All the best Rafa, thanks for everything, but it really was time to go.

YNWA
 
Fights start because Grjt, or whatever he's called, want them to.

Why the mods continuously overlook this is beyond me.
 
YNWA Rafa.

Thanks for all the memories, I wonder when we will be able to have such memories again.
 
Treated absolutely disgracefully by a board of know nothing cunts, not given adequate funding and forced to run the club on a shoestring

god help whoever is stupid enough to take over, it wont be of the caliber of Benitez who will get another top job easily enough and I wish him luck. Our top players will be mad not to be considering their futures

I'm shocked this is your view.
Rosco has your number - 'Everything Rebel says can be contradicted by fact'
 
Likewise, feel completely sad. we all perhaps feel this isn't a bad thing, but he brought us to new heights... put us back in Europe's elite, and I'll always have GREAT memories of all the amazing wins against the likes of Real, Barca, united, Juventus, AC, and more..

You'll never walk alone RAFATOLLAH!!!

which could have been spent on a player, ridiculous. I only hope Moratti is funding it, i think something is behind it. the figure seems to tally with what they got from Real for Mourinho

Have some respect. Some of the things people spout about our (now ex) manager is a joke.
Pro or anti Rafa it's hardly a moment for celebration.

I hope everything works out for us or your rabid dancing will make you look like a bit of a cunt.
[/quote]

To be fair to Terrier it is probably the only way he knows how to dance
 
his own misfortune to qualify us every year for the CL and take us to two finals and beat our record points tally twice. A victim of his own success because the stupid idiots thought we should be doing better with no money and half the wage bill of clubs like Chelsea

Remember Benitez PAID for every transfer he has ever made, he has done us a massive favour and not the one who put us in debt and forcing the club to be run on a shoestring budget with ridiculous expectations. I lcan't believe how foolish the Liverpool board are but that's modern football for you, the press are all experts
 
Another quote from Rawk

"£6mill pay off apparently - he's worth ten times that and then some."
