Agree, it is a shame really, but he is the master of his own downfall. He needs to purchase his own club to be fully entitled to do as he pleases. Still, he is a rich failure so he got somethings right. :)

Yep, obviously players can be hit or miss, Toby Alderweireld is doing very well at Shampton, but I think it was more about Poyet phoning up their agents and saying he didn't want them, when the deal had been on the verge of completion. From the Mail : "When Sunderland sporting director Lee...

From the Guardian: Poyet, despite his frequent moans about a lack of autonomy, had a big say in transfers, sabotaging Congerton’s summer attempts to sign Micah Richards and Toby Alderweireld while being permitted to recruit the ineffective Will Buckley, Sebastián Coates, Ricardo Álvarez and...

This fella might agree with you :lolol:

It's about believing in themselves and enjoying what they do, and some are more humble than others.

Wenger, Martinez, Hughton?

Yep, he tried to bore the opposition and they just let us pass it at the back whilst they held or regained their shape. We saw us too many times desperately clinging onto games in the last 15 minutes. Gus was always telling the fans to be patient and we gave that to him, even though many games...

You seem quite confident on the finer detail and it sounds plausible. I guess when Gus told TB he wanted to leave, TB would have put him to the test at the first opportunity. He failed just by talking to Reading, but to use it to e-negotiate with TB would have sealed his end of season fate...

Don't know how true this is; Extract "Poyet put himself forward to West Ham last summer and then to Crystal Palace more recently" http://www.pressreader.com/uk/daily-mail/20150317/283192966847155/TextView

If someone gets sacked for gm I don't see how any money would be owed, unless it was owed gardening leave (could have been up to £150k) and maybe a gesture of a good will thanks for your work offer that rose above the final relationship. The gm was a solid case that Poyet would never have won...

That was probably withheld gardening leave pay that wouldn't be settled until after court action. The LMA would have advised him that heel loose if it went to court and could end up costing him tens of thousands in professional and court fees.

Gus’s argument was that the gross misconduct sounded worse than it was. I believe him with this, however there is such a wide spectrum of reasons that could destroy the employer/employee relationship, we would have dotted the I’s and crossed the t’s on the evidence. It would have been too much...

I can see us having a bit of good spirited banter with the Sunderland fans next season.

Devastating news.... ...............for Bridcutt and Buckley.
