    Gary Lineker ‏@GaryLineker 5m
    Rafa Benitez said to have been dismissed by Chelsea. Interim manager being fired, a first, even for Chelsea surely!

    Delete lock as appropiate.

    Cant be true? Can it?

    Could be a set-up for April Fools. Maybe.

    Normally I'd say April fool but when it comes to Chelsea and sacking managers..


  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators Posts: 21,693 Mod ✭✭✭✭helimachoptor


    Manager sacked 14 hours before united game...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 36,466 ✭✭✭✭SlickRic


    there'd be other sources of note.

    April Fools' all over IMO.

    MoN sacked a few hours after playing Utd. Rafa 14 hours before. Manicini must be typing up his C.V. already.:D

    All the big reporters saying it's not true


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,007 ✭✭✭KH25


    Doubt it. Abramovich isn't exactly great at holding on to managers but I think even he knows how ridiculous it would be to sack Rafa 14 hours before the United game and so close to the end of the season.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 42,788 Mod ✭✭✭✭Lord TSC


    Wouldn't be shocked if he goes if United win tomorrow though.

    Maybe Roman put his clock a day forward


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 42,788 Mod ✭✭✭✭Lord TSC


    Also...don't actually see it on Lineker's twitter...

    EDIT: Nevermind

    Definitely not true but it would be brilliant if they did and replaced him with MON.

    wouldnt be surpised, put out a weakened team in the pl when 4th is bound to be the clubs priority. id say he just wants the fa for his cv and doesnt give a toss about the league in comparison.

    Or maybe he's trying to get his former team Liverpool top 4 :rolleyes:

    I think everyone in life would. She's fantastic. I'd take orders from her any day.
