Believe what you will. If the club lied, he'll sue them. He won't because they didn't.

I wasn't embarrassed when we have been relegated.
I wasn't embarrassed after the cup final Replay.
I wasn't embarrassed when we were plastered over the papers for stopping games and breaking goalposts.
I wasn't embarrassed playing at Withdean.
I wasn't embarrassed being 2 points adrift at the bottom of the football league.
I wasn't embarrassed being stuck in Selhurst after losing 5-0.
I have never been embarrassed supporting Brighton......
........until now

1. Well done the club. Gutsy call to bin him the day before the players return, but very necessary.
2. I don't have a problem with the public manner of this dismissal. He's a media whore - seems poetic to me.
3. I'm a bit concerned by this 'interim manager' bollocks. Get OGJ in asap. Chelsea and Spurs have both played hardball with managers in recent times and it's paid off.

What is your problem, seriously? The club made a written statement saying that he was informed. He was asked an informal question about it on BBC, to which he gave a vague answer.
One can be authenticated by scrutiny. The other cannot.
And why on earth would you believe him over the club?!
The club don't need to disprove his claim. They just need to win the appeal procedure. I don't believe he'll appeal though.

Nope. De Sousa
Why appeal a job you don't want? If he appeals it will be about clearing his name for future jobs (though that's probably to necessary, if lee Hughes, marlon king and that Plymouth keeper can get jobs, so can gus) and getting any pay he would be due if sacked without reason. But to appeal he'd have to go through the motion of acting like he wants it, much like the interim manager is about acting as if it is open for him.
the appeal will be to other directors of the club not involved in the original hearing.
it is likely he will lose that since it is a review of evidence already seen and anything new gus can add. if he loses that he can go to court and probably will but that will be about money.

So the club have taken a month to make a decision and then choose to communicate it at a time when Poyet has an immediate opportunity to colour the whole issue in his favour on live television. In the meantime the fans still don't know why he was suspended in the first place and the club cannot approach a new manager because Poyet wants to appeal.
Shambles.
Shambles.
money mate - if he wins the appeal I would imagine club would have to pay his contract off.
