How much time should Rafa have been given?

I think the rant was great, well worded, to the point, and without pulling a 'Keegan'

It was just the timing, its putting himself in the firing line and putting pressure on the team.  Totally not what they needed.

The same with promising to deliver 4th.  




Its stuff like that that got on my nerves about Rafa.

Was the rant about the same time that Gerrard twated that Manc

Actually around the time of the court case, I heard a story that the reason he went out in front of the press with the 'fergie facts' was to take the pressure of Steven and to stop the press asking questions about the case.

Apart from that, Rafa was spot on with what he said about the purple nosed arl c**t.

I'd have liked Rafa to have had at least one more season.

We weren't to know that we were going to be taken over by new owners just a few months after he went though Rafa with good backing would've been superb.

He was given long enough. Club needed a new/fresh approach, it was time for him to go (not saying Roy is the answer). Really wish people would stop going on about Rafa, he's gone for f*ck sake

Really wish people would stop dimissing Rafa and his achievements with this club. Especially when you see how the current manager is performing.

The correct answer is "at bare minimum until the cancers were ousted from this club".

Must agree with you BigRed, should have have had at least one more season.
