0% Villa: Benitez sacked (Confirmed p.6)

[*shellac*]

Fair play.

He's confirmed as the new Inter coach/manager or whatever.

Credit where credit is due.  

£1000 for each of the 96 who died at Hillsborough is a fitting gesture (and when you consider his pay-off, let alone what he's earned in salary, a gesture is what it is) and does the man a lot of credit.

I wonder how much Hicks and Gillett will donate when they eventually sell the club?

it won't be surprising if it's zilch.

They don't have that attachment to the club, unlike Benitez.

Apologies if previously posted.

Just wanted to raise the point of rafa giving £96,000 to the Hillsbourgh charity.
I know he's had a lot of bad press lately but what a good gesture to show his respect for the
 club and fans of liverpool

[PaulTheVillan]

Rafa is great, he's done a great job at Liverpool. Shame he's not still there to make them even worse.

[Namaste]

Good on him, I've seen him involved with other charity fundraisers over the years.

Many footballers/managers do a lot for charity and it goes unnoticed.

[Concrete John]

Strange amount, £96,000?  Why not a round £100k - tax reasons?

£1000 for each person who lost their life, perhaps?

[alan_clarke]

will soften the blow when he comes back to raid them for Mascherano and co.

[willywombat]

Fair play to him. Never held him in particularly high esteem, ( not that he would have lost any sleep over that ), but a grand gesture all the same

[Des Little]

That's a great gesture by the man, all credit to him

[Chris Smith]

Yes, a great way to say thanks to fans who have backed him throughout.

[JUAN PABLO]

Did he get any part in Toy Story 3 then?....  


maybe gave them that fee...

Not saying it wasn't a nice gesture, but how is it charity? people die, you move on. If there's another reason for it being a charity then I do opologise.
