Maybe we get Poyet when Adkins leave? Is this possible?
In todays NOTW he says he would be prepared to stay for a very long time with us in The Premiership like Wenger and Ferguson, provided we are improving and want him. In a seperate article I read that he is wanting to move his family to Brighton and is looking for a house, whichj looks good for us with all the probable speculation if we do well next season.

TBH you are always going to prefer your own manager. I think Poyet is a decent manager and well played for getting the very best out of your squad. Will be interesting to see how he fares with different styles next year. There is a niggly unpleasant side to Gus which from what I have seen of Brighton can sometimes transfer to their players. It's not something which particularly appeals to me and not necessarily something I would want at my club (and probably not the Liebherr family to be honest) but hey it's effective in its own way and different people will have differing opinions on that.

What is the point of this thread? I mean, why would you even think about contemplating such a choice - or is it something you do with each of the opposition managers after every game?
