I sincerely doubt that Oscar wasted too much time on that one, he has a squad of players who I presume were gagging to play, so why bother with a player who had his head turned and wanted out? He may have been player of the season for two years but that becomes irrelevant if he has lost the...
From the Argus
Reacting to chairman Tony Bloom saying Poyet told him in March he wanted to leave, the former Albion manager added: "It's very interesting. Tony Bloom needs to get over me. If it's true what he is saying, he is talking about before the Crystal Palace game (March 17). A week later...
Call me a cynic - Reading in free fall to the division that the Albion had every chance of getting out of at the time. Potential promotion on your CV and leave afterwards or a relegation on your cv (not his fault but it would have been there) and another season in the second tier. I can see...
I can imagine that LOADS of people have heard one side of the story, be it the boards or Poyets, I really doubt many have heard both which would be the only way to draw a decent conclusion?
I've heard neither but I hold my hands up to being pissed off with the Gus persona if not the football...
Not sure that that is FAIR :lolol:
One says he knows what happened and has formed his opinion and is on the boards side, the other admits he hasn't a clue so shouldn't be coming down on either side??
Does BW know anything? I haven't a clue but he says he does.
But if he was just being fair he would not be coming down on either side of the fence and I get the impression that his feelings over this are quite anti the board and quite pro Poyet.
Maybe I've misinterpreted
Nope, don't get it. Was there some clause that he had to pay the compensation if he quit, if not he could have just left. Had he been tapped up and the club had proof, therefore he couldn't just quit because of the repercussions?
I just don't understand why he couldn't have walked if he was...
I thought he wanted to quit in March, why did he need to be engineered out?
He could have just handed in his resignation. You really do make things so simplistic to fit in with your agenda sometimes.
Nobody has to stay in a job they don't like when they are not dependant on the job for money.
Most guys would then decide that this wasn't the girl for them in the long term and be sad and angry with the way it ended. Then there would be others who would continue to go all starry eyed and defensive when her name is mentioned and spend the next 6 months reminiscing about the great times...
