Gutted still-fucking-gutted!

[todda]

Gutted, time to bring out the James Blunt album, and repeat - goodbye my lover (like Bryn on Gavin and Stacey)

[gnaume]

canvas that's going to be put in the living room of my new apartment, still in work

Soueys tache- Great contribution. Brilliant pic.

He had our backs and we stab him in his.

What a fucking shambles.

you know I was just about to say you are wrong.... but you are right some supporters definitely stabbed him in the back

Some players by the sounds of it aswell. It's been an almighty fuck up which we may not recover from for at least 5 years or so.

No argument from me, if they turn out to be true.

[redoneusa]

I'd post one but I can't add attachments. The pic of him waving goodbye says it all.. followed by this statement:

“I’ll always keep in my heart the good times I’ve had here, the strong and loyal support of the fans in the tough times and the love from Liverpool. I have no words to thank you enough for all these years and I am very proud to say that I was your manager.

“Thank you so much once more and always remember: You’ll never walk alone.”

[Solomon Grundy]

Im wellin up here.

I think having The Mighty Wah - The story of the blues playin in the background doesnt help either.

[LukeD]

That's the most beautiful picture, just look how much in love they are.  At least Montse can appreciate what she's got.

Thank you Rafa; whichever club benefits from this joke of a decision will be in very safe hands, I just hope they treat you better than those idiots did.  You're a gent, a fantastic manager, a true football fan and someone whose time here will one day be recognised for what it was and you will be fully celebrated.

I'm welling up too - quite unlike me to get emotional over something like this

Not been this sad since King Kenny quit in 1991. The only difference was I was 14 then. I'm 34 now.

[GinKop]

Just watched this again, fucking welled up with tears

Game Over!!

[Art Vandelay]

[Sorted!!]

I think I'm welling up here and better leave here before the mighty waterworks come on.

Rafa, thank you for everything, thank you ever so much. Wish you, Montse and the kids all the best wherever you go.

Good luck, you will always be welcome at Anfield. Now you can join us in the Kop for a game. Hope you manage to fulfil that ambition.

[Red_Rich]

Great pic.

But poignantly it sums up the sad state at our club atm.  A Yanks Out banner above a banner showing Rafa among this clubs managerial legends, where he definitely deserves to be.  Two aspects of one picture and one club, but a million miles apart.

Fuck off NOW you lying bastards!

[Nebnotsew]

I'm devastated, even more so after reading through this thread. He's only 50, I hope he comes back one day.

not a picture but its funny as fuck

That was great, thanks.  I've never seen that before.

I also think this one is worth a view.

God, I'm going to miss you, Rafa.

Thought the same thing to myself earlier, except I'm two years older. Still can't quite believe it.

[redgriffin73]

Was going to make this my screensaver but I'm not sure I could bear to keep looking at it. Great pic though.

Rafa using his famously non-existent man management skills to tame a raging Mascherano with two words.

Love this, it's like a dad calming his lad down.

[Macphisto80]

That bottom one had me in wrinkles again. Good ol' times in that thread. Good ol' Rafa.

[redgriffin73]

[TOMMO86]

Still cant believe he has gone.

[jaffod]

I'll never forget the first time I saw this in Cardiff. One of those moments that seem uique to Liverpool Football Club, just remember people with looks of disbelief on their faces as it was paraded down the street.

[El Denzel Pepito]

Oh god, how I miss him Tell me this is all a huge fucking nightmare, one all Liverpool fans are having to dream?

[AlanMc]

I made a little video as a tribute to Rafa. This is what I will miss most

Now, look at the pictures above and tell me; can you imagine Martin O'Neills face on those?

No but I could imagine his head on a pike.

[RigBon1892]

No but I could imagine his head on a pike.

As long as it's after Hicks, Gillett, Purslow and Broughton's heads.
