[McNamara That Ghost...]

Banners galore for Rafa. Not in support of him.

Even a child was holding a Rafa Out banner.

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

Not sure what I want more; Rafa to leave tomorrow and for them to bring in Terry, or for him to stay for the rest of the season and see them implode for the next 2 months....

It'll be great "fan power" if he does stay until the end though, removing a manager who was leaving anyway.

Can they not see how idiotic they are, though?

No boos though

[McNamara That Ghost...]

The stream I have for the Clasico has Tyldesley and Gray commentating.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Jordi Alba.

A start like that is deserving of a Premier League thread.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Stoke should be leading apparently.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

I've got the Real Madrid anthem in my head now.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Messi.

Not close to David Villa that one.
