Clear The Air Meeting Today

[Thunder Bolt]

Do we really know that's spoke to Reading? I thought Charlie said it didn't happen, and wasn't Gus in Barbados at the time?

Tanno also said, no disrespect but it was only Reading. It's still on Seagulls Player for those that care to check it out.

 

[glasfryn]

It could be a deliberate leak. Get it leaked on here so it's debated for a couple days and people are used to the idea by the time it's officially announced.

All you have to do is pick someone you know will blab, and bingo.

 

[Thunder Bolt]

Seriously, how do you draw that conclusion you deluded idiot?

I usually find that when posters resort to being rude to others, it's because they're losing the argument.

 

[vegster]

Given that he's only suspended, would Gus be allowed to even apply? Gus is still under contract, so surely would need permission to talk to Stoke (or whoever else)?

Yes, it would certainly muddy the already muddy waters. I'm just shocked that Mark Hughes would ever be employed by a football club again !

A manager that doesn't want to be here but is in contract so can't leave.

A chairman that doesn't want the manager anymore but can't end his contract without compensation as he hasn't done anything serious enough for dismissal.

End result = everyone is snookered and has no alternative but to begrudgingly agree to continue until a club comes in for Gus who is prepared to buy him out of his contract.

BHAFC limps on until this happens.

Why anyone would want this scenario to happen is beyond me but IMO this is what is most likely.

Or they're just bored with getting stick for revealing what they know...

It appears that he has, the retained list is a major part of his duties. IF he, then The Argie, then Oatway all refused to address it, they will have breached their contracts.

You were hardly getting stick. Westdene & Commander were debating their opinions well.

Hardly...

How reliable is this twitter feed then?

Hopefully the OP is telling the truth, imo this would be the ideal scenario, but have a feeling it is a little too good to be true.

Time will tell.

I've just read another thread quoting this tweet and apparently it is quite unreliable.
Sorry.

You didnt mention all of it, assistant now manager in waiting for when The Special One leaves, which would be a major factor in any decision he made but I dont believe it as why put his house up for sale. I believe that he had earmarked either Newcastle or possibly Malaga as a future opening or him.

I didn't quote it because that site is usually full of absolute nonsense. But if anyone is interested, here is what it says:

Gus Poyet Manager of Brighton and Hove Albion was suspended over talks with Jose Mourinho to become Assistant Manager/Manager in waiting at Chelsea FC. Roman Abramovich has masterminded this plan as he looks for some stability in the future.

In an ironic twist it also seems that Roberto di Matteo looks set to take over from Gus at Brighton after a website reveal shows Roberto as manager.

Tony Bloom and Brighton and Hove Albion will recieve the compensation from Gus' Contract, but part of the deal will see promising young talent of Marko Marin and Gael Kakuta go out on loan to BHA.

There's a post on the Football Rumours site (today's 'big reveal' apparently) that Gus was suspended for having talks with Chelsea about becoming Mourinho's assistant. Why would he want to be an assistant anywhere?

Poyet would be assistant Pan Sniffer, if it meant being anywhere near Stamford Bridge.

If that was the case he would have been sacked. He wasn't, he was suspended, so presumably not considered serious enough for breach of contract.

 

[Westdene Seagull]

Hardly...

If you claim with such certainty to know something then you should at least expect to get challenged to prove it.

I think whoever came up with that lot has either taken far more drugs than is healthy, is a comic genius, or possibly both.

Now that would be an excellent conclusion to the situation.

Of all the c**p I have read on here in the last 2 weeks this actually seems possible!

Treating this from a business angle rather than as Planet Football; returning is entirely possible. A proper airing of grievances, appropriately made apologies (so quite possibly not in the open depending on what lead to the issue in the first place) and a promise to change (e.g. shut up about managing other clubs / Suarez / the budget / whatever cause the issue) have often seen people back in a job after a suspension. Albeit not often staying there for long!

OK, how would you suggest I prove it?

 

[Lord Bracknell]

Just a thought - but why on earth would TB tell all this to your work colleague, especially as some people are suspended pending an investigation and everyone has obviously been told to keep schtum until some kind of resolution is reached? Do you really think he would be discussing this in detail with anyone apart the other parties involved and his lawyers?

TB isn't the only member of the Bloom family. Not all of them are masters of discretion.
