No matter what you think of him he's done great things for us and didnt deserve that. Shocker.
Didn't deserve that at all

Yes he does! His comments after the Palarse game were a disgrace!
Yes, he did a good job for us, that is undeniable. But how do you know he "didn't deserve" to be sacked?

Hardly a disgrace. For all the good work he's done for us I don't think sacking him in this way is the best way to go about it. Makes us look like unprofessional employers, decent replacements may think twice and what player would want to come and play for what will be a circus this summer?

Not saying he didn't deserve to be sacked. I was expecting it. Wrong way to go about it though.

Obviously didn't hear his interview after the Palace game then.
I think it's ****ing hilarious.

Ill-judged, poorly timed and horrendously worded yes, but a disgrace? No, not quite. We'd just got done by a team playing much better than us on the night and, heat of the moment, he said something I suspect he regretted fairly quickly afterwards.
As it is, we still don't know why he got removed (probably never will), though it seems pretty clear that since this started him coming back would be an unlikely scenario. Sad way for it all to end.

Unwell but still smiling
Check the first line of the club statement, Gus was told during the day today, not by the BBC!

My heart bleeds not. How many times we put up with his behavior about wanting to join any prem club that drops their knickers and then treats us like fools. Well it looks like the egg has finally landed on his face lol

What Gus said after Palace was wrong, wrong, wrong but, in his defence, he could argue that it was said in the heat of the moment, a very emotional moment.
This was cold blooded. A statement releaced on a Sunday evening and whilst he is live on national TV, why? I think it's a disgraceful way to act.

Until the club confirm he didn't know anything I am afraid I find it very hard to beleive Poyet. The club no doubt informed him or his people earlier and told him an announcement would be made tonight and he happens to be on TV. Why should the club delay more just because he has lined up some TV work? Sorry I don't beleive a word he says.

That's what I've always thought. Wrong words, ill-timed, but said in the heat of the moment. I just shrugged it off really. It hardly undermined everything he had achieved at the club in 3 1/2 years.

Is this why he has been sacked? Do you know because no one else does? I would suggest it goes alot deeper then this!
