he mentioned the fact that other teams are "big" and have bigger budgets than us twice.

Commander said:

He's disrespecting us, he needs to stop ****ing moaning and appreciate he's got a fantastic job and a fantastic Chairman and he's lucky to have it, if he's not happy with the budget he should **** off to somewhere else that has a bigger one if he thinks he's so much better than little old Brighton.

Or was that only the correct response when Gus said it?

Goldstone1976 said:

Watched it maybe an hour ago, and I'd agree that it's worth a watch. Two things concerned me: when asked about transfers in to BHA, he didn't exude confidence that we're going to get anyone to replace Barnes (mind you, he doesn't give much away about any subject, even at the best of times); and he mentioned the fact that other teams are "big" and have bigger budgets than us twice. I just wondered if he's starting to get p*ssed off that he can't get who he wants..... just a thought.

The difference is that he's not threatening to sod off as the club aren't matching his ambition or even actually moaning about it at all just stating it as understated fact. But carry on defending the ego maniac and posting your poor attempts at wit if it helps you get over his loss.

If he says similar in pretty well every pre match press conference then yes. As we are in the middle of a transfer window and have lost two players that we haven't yet replaced, along with yet more untimely injuries then I'd expect him to make reference to our limitations. But carry on defending Gus' incessant whinging if it makes you feel better.

Commander said:

This 'ego maniac' thing really is odd. How many top players, managers, or even very successful people aren't 'ego maniacs'? Is Jose Mourinho a nice, modest, down to earth guy? How about SAF? Fabiola Capello?What about Brian Clough? These guys were all about themselves. Number 1. The boss. All about them.

It's a hard fact, but generally the most successful people on this world aren't particularly nice. Mainly because it's difficult to get that level of success of you are. So I really don't see what people's issue with Poyet being a bit of a cock was. Most top managers and players are. Russell Slade was a lovely guy, would you rather have him in charge?

Also, it took Poyet a lot longer than 6 months to start moaning about the budget. And as anyone with an ounce of sense knows, you always play down the budget you have. It's not going to help you much in transfer dealings if you come out and say "we're filthy rich, money is no object", is it?

I love Oscar's laid back and philosophical outlook. We are in good hands both on and off the pitch imo . From today's online Argus


“We obviously want to bring in some new faces, for me as soon as possible, but the club is working on a list of targets and we will see what we can do.

“I think it’s an important period. You can see most of the teams are signing players and we want to also but we have to think about a lot of things beforehand.”
