I f***ing love GUS POYET, the man is a god, he has got us playing the best football we gave ever played and yet people slate him
Better than Mullery or others around that time?

There has been so much crap on here following recent performances and I wont disagree that I am any less dis-appointed as the next but, whilst being realistic, Gus Poyet's brand of football is good to watch and was totally successful in winning the League 1 title last season. It is the way forward and from what he has said, he won't change that (Hooray), and will attempt to resolve any problems.
He has made some important acquisitions during the closed season and, subsequently if needs be, will resolve by the acquisition of new players (in due course).
I really wish that on NSC we could be somewhat more patient as, like many, I would have settled for a mid table position in this our first incursion for some years into the Championship.
One can only hope that our injury situation will improve in the near future.
What else can any reasonable person say - 'Keep the Faith'
Just out of interest, is anyone NOT behind Gus right now?
Like the majority I'm 100% behind Gus. Whilst I think the injury crisis has had an effect in recent games, the biggest problem this season has been coping with the loss of our 3 best players from last season. Too many on here mention we were champions last season without recognising a third of that team has been missing this season. El-Abd was player of the season and whilst Dunky and Greer have done well they do not have Adam's physical presence. One look at how many assists Benno had last season tell's you everything and whilst Nooney has been good his final ball is letting him down. Whatever people say about Murray we have not replaced him (Paynter is not a patch on him) or his goals & hold up play from last season - simples!!! So let's try and be realistic about our aims this season.
You can't be, you're dead!
No you are so, so wrong. I am sure you sit there in your ivory tower, much like Sir Gus lapping up all the loveliness heaped on the manager when times are good. GP loves being loved and when he is doing well or even marginally well he will be given all the love and praise he deserves. Even in this time of dire desperation I have yet to see someone say he should be sacked. But please get some perspective. If he is having a mare then the supporters that pay to watch our great team have every right to criticism. I suggest if you cannot handle the criticism that you roll yourself up in cotton wool and go into hibernation. The supporters have an investment in this club, the manager is paid that investment and will move on, whether because he is poor or to richer grounds. I criticised our hugely poor performance v West Ham in a constructive way and a few more did to. We got shouted down by the moaners of the moaners. Some of those telling us to get a grip are now surprisingly, one game later, seeing what we had to say and putting in their own criticism. Until BHAFC becomes a totalitarian organisation I shall reserve my right to constructive criticism. And if you want to complain about it I suggest you find somewhere new to play.
Yawn.
This is more than a blip. Unfortunately the performances have been getting worse. How many of the 9 games without a win have you been too? I have been to all 9. The time for a few songs at the Amex & blind 'in Gus we trust' have passed. We will be bottom 3 by the end of the month, or close to it if we can fluke one win in November.
Yes I will be at Southampton & Derby. At least the trip to the Broadfield next year is not too far away!
I stated in earlier posts that I believe in Gus if I don't always agree with him.
But I am astounded by some of the comments suggesting that Gus is on rocky ground.
Let's not forget how far we have come in recent years.2 years ago we were fighting relegation into league 2.
Totally agree but just one observation, there are two massive differences between 2 years ago and now.
1). New stadium.
2). Massive investment by the Board.
Gus has the backing of the board (5 year contract) and the fans, however this is his first sticky patch and now he needs to prove his worth.
He's got our support end of!
I have yet to see someone say he should be sacked
