Not sure of odds but seems a good fit to me. Thoughts?

Hope so, he'd drop his legal case pretty quick, and we can then spend the potential payoff cash on a striker.

Why would Sunderland want too swap one egotistical prick for another?

This, although I wouldn't put it so colourfully!!! They gambled on Di Canio with no premiership track record so why would they risk it on Poyet as well?

Poyet has Championship record- play offs. Di Canio did not get that far.

Fulham would suit him. Sunderland would be a one way trip to the championship. We would however be at high risk of losing some key players to his new side in the next transfer window.

I think it's a reasonable possibility. Gus may have been a tad moody at times but he was no mad villainous type like Di Canio. His slightly-smothered ego would re-emerge with a good run in charge again for a spell and funds that wouldn't match his ambition and wish for guaranteed glory, but i think his ball-playing ethos would charm a good number of their fans just as it rightly did us. Tough to beat and looking to outdo oppositions in possession percentages wouldn't be bad for a side horrendously unsettled by the doings of its now-departed extremist.
