are they or are you posting what your psychic powers tell you again HOMER? The Owners have come out and told rafa to concentrate on the games, the following statement was that they would be coming over in december to talk over their plans with Rafa in mid december as previously planned |

the owners have stated WE WILL MEET WITH RAFA IN DECEMBER,that doesnt sound to me like they are going to sack him,although im sure any future talk should be kept in house |

You cannot seriously tell me there has been no bust up over this no way. I will listen to what Guillem Ballague says about this as he is always right and if he says what im thinking then thats all that matters. I dont think you realise how angry the owners are at Rafa it is either that or you have your head in the sand. |

JIMMY, Do you see any similarity between what happened between Roman & Mourhino, and what's happening between Rafa & Gillett/Hicks? Example - Roman wanted Champions League more than anything and held Mourhino'd tactics responsible for not achieving it. Gillett/Hicks along with everyone else associated with LFC want the League Title more than anything else and hold Rafa's tactics responsible for what looks like another disappointment? Example 2 - Roman holding back on money for crucial transfers Mourhino wanted in January (coincidence it happened to be a cb) which led to disagreements played out in public eventually causing an irreversible breakdown in relations between owner & manager? |

But its not a dissapointment in the league is it? We are in a far better position than we were in last season, best away record in the league and still undefeated. We have had more draws at home at this stage than we wanted but we are very much still in the fight. It seems the problem of holding back on money has been basically due to the champions league situation, thats why the owners are waiting until we know whats happening there before discussing the situation. If I was in the Owners shoes I would be probably thinking exactly the same thing as going out of the CL is potentially a large amount of revenue lost. On the flip side, rafa knows how the market works and that you have got to go in early. So in that respect if I was the manager I would be thinking the same as him. The problem of all of this has occured from the communication between the Owners and Rafa not being clear enough. That much has been evident from all of this. I wouldnt put much similarity in the situation here and the Roman/Mourinho one as its was obvious that they were not seeing eye to eye for a very long time. Plus Roman see's chelsea more as his toy at times, just wanting to be entertained more than anything else. I know theres something wrong behind the scenes at Anfield and its not normal for us to air things in public, that was out of turn for rafa and I think he has now realised it. How this will end I dont know, maybe rafa will end up leaving, maybe he wont. My personal belief is that he will stay, come mid december all of this will be sorted and we will continue on with the rest of the season. My bug bear in all of this and whats annoying me is the media and the fools that are believing everything thats being reported. It doesnt take a genius to look at the actual things said and realise just how out of propotion the entire thing is being blown. Sadly such is the power of the media now that if Rafa was to be given the boot it will be the media's fault in this and very little to do with the actual issues. A bit of realism is needed at these times, seperating the facts from the bullsh1t.

and HOMER, Pm'ing me and demanding that i stop arguing and admit your right is not a way to win a debate. You need to bring facts to the table, bring factual evidence to back up your claims, a bit like how you failed miserably at it in the "arsenal are the fairest in the land" claims |

Well you have your opinion might be a wrong one but ok thats your decision but you have to realise not everything you hear si rumours and I can assure you that Rafa is a different man now then he was a few months ago. |

i have my facts and my opinion, thus far you just have an opinion. Which is why i will stop talking to you on this matter now as you are completely incapable of a reasoned debate. Something that I can only hope for your sake will come as you grow up |
