    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.

    Tears, selfies, etc. Maybe he knows it's his farewell?

    I think he is just that type of guy.
    He always deflects praise onto his staff. I really like that.

    Rafa has been a breath of fresh air.
    Ashley now needs to let Rafa take full control.

    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.
