    I hope it's true but journo's do tend to 'take a punt' with information they receive.

    Not sure of the transfer stories either. Four of the best players leaving despite Benitez staying? :emoticon-0112-wonde

    Good luck with his, the guy is top manager and will almost certain have you in the mix to get straight back up. Regardless what division either of our teams are in, the season is not the same without the derby...hurry back...I for one will miss you lot around.

    Joking aside, I generally miss these games win lose or draw. My brother is black and white and I had to endure sitting in his house watch you lot thump us 5-1...but thats what make this game special. The banter and anticipation of the game and the bragging rights when whoever team wins. Admitted its been in our favour recently, but not always like that. Anyway, as I said good luck with Rafa, he is a top manager and I really hope he does the job for you guys.

    Great news when it's confirmed. It just makes you want to weep that it has taken 9 years, 2 relegations, several managers and tens of millions of the club's money wasted for Ashley to finally realise that he needs to employ a competent manager and let him build his own team.

    Hope he is worth all the faith you are putting in him and you come straight back up...We need the points.

    It looks like if continental Rafa wants total control like Sam...let's hope they both succeed

    I don't think anyone is putting a massive amount of faith in him bringing us straight back up. At least they shouldn't be as there are no guarantees on that regardless who is in charge. I think people have faith that we are simply likely to be managed in a professional manner with some sort of plan. That to us is a success after the last 10 years.
