[h=3]ARGUS COMMENT: Sort this out now[/h]9:29am Wednesday 19th June 2013 in Albion
Gus Poyet
COMMENT
ENOUGH is enough.
The time has come for a decision to be made on the future of Albion manager Gus Poyet.
It is now almost five weeks since Poyet was suspended by the club.
The Seagulls have completed a detailed investigation into alleged breaches of contract and Poyet is finally due to attend a disciplinary hearing tomorrow.
The suspension saga has descended into farce this week with claim and counter-claim about the hearing process and Albion at war with the League Managers Association.
It has all become very messy, nasty, undignified and damaging, both for the club and Poyet.
The fixtures are out today and the players report back on Monday. Surely we will know by then who the manager is?
Albion are already playing catch-up. Adam El-Abd and David have been offered new deals but who cam blame them, or potential new signings, for wanting to find out first who they will be playing for?
It will not be Poyet. The conflict between the club and manager runs far too deep for that to be an option.
As things stand, the sorry saga appears to be heading only one way – a battle through the courts which would prolong the agony and see Albion and Poyet airing each other’s dirty laundry in public.
Unless common sense prevails, the squabbling ends and they thrash out a solution which allows both sides to move on.
