**official friday big announcement thread**

[Albion Dan]

this has become a farce

Sounds like Poyet still taking the google. The better that cancer is out of our club the better.

 

[WhingForPresident]

Wonder if this is another example of the dictator disregarding authority to go off and do whatever he fancies..

 

[RowleyBirkinQ.C(deceased)]

According to @NickSzczepanik on twitter, no news today Gus is out the country still. Meeting Monday now.

Edit:- whoops I'm a tad slow - fixtures

 

[HawkTheSeagull]

Think people might be jumping to conclusions here.

Just because he is out the country, doesnt mean something cant happen. He might have already spoke with TB and the investigation could still be wrapped up today without him.

Him being out the country changes absolutely nothing, perhaps he has gone to escape media attention IF something happens.

I don't know, but I presume the only decision the club could make under its own disciplinary procedures - without Poyet being present to state his case - would be to drop any charges and lift his suspension.

Nice one. You must pretty proud of that.

He's actually a Scorpio.

 

[Not Andy Naylor]

Even if Poyet had been present today, would a decision have been reached and made public immediately? More likely an announcement would have come early next week, I'd have thought.

Lovely. You know nothing about what is happening yet describe him as a "cancer".

You'd imagine Poyet's had his opportunity to present his case and today is possibly when the club's decision is revealed. He doesn't need to be present, necessarily.

I can stop wearing out the F5 button now and actually do somework.

i'm pretty sure that the news is the TBC for the sat home friendly

from club email recieved 18.20 last night :

Albion will play the first of these two home pre-season friendly matches on Saturday 27th July (opponents tbc later this week) before Premier League Norwich City visit the Amex on Tuesday 30th July, kick-off 7.45pm, for the final friendly ahead of the Championship season which kicks off on the weekend of August 3rd.


incidently - how come we have managed to double the number of home friendlies this year ? council license changes ?

 

[Seagulltonian]

Well, if he's in Wigan, is that classed as being out the country??

 

[HawkTheSeagull]

This - much like a court, the defendant doesnt always need to be present.

I cannot believe they referred to the Norwich game as a "showpiece friendly" in the e-mail they sent out yesterday, the day after managing to spell "guarantee" incorrectly.

Disgusting.

We had 2 home friendlies last year - Chelsea and Reading (FDMs Testimonial).

 

[Albion Dan]

Disgusting.

I agree. Poyets behaviour is exactly what you've described.

 

[Bra]

This is going to rumble on forever! If gus was scheduled to appear today and chose to continue his holiday the club could continue in his absence, although I doubt they will given the time already taken. Seriously you would assume both parties want it resolved, although it is more damaging to the club long run and I guess gus knows that.

We had two home friendlies last season - Reading and Chelsea.
