Didn't expect Sunderland to have any chance of staying up a few weeks ago. Now I sort of hope they do. Bygones and all that.

I support anyone doing United over.

Our season finishing in the play offs again has sort of helped mellow my disposition towards old Gus. Good luck to them I say. It would be some feat to get them out of the mess they were in, and right now it's in their hands to do it.

Sunderland are pretty much safe now even if the lose their last 2 games as Norwich are unlikely to get more than 2 points from their last 2 games. Before Poyet, 7 games 1 point, after Poyet 29 games, 34 points.

If you had have said last November when both Palace and Sunderland were adrift on 7 points each they would both stay up you'd have been carted off to the funny farm

Being touted as manager of the season by the pundits on 606. He has turned it around in the last month, no argument there from me.

I was rather hoping for a Gus free day.

Are his achievements at Sunderland remarkable? Possibly. They may well have been underperforming before that and, unlike Di Canio, he felt best to massage a few egos.

Am I grateful as to what he did for the club? Yes.

Would I boo him if we crossed swords again? Probably. He hasn't exactly endeared himself to the club since his departure. I reckon he thinks he is the best thing to happen to our club. He's not.

That said, I am delighted for him as I once loved him and it's not easy to get over a love.

Always said Gus would keep them up. Palace the same since Pullis..

Meh.

Concentrating on my team. Oscar has got us into the Play Offs, same as last season. Result!

Nothing more will happen. There was that whole West Ham/Sheffield United thing a few years ago, no points were deducted over that.

Fair play to GP

He left us under a cloud, but that's football

Be good to lock horns with him in the Prem next season

manager of the month maybe, not a serious contender for the season. thats going to Rodgers with Pulis an outside chance (cant seeing it going to non "big club" unless they made europe)

Good on Gus and his team. I feel really happy for them.

I REALLY WISH A LOT OF IMBECILES ON THIS SITE WOULD JUST LET BYGONES BE BYGONES AND APPRECIATE WHAT GUS DID FOR US AND HAS DONE FOR SUNDERLAND. A big Well Done is merited.

There are times to be critical and times to give credit - today has been the latter!
