Assume we win the europa cup, will it still be fair to sack rafa?
Im just thinking, if he goes on and wins the europa cup, can any board still be in a position to sack the coach?
I couldnt care less anymore, i just want the season to end.

yes i would to be honest because it would only hide the issues we clearly have. The end of the day the league is a fair guide on how a team is over a season. If we finish 5th or worse then its not good.

i think it would depend on rafa contract, what the minimum requirements are for him to stay. if he wins a the europa, i dnt think it will be easy to sack him.
If the 4th spot is his minimum requirment, then he will be gone.
Oddly is that he could win europa and still get lucky for 4th sopt. lol
Although i cant see us getting 4th spot

i dont think anyone will like this but the truth is we arnt going to finish fourth so if we get knocked out of the paint trophey and finish the season 7th or 8th if it takes that to get rafa out then as horrible as it might be then so be it because if we dont finish 4th which we wont does it matter were we finish in league ,and were not good enough to win paint trophey

Lets face it 4th place has gone, 5th or 6th is probably were we will end up. Apart from the Chelsea game I believe we will get maximum points from the other 6 games. Something clicked in the game against Portsmouth & that is the team that should be facing Sunderland next week.
I don't believe Rafa will be sacked to be honest. I think the Yanks & the rest of the hierarchy believes injuries played their part this season. Because of this Rafa will be in charge at the start of next season. I also believe he has a big signing in the bag & the club are backing him financially. The club wouldn't back him if this was the case.
All this info is based on personal opinion, but if we did not end up in Europe next season I believe it will be a blessing in disguise. I can see us pushing hard for the title without Europe being of any concern.

if we win the europa cup, and finish in 5th i dont think he will go. Hell if we dont win Europa, finish strong but in 5th or worse i still dont think he´ll get the sack...
