but if you "believe" the reports, Benitez has turned the club around, winning games, winning playing good looking footbal, won 13 of 17, +10 GD, top by 5points. Reasons to be optimistic if they continue on this path...
if they win promotion, it depends on how benitez spends the cash to strengthen, I'm not sure on his transfer acumen, probably just based on his wanting to replace xabi alonso with gareth barry at liverpool
I can see Benitez having a go at it, newcastle sleeping giant and all that...
Seems like he's managed to wrest some sort of control over the club if you believe all the pieces Louise Taylor has been writing.
