    Rafa's interview doesn't paint him in very good light asking for s pay rise to stay on.

    Why? After 3 years on the same salary would you not have asked for an increase?

    Jose turned down a mega contact in China. Is there a reason for this?

    C'mon Toons!

    Of course. But it may come across as leaving for more money to some.

    Somewhat. But you have to put it into context, that offer from China has been there his whole tenure. If I was managing at a club the state of ours, which I hadn't supported all my life, I'd have ****ed off to China for four times the wage as soon as the opportunity came.

    Rafa gets held up to some very odd moral standards at times. Think we'd all be quite happy to get **** loads of money to do an easier job

    So they knew from May that he was leaving. Yet saw fit to advertise shirts and tickets on the basis that he would be manager. Disgusting.

    This 'Rafa can do no wrong' bollocks is frankly getting tiresome. Get some perspective. He did OK ish for a salary commensurate with a top 6 manager, wanted a 4 or 5 year contract on more money. It is highly unlikely any new owner would want to keep him. Certainly no one in the premier league has wanted him.
    He is gone - get over it.
    Having said that, he will probably be available again in seven months or so.

    Who says the man can do no wrong?
    He did enough right, including playing hardball with our 'board'.

    When she said Leave means Leave I don't think she was was referring to Rafa.
