Poyet says goodbye

[public school boy]

Thanks Gus. So close but yet so far.

 

[Footsoldier]

Glad to see the back of gus. Bloke is a total ****. Goodbye and and good ridance.

 

[Mellotron]

Should not have been allowed any contact with the players this close to the new season.

What?! They're not children...?

 

[Mellotron]

Cheers for a SUPERB 3 years Gus. Good luck.

Nice way to draw a line under events - a great 3 years for the Albion under Gus - anyone who bleats otherwise is just naive about the real world and lives in a candyfloss castle detached from reality by 100mg of DMT.

 

[Icy Gull]

A sad event for him I imagine

 

[watsongooal]

He will always be a legend in my eyes and no one on here knows the full story so no one should judge him or the events that happened. He very much managed this club from the bottom up and did a superb job to take us 90mins from Wembley and the Premiership.

 

[portslade seagull]

Loved him until it all went sour towards the end, don't begrudge him saying goodbye to the players though

 

[ward is god]

I was at the Amex earlier today and I noticed that Gus' poster on the legends wall has been replaced......with a new poster with the dates 2009-2013. Still a legend.

fair-a-****in-nough

Nope. Seems fair enough. I wonder whether Vicente flew back for the occasion?

 

[spring hall convert]

Should not have been allowed any contact with the players this close to the new season.

And how exactly are you going to enforce that? We don't live in North Korea

 

[B.W.]

Fair enough. Goodbye Gus. Thank you for 3 great seasons. Shame that your HUGE ego and mouth took over and spoilt the end of your reign. Now, stay away from court (for your own good).

 

[Return of the Rev]

Former Albion manager Gus Poyet has been back to Brighton to say farewell to his players and staff.

They attended a get-together arranged by Poyet at Cote restaurant opposite The Dome in Church Street on Tuesday.


I wonder if he got Oatway to order the food and then arrived just as the grub turned up?

 

[Uncle Spielberg]

Whatever way you slice it Poyet is in the top 2 managers BHAFC has ever had. Thanks for the memories Gus and good luck with the future.

 

[Squeakseagull]

Totally agree, very best of luck, Gus for your future and many thanks for so many good memories.

Probably took a big man to swallow his pride and arrange that private 'do'. Fair plays to GP, he didn't have to do it. Maybe this whole thing will turn out to be a blessing in disguise for him, he always seemed a decent enough bloke but there's no doubting his ego went into unhealthy overdrive at the Albion. A Summer of unemployment may actually have done him some good on that score. I'm sure it will have served as a wake-up call and we'll see him up and working again soon, albeit in a quieter way.

 

[Ernest]

He should have told the fans so we could have said goodbyes or is someone organising a dinner at Al Fornos for him ?

 

[Uncle Spielberg]

Hopefully Gus will just let it drop now and we can all move on, put this sorry affair behind us for the benefit of all parties.
