So you think Rafa would come to a club that is about to sell one of it's best players? Ha ha. Like I suggested before, selling AWB is a clear message to everyone else that our club has no ambition on the pitch. Rafa isn’t coming here as there isn’t a vacancy. Selling AWB is good business, nothing to do with lacking ambition. You appear a bit naive in a lot of negative posts. What is the lowest position we have finished since we were promoted? Always comfortably mid table, where does surviving by fingertips start?

Well you might call it naive but as a football fan, my primary interest is seeing my team win. I'll be negative as I choose about what I see as a negative move by the club.

He then stayed with them after he failed to keep them up and spent a year in the Championship, a bit of a come down from his previous club, Real Madrid. Being paid £6m a year may have something to do with it.

Give him the sort of budget he's had at Newcastle ( and would have at Palace ) and he will provide dull, pragmatic football. You know, the kind of stuff that Hodgson gets criticised for.

We have Roy and Roy won't make waves when we sell our prized players.

It's 106 miles to Chicago, we got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark... and we're wearing sunglasses. |

You’re talking about this as someone who has no responsibility over cpfc accounts. Very easy to say what we should and shouldn’t do without having the problems facing the people now needing to keep a balanced squad. The mistakesk were made not having proper scouting and signing £30 mil players and paying them over £100k and up to £130k.
