As I posted elsewhere. There was no need to send a text when B&B knew he was on BBC 3. Chronic misjudgement and one that seriously undermines the credibility of the the club and also saddens me immensely. Termination of contract should always be on a one on one conversation basis.

For those Albion supporters who think it OK to sack Gus that way, just think of how you would react if the Sarf Lundin Scum did their business that way!

Thanks Gus for all you have done for this club, all the best for the future.

That's what I've always thought. Wrong words, ill-timed, but said in the heat of the moment. I just shrugged it off really. It hardly undermined everything he had achieved at the club in 3 1/2 years.

Of course it doesn't undermine the MASSIVE amount he did for the club. You'd only think it did if you we're a f***ing SPANNER. Unfortunately we seem to have plenty.

What's with all this last 3 and a half years pony,
Do you think Les Dennis was thinking about all the lovely cups of tea Amanda Holden had made in the past when she was blowing Neil Morriseys fleshy flute?
No,of course He wasn't .

I know Albion fans have a hard time considering the possibility that Gus has been badly treated by the board - but this disgraceful treatment of Gus live on TV underlines this possibility.

I don't think it would be fair to sack anyone live on TV, but even more so because its someone who has done so much for the club.
But you are believing everything Poyets tells you. Do you really think his representatives did not know. In law can the club even make the decision public, without informing the lawyers of the accused first?

Did Poyet have to discuss it?

If such a huge decision was imminent, would you question whether Poyet was right to go on TV?

Do you know that the club never called him and his lawyers in to deliever the verdict in person, but he refused and went on TV instead?

How can you criticise the board without knowing the days events?

So do you know the exact time GUS was informed ?

Someone at the club needs sacking, the press are jumping on this and making us look pathetic. Whoever thinks it was great timing is a complete tool.

He wasn't informed at all. He wouldn't lie about "receiving no calls, no texts, no messages, no anything" live on TV when the club could prove in court that he did.

We got the news before him - and he heard from the BBC.
And it's never crossed you're mind, that is the exact reason why the club announced it when they did?

There is no reasoning with you fella! I would think that in days to come you may find out that Poyet did know before hand (he will say his people knew but he didn't) and the reasons for his sacking. Personally Gus did great for us but he has obviously done some stupid things behind the scenes and I am glad this decision has now been made and we can move on. I wouldn't believe a word Gus said tonight on TV and await the actual truth to come out!

Hardly a disgrace. For all the good work he's done for us I don't think sacking him in this way is the best way to go about it. Makes us look like unprofessional employers, decent replacements may think twice and what player would want to come and play for what will be a circus this summer?

So you must know exactly what went on behind the scenes then.

Fill us in please as a lot of us don't know.

be very strange for a FC to go down this path if everything was going well wouldn't you say?
