Poyets contract

[SI 4 BHA]

I'm not sure about the length of contract he should be offered tbh - or indeed what he would want. The thing is, he knows his continued presence is universally & mahoosively appreciated at our club: & a big contract isn't gonna stop him going elsewhere if & when he wants off (or a one of the really big clubs comes a knocking).

If we assume he will be successful here, and that he will be off to somewhere bigger in the future, then a longer contract makes sense so we get good compensation when he eventually leaves.

Yep, that's a jolly good point there hon.

ps Bearing in mind Gus has just said he wants a 3-4 year deal, I reckon that's what he should get (& I've absolutely no doubt he'll get it). Great deal all round innit.

i think he should get the contract he wants and now, if we piss about he might go elsewhere.

he's obviously not short of a few bob so idon't think his demands are money driven, he's a family man so he probable just wants a bit of security in his job before he drags them away from orpington.

Its a long way down

1 YEAR ROLLING

For everyone saying give him as long as he wants, just look at the Liverpool and Rafa saga which is a complete farce

Yeah but that was LAUGHABLE when it was awarded. Rafa´s a joke of a manager. Gus isn´t.

To compare Gus (hallowed be thye name) to that fricking bearded amigo is wrong. Don't do it.

 

[mcshane in the 79th]

I'm not comparing Gus to Rafa, just the situation. I don't see how a good 6 months qualifies a league one club, who have a distinct habit of getting through managers pretty quickly, to give someone a ridicously long contract. It would be nothing short of foolish and is exactly how clubs end up in the shit

 

[Rookie]

2 or 3 year contract gives us security and a fair bit of compo should he poached by another team but it was would also lead to a hefty settlement should the need to get rid ever arise. Its a difficult one but think Bloom will give him another 2 years on top of the year left so he can implement change at the club and get it running just the way he wants

 

[Caveman]

When saying he should get as long as he wants, I meant within reason... i.e. 3 or 4 years. Certainly not 10 like someone suggested.

Looking at the last 4 months, we've only lost 4 games. Gus is the man to take us forward!
