    The nature if his acrimonious exit from BHA has coloured a lot of views, and led to an awful lot of rewriting of history from some fans here.

    IMO he is a BRILLIANT manager, who pulled this club up by its bootstraps at a time when we were a joke. We won L1 with such style and panache, without throwing money at it. Some of my greatest memories in 30-odd years of being a BHA fan was courtesy of Gus. I left the game at Charlton with an erection.

    He's a maverick walking rollercoaster who shoots from the lip, but I think he'd be an excellent appointment for Swansea.
    I do kind of understand this point of view.

    But...What would you say are the chances that it will all end in tears wherever he goes, ever? Because I have them at around 100%, give or take 0%.

      This would be hilarious.
      Anyone recall when Leon Knight went to Swansea? This will be like that, but in managerial form.
      Leon Knight at Swansea: played: 25 scored 19 and they still got rid. That man was a menace to himself.

      It's a real shame that people like him are gifted a talent at birth and waste it. I know most footballers aren't the most intelligent type on this planet but what a waste to give him something we can only dream of.

      Swansea are so short of money the only reason they're looking at him apparently is because that way they don't have to get new tracksuits, etc. They can still use last season's ones with the GP initials.

      At the end of the day, the guy is a bit of a s**t but he's one of our greatest managers ever (best in my lifetime imo). His career has been a bit weird post-Sunderland but I don't doubt he'd be a superb appointment for a Championship club, money or not.

      To be fair, if it wasn't for Gus' "issues" then he probably would be better than Hughton. He probably would have taken us to the Premier League.

      His ability is why he continually lands decent jobs, but his "issues" are why he ultimately gets sacked at every one on them.

      There might be a lucky club that catches him at the right time in his life where he has calmed down or finally learned from his mistakes... but I doubt it, it's in his nature.

      And if my auntie had balls she’d be my uncle!

      CH 10x the manager (and man) than Gus
