bloom interview

[W.C.]

He needs a haircut. Those arty shots of cuffs and fingers twiddling pens were annoying.

Good to hear from him though. Get us a nice shiny new manager Tone!

 

[COYP]

My dear late Grandfather used to believe whichever account of a news event he heard last. The Times would tell him X so he would adamantly believe X. The ITV news would then tell him Y so he'd forget X and believe Y. Then he would read the Star and Debbie 21, Littlehampton would tell him Z so he would definitely wholeheartedly believe Z.

Brighton fans seem similar to the old gentleman. The Beeb and Poyet say he didn't know so they believe he didn't know. Then the club puts out a cackhanded statement suggesting but not very clearly clarifying that he knew so some believe he knew and scream the club statement proves he's a liar. Others argue about semantics and say it proves he didn't know. Then Tony Bloom puts out a prescripted interview that says very little but says 'impending' rather than 'pending' so Brighton fans know for sure and want to lynch the most successful manager in their recent history.

No questioning at all of Bloom despite the varying accounts because 'well its big tone he wouldn't tell us porkies would he?'
Now personally I have no idea who's in the wrong. I have no idea why Poyet was suspended. I have no idea why he was subsequently sacked. Nor do I have any idea whether he was aware that he'd been sacked at the time or not but one thing I've learnt from 2010, the orange man, the idiot and mr burns is that you never completely trust your owners because the fact is they do lie.

Oh get over your self palace scumers believe every word Parrish feeds you.

How's that new ground coming along?

 

[Brixtaan]

It's very odd on here tonight considering the meltdown last evening. Those that blindly believed the utterances of Poyet appear to be rather quiet. Is that due to the statements from the club? or the full backing of those statements from the main man, I wonder. It is obvious that right from the start Bloom has been on top of the situation. His highly paid CEO has been the one who has been taking the flack and rightly so in his position, but it now plain to all that this was directed from the very top. Bloom gave concise "planned" answers, ones that were unambiguous unlike the Poyet's interview. Poyet has met more than his match. The contempt shown to the reporting of the situation by the BBC and others does show to those that matter that the club is in very good hands.






Unlike some posters I believe that the way Brighton have handled this enhances their profile as a club that will not be afraid of making difficult decisions but at the same time expects those contracted to the club to fully respect their employment. Contracts work both ways, too often it is shown to be a worthless document. Touting oneself as obviously as Poyet did, brought him in to disrepute every time he spoke, it's disrespectful at best. I believe Bloom decided to take the moral high ground and Poyet in his actions allowed him to do so.

To me the only unanswered (not asked) question (for obvious reasons) was "Was Tanno at work today?"

Thanks Piltdown, the sort of stuff i want to be reading

Talking sense isn't allowed here did you not know?

Some very good points, well put.

Despite my efforts to understand why on earth a supporter would post over 200 times on clubs forum one doesn't support, that is good advice.

Now that's what you call a family club. Tone being interviewed by a STH

Anyone who talks about Brighton fans as all being of one mind is a fool.

Some of the fans who unquestioningly believe the club have said something similar, but only when gus's side speak, not when the club do...

Usual Palace fan MO of trying to undermine Tony.

2015 for your first new stand to be built is it? I guess from your comments you don't trust your board to even submit the plans

 

[piersa]

Help what did he say as bloody Apple won't run Flash!

He said, you knew apple guff wouldn't run Flash, so why did you buy it you cabbage.

If that is you in the picture, you should be more worried about your health than our club.

 

[B.W.]

He hasn't..'stepped in'. It was a choreographed two prong attack from the club. Open letter from Barber...and then the big one....The chairmans video . All is right in the world, and we can sleep easily tonight .
They are,of course, papering over the cracks. What happens if Gus wins his appeal ?..... It could happen , who knows..and then what. Our chairman was very careful with his words.

There is very little chance Gus will win his appeal, heard by the club. Legal action may follow.

 

[Worthai Seagull]

Blimey. Good news though !

 

[B.W.]

Perhaps you can remind me, but I don't recall Gus ever whinging about his budget until the interview after the Palace game.He did regularly point out that we were overachieving and doing well to compete with clubs with larger budgets, but that was true, and I always attributed it as him trying to counter the fans who kept going on that he 'had a top-2 squad' and was failing. Evidently TB thought the same too, guess time will tell.

No. He constantly moaned about his generous budget, but I guess that fact doesn't suit your agenda?

 

[B.W.]

I love the way the pro-Gus lobby are now so desperate they seek solace in the ramblings of a Palace fan. Trust Tony yrs, trust the Palace board no.

 

[Seagull Steve]

I make no apologies, but I loved Gus and like most I am sad at how this all ended. But with the amount of money TB has thrown at this club, he is not about to see his club go tits up, by not dealing with this whole sorry episode with anything less than total professionalism. Managers come and go, but TB is in it for the long run. Like us, his blood runs blue and white. We can trust him and Barber have done it all right, as anything less would see Gus nailing their danglers to the wall. I for one can't see Tony letting that happen.
