I think comm has a hard on for wor Rafa. I bet he has a fluffy pink heart shaped photo frame with a pic of him in by his bed which he strokes before he goes for the vinegar strokes......
If we shortened the question to 'how many managers have you had in the prem'... you will need help counting on your fingers past 12.
I think the very prestige of the appointment raises the profile of this club, despite our relegation. I really hope he stays long-term, but I can't help but think we may have to attract another top Manager at some point. He'd be a tough act to follow (hopefully) and I think now that all the other top Managers have seen Rafa here, they would seriously consider Newcastle United as a future destination. Especially if we're back in the Premier League by then. Bottom line says his appointment has increased our current chances of success, and also that of our future ones.
