    This is the most sensible post and properly as near to the truth as we are going to get for a few years.

    Sunderland announcement today,,,

    He could have done, if both sides agreed to cancel the contract. The club sacked him and still did not get any money, so what's the difference. I would have to take your word for us being ill-prepared for the second leg, as the club have not said that officially Gus was responsible for us not...

    Sunderland announcement today,,,

    Being in the right, and doing what is best for the club do not always go together. The impact of this is still being felt and if Gus continues to pursue this through the courts, then it is likely to rumble on for years. Do not know how Gus would look the victim if he was allowed to walk away? We...

    It would make sense if the club had already decided they wanted Oscar! Other clubs were also interested in him.

    I meant let him go, not pay off the rest of his contract.

    Sunderland announcement today,,,

    That's the point, he sacked him and has not paid him, if Gus had walked, the result would have been the same. The only difference is one took a few months and has had an impact on preseason and is still impacting. If Gus had walked, we could have someone in within weeks and they might have had a...

    Football is not like that anymore. If Gus wanted to walk, I am sure he could have done. None of us know what the small print in his contract was. Companies sack people all the time for Gross misconduct and just because they do, does not mean that it's always lawful, people do win cases for...

    I do not say he is blameless, however the question has to be asked. Was this all worth it and would we be in a better position now if we had just paid him off or let him walk away and got Oscar in earlier.

    Sunderland announcement today,,,

    I will tell you what I am saying. You are blaming Gus for us not getting to the play off final and about the way the season ended. What I do know is that he asked to leave in March, on the field we had a great finish to the season and finished well. Gus could not have done anymore then he did...

    Sunderland announcement today,,,

    We do not know what happened at the end of last season, as for the game, the players have to take a lot of responsibility for the poor performance, they just did not want it enough and Palace did. If he comes after our players then I would hope we could get as much as we can for them.
