Gus Poyet has blasted Stoke for unsettling two of his Sunderland stars.

[AZ Gull]

After his comments about Stoke is this a case of the Poyet calling the kettle black?

And has the kettle started crying like a baby?

 

[sydney]

Was that a misspelled attempt at a racial slur?

it was a deliberate avoidance of a racial slur but very close to one , just to keep myself out of trouble like..........have lost a lot of respect for Poyet , he is the centre of the cosmos as far as he's concerned. as others have said ......good manager but a hypocrite.

Not so sure - I've seen the way some people look at bread.....

Very difficult to move on when the most ego-centric, damaging and disgraceful behaviour by a manager in our history scuppered our very good chances of getting PL football. He wasn't bothered, he wanted out and was pulling every stunt in the book to discredit our club and protect his reputation.
It will continue to stick in the throat of many on here, when we read other posters lauding him on here and calling him our greatest ever manager and they'd have him back in a shot.
He tarnished his reputation here and should never be forgiven for trying to hold the club we love to ransom. The man is an ******** and most unknowing neutrals wallow in his ocean of self-publicity.
I shall never forgive or forget his attitude to our club. A club that always backed him, put him on the managerial ladder and then found itself shat upon.

I'm with you Mo. Suspect Creaky is a CP fan judging by the address and comments!

I notice all the Bridcutt shouldn't go to Sunderland as they aren't going to be a Premier League club talk has gone a bit quiet. Poyet didn't need to turn Bridcutt. I'm assuming the chance to at least double his money, sign a long term contract at a bigger PREMIER LEAGUE club may well have done that.

Some of you are utterly obsessed with our ex-manager, it's unhealthy. He's moved on, you should too.

It is a forum where we debate stuff and I am so glad we don't all agree.
I still look forward to seeing his head pop again when things don't go the way he wants it. As for bridcutt I liked the footballer and I am sure he will do well, hopefully not with Sunderland thou.

Unfortunately a club that also made one of the biggest PR boobs by sacking GP whilst he was live on TV, suspended two of his staff, (one patently without any good reason as they later reinstated him), and one of whom was in his 'benefit year' thus depriving AITC of a big payday.

Neither 'side' came out of that sad episode with glory

He wasn't sacked live on air, he and his lawyers knew about it before that little charade of his on telly. Do you know the full reasons for Taricco's suspension? I seriously doubt it. Few if none of us do so quite how you can make such a definite statement about it is a little puzzling (actually it's not - you've an awful lot of form in a very short time here for assuming the worst in the current board).

Oatway's arrangement with the AITC was between him and the charity. As I understand it anyway, Oatway was compensated for the estimated benefit year income by the club as part of a settlement package.

The club did make several PR gaffes and no-one came out of it with glory but then again that was always going to be the case. It really is time for everyone to move on regarding Poyet's sacking - including those who still use it as a stick to beat the current board.

That was my thoughts as well !

Little tip - if ever you are in a quiz, choose 'talking bollocks on the internet' over 'employment law'

Sunderland is as much a stopping point on the Poyet journey as Brighton was. It's a shame but to use a horribly overused phrase "that's modern football."

concerning the 'sacked on telly' business, I think it was the BBC who span that nice little story for themselves.
