Wor Rafa just had tears in his eyes. **** me I love the Sexy Spanish bastard. Job done. Best Manager since Robson and he's united us on and off the pitch. Milk it. ****ing drink it in.
Did you guys notice him go into the bowls of St James' to shake hands with staff of all departments and even insist that everyone got a selfie opportunity. A true man of the people. Just like SBR.
I have no problems with a chief scout having input but they have to be competent. There should also be control over how much is spent and also budgeting in terms of wages; we need to be living within our means. Rafa needs to have the final say over signing a player, though, of course.
