Rafa Benitez on the touchline – cool it
Here is Rafa’s Sky Sports interview after the game today.
The purpose of the comments is to allow Newcastle United fans and others to express their views on the news of the day concerning the Newcastle United Football Club.
In general, we'd ask you to be civil towards other readers and refrain from obscene language and any comments on religion, ethnic groups or politics.
The key to all of this is to be respectful to other readers in expressing your opinion.
Please let's make this work - and let's help the Newcastle United Football Club become great again.
That's all we ask, and why we created this site in the first place back in 2007.

I was diagnosed with stage 4 prostate cancer in February 2017 and started hormone treatment back on 6th March and chemotherapy infusions on 13th April.
I completed the chemotherapy treatments on July 27th and am currently recovering from the sometimes massive side effects of the chemo.
The next step is to have another cat scan in early October to gauge my current medical condition following chemotherapy.
At that time we will work out what comes next.
While there’s no cure for stage 4 cancer there are treatments to prolong life
I'll do my very best in the coming months to fight this with everything I have.

One of our avid readers Kacper Tylenda from Poland was the person who came in during April, 2017 and redesigned this web-site from top to bottom.
We think he did a fantastic job to modernize the site with the roll-out on Thursday May 18th surprisingly smooth.
I am so appreciative of his help.
Kacper is starting his own business in web-design so if you want a website built or know of people who want to redo their sites in any way – here’s his portfolio.

Comment #2The only team we play that we should be able to beat is Villa. We are still very unlikely to stay up but i guess anything is possible

Comment #3Good Interview by Rafa acknowledging the starting 11 and mention Cisse hard work upfront when the reporter mention Mitro.
A very well balance interview.
A good manager will know who to come in at a later stage.
Glad the Stand-In Captain was on the bench. Phew…

Comment #5Goal difference could come into final placings.
I think I would see how Gini starts on Tuesday…..Aarons waiting in the wings.
Rafa needs to get Perez to look up rather than trying to score a ‘world individual’ goal
