    Leicester to Liverpool is the same journey time too.

    He won't be going there, they don't have enough money. They have net spend of 25m per season averaged over the last three seasons. Given that is with the bonus of a League win and CL football, I can't see him fancying that. Rafa will want some decent money to spend wherever he goes next.

    I want someone with self belief
    I want someone who is passionate about our club.
    I want them to demonstrably show how much they love our club.
    I want someone who people have said is the best coach in the league.
    I want someone who will call out the idiotic fans

    I have found that man. He is available and ready to work.

    And so it begins, l wondered how long it would be before the non transfer stories were replaced with Rafa to leave NUFC and join ...........
    I knew this would be happening but to start seeing it in writing really upsets me.
    It’s such a shame, as when he joined, l really thought we were turning the corner.

    We were and we did. Sadly we decided to go the wrong way round it.

    It's difficult to fathom what goes on in Mike Ashley's head as far as retaining Premier League status goes.

    He's only here to cream the big bucks of the TV money, but when Rafa goes, this club will drop like a stone.

    His answer?
    Sam Allardyce.

    You heard it here first!

    You just know it...

    Hasn’t he already sacked Sam?!

    Nah, Moyes. At best.

    He dismissed Sam in a manner that left Allardyce rather bitter (from the comments he made following), he is simply not in the running to come back here whilst Ashley is the boss.

    We'll get bloody Phil Brown though. Anyone who is out of work and is willing to work with poor players and no money. Oh and a massive arse of an owner.

    Also doesn’t he like to travel by helicopter? I have heard the approach and departure can be a bit tricky around the Leicester area.
