Its a tactical move by Rafa ...so He isn't in charge of us for Lieceiesiceiester game. Shelvey has already stated 'they trained like usual this week' ...so a huge stuffing is on the cards Rafa rocks up, executing the new manager tactic the Makems have so, so ,so successfully used against them...we win 5-1 Rafa is carried away on the shoulders of joyous Toon fans ...a sacrificial horse is punched (along with a back up punch or twelve for Charnley) Rafa returns to his day job of serving paella ..only to re-emerge every saturday to lead us on an unbeaten run to victory in the league, CL and world cup. Who was that goatee'd man? children will whisper in hushed tones for years to come
I was going to do a thread like this but you beat me to it What can you do in 48 hours: Fly to Australia and back. The world record (obviously set by Tash) for male ejaculations in one hour is 16, times by 48 hours you hit a staggering 768 sets of crusty tissues and for equality's sake the women's record is 134, again times 48 a heroic 6432 ejaculations putting us men to shame. Wayne Kurtz of the USA once completed 158 miles in 48 hours on foot, stopping only for food and bathroom breaks. You could watch the entirety of series 1, 2, 3 and 4 of "Luther" 3 times. N.A.S.A. paid some lucky sod $18,000 to lie in bed for 90 days for the 48 hours in question that would have equated to $400... The record for distance covered in the "Le Mans 24 hour race" is 5410.73km double up for a marathon 10821.43km Could go on, but you get the idea. Now we are well over 48 hours just imagine the tissues.
If the press reports are to be believed the way that Charnley has handled this is pretty piss poor. I don't like McLaren and don't want him to stay, that said, they are treating him appallingly and for that reason alone l think he is quite justified in staying put until he is formally dismissed. Why should McLaren act with class and credibility, the club don't.
