The email was pretty innocuous in and of itself. Who gives a shit what some marketing assistant gets her panties in a bunch about?. The clappers WERE shit. Gus did something heinous...oh yes.
Unless he can explain that comment, I might not let him post anywhere at all.

I think the next 12 mths is going to show us, that Poyet needed Brighton more then Brighton needed Poyet. Just he was the only one that couldn't see it. Didn't take long for him to start talking himself up again as a prem manager did it, based on quite what I'm not sure. Spending a fortune and falling out with everyone in the process I suppose......I have heard that the players are as happy as Larry at training again, so make of that what you will.........I know people will find this hard to believe but I really want Gus to get a prem job, I think it would make next season far more interesting for the prem neutral fan......He would be very foolish to drag this through the courts imo, as I suspect he will lose and all the time its ongoing, who's going to take a punt on him.....Come to think of it, I would think a lot of chairman will be thinking maybe they have dodged a bullet, with Gus.
Wayne Bridge: "Gus revitalised my love for football. He is a top-class manager both tactically and on the man-management side, one of the best I have worked with."
Eliott Bennett: “Hearing a lot of bad things about my former manager Gus Poyet, can only speak how I find but he is a top manager who helped me a lot!” When asked if Poyet struggled with man management, the star winger replied: “Not with me he didn't. Was excellent whole time I was at club.”
“I saw a lot of tweets and read quite bit of stuff in the paper that wasn’t very favourable to a manager I think is brilliant. I’ve got the utmost respect and admiration for the manager because he has been a massive part of why I’ve been able to play in the Premier League with Norwich. Brighton is a fantastic football club, Gus Poyet is a fantastic manager"
Gary Dicker: “I've had a great time here with the gaffer - and everybody really since day one. I can’t really put my finger on anything. I just think the day he walked in at this club he changed everything. He has made this club how it is today, how professional it is, how they have got everything right for the players. You look at the players he can attract to the club. In fairness, I don’t think most managers would have got them."
“When he speaks, you want to listen and you want to play for him. I think that is how he has got the best out of everyone. We went from a team in the relegation zone to a team winning the league and that doesn’t happen much in football. I think that proves what type of manager he is. He can get the best out of players straight away and he gets the respect of the players. I think that is massive. Everyone wants to play for him.”

As far as I'm concerned its over. The legal wrangling may well go on in the background, but we've now got our new manager in place, and the beginnings of a new team being assembled. The final knockings of Gus's heave ho will be a small paragraph on the inside pages of the sports papers.
Ha.

To be fair to him id heard exactly the same with the source originally coming directly from a player. Orlandi also confirms this in his new interview today.

I would love to see Poyet get a job as soon as possible, I truly would. But I fear the only chance he has of getting a premiership job, is buying a copy of Football Manager!I think the next 12 mths is going to show us, that Poyet needed Brighton more then Brighton needed Poyet. Just he was the only one that couldn't see it. Didn't take long for him to start talking himself up again as a prem manager did it, based on quite what I'm not sure.

ALso the line in the mirror story, "The 45-year-old, who still struggles to explain why he was sacked, is also determined to get straight back into management with his sights set on the Premier League." there is so much funny about that line, I've nearly wet myself laughing!

Stop bloody moaning!
This is getting boring now. Gus has gone and won't be coming back.
Get over it.
Get over it.

I'm not expecting anything particularly scandalous, if and when it all comes out.
Why do people think it should be? It might be something quite dull.

Interesting, every player you mention is no longer with us..Didn't exactly see a long list of current players signing his praises. They should ask, Dunk, Crofts, Cms, Lualua, Buckley and quite a few more and they will all probably say the usual, he was great etc etc. It's not a great career move to slag yourr manager off, or your employers. But then Poyet knows all about that now lol.

Orlandi wasn't here two years ago. Re-read the post you've quoted.

Think you need to re read it mate. The challenge was are the players loving training. The quote questioned the viability of that statement because of another claim about two years ago. I confirmed id heard the players are loving it.

Some more contradictions from Gus
Independent: “They can say whatever they like but I didn’t know they were going to sack me. “
Telegraph: "There is a difference between knowing you were going to be sacked and actually being told. I found out Brighton had sacked me live on television, I have evidence to prove that.
Independent: “I turned my phone off at 7.20pm and they were still negotiating”
They sent me an email telling me at 12 minutes to eight o’clock and then released the news on their website at 8pm."
Though It is clear on the club website that the club statement was released at 19:14 Club Statement Pretty sure that Gus and the LMA would have received his dismissal notice at 19:00, prior to the 19:14 Club Statement.

Point of fact: The club statement was released at 2000hrs not at 1914hrs as stated on the website. This can be confirmed by the clubs, Andy Naylor etc.. twitter timeline.
