Very true. I agree and I agree with the point you made earlier it does stink of trying to score points on his way out but that lot across the park will lap it up, we all know what they are like. It works too, many people I know who wanted him out for many months are now putting stuff like 'what a guy Rafa, YNWA' on Facebook.

Well I would ask why he has decided to make this particular donation public?

Has he?

I haven't heard anything from him, not even about his new job, the only comment I have read about the donation came from the group itself.

He hasn't I don't think, as I said in my last post people mentioning how fantastic he is on Facebook is where I learnt of it. I don't he has said anything about it.

Well I would assume that any previous donations haven't been made in person. On this particular occasion Rafa chose to stroll into the offices and hand over a cheque, or so I've read. Don't get me wrong, it's a fine gesture by the bloke. Just the timing of it stinks of petty points scoring IMO.

He's going to Milan next week so it had to be now. And the £96,000 was just what he had in his savings account. No way was this a publicity stunt, not at all. :roll:

Publicity stunt or not. The bloke has handed over a cheque for £96k to a charity.

The bloke handed over a £96k cheque to a campaign group, not a charity.

I'm a cynic at the best of times, but can't people just give the guy a break for once? It's a fine gesture and should be applauded, not criticised.
