Gus Poyet - right or wrong?

[CHAPPERS]

Hmmm, important and interesting thread derailed into some shit about Man United.

Well done chaps.

 

[WhingForPresident]

why do you guys time after time look down on others with emphasis on their location. Are you claiming that fans who arent from Manchester are less worth? Because thats the pattern I see from several posts aimed towards me.

Yes.

 

[South Coast Eagle]

That sums you up nicely. Shiteforbrains.

keep up with that attitude and surely you'll get another 110 years of winning f*** all

I'm aware of that, you're still massively in debt though and operating at unsustainable levels. Same problem Barca has, wages in football at the top level are insane.

That's not true though. United although in debt are very profitable as a business and can support the interest payments required through self generated income and without the help of any sugar daddy.

Wages are insane and ticket prices are steep but we are profitable and totally self funded

can i just ask someone to highlight the part of the interview in which gus was racist i cant seem to find it anywhere

 

[Tooting Gull]

Surely this is all about context. Is anyone seriously believing that Suarez meant the comment as anything but an insult after they had been kicking lumps out of each other two seconds before?

No. But what I am suggesting is that what he said, in his own culture, was maybe not AS offensive. And degree of offence is what this will come down to in the end. I doubt you will ever have seen so many cunning linguists involved in an FA charge.

This thread adequately demonstrates the need for an Away End on NSC.

Some of the bollocks written on here by or new friends from Surrey is astonishing.

Or I could just latch on to a "big club" like you and bask in the reflected glory eh ?

And all from the comfort of my sofa.

The racism storm continues...

BBC News - Worcester footballer Lee Smith in probe

"Leave it, leave it, e's not wurf it!"

ANYWAY ...

what will be interesting if Suarez is found NOT GUILTY of making racist comments. Then any other comments Gus made about racism will probably become irrelevant and, rightly or wrongly, he will be applauded for sticking up for his friend.

As with a lot of "rival" fans, I was following this thread and was pleasantly surprised by the general condemnation of Poyet's comments.

However, I had to sign up to reply to this post. Suarez is a massive cheat. I haven't really seen anyone like him before in England, and that includes Ronaldo. When Liverpool bought him from Ajax, he was serving a 7 match ban in The Netherlands for biting, I repeat, biting, an opponent. He dives all the time, definitely far more than anyone else in the League. He's just generally an odious person. He tried claiming that Swansea's(?) goalkeeper handled the ball outside the area when he was about 2 yards inside the area, that just goes to show what he'll resort to to gain an advantage on the pitch.

He's an exciting footballer to watch, but I definitely wouldn't want him at my club and it probably explains why a bigger club than Liverpool didn't take a punt on him.

again I disagree, and I think a lot of people in England are very happy to tag him as the foreign cheat.

Go away now, you're boring everyone with your drivel.

How can you disagree with him being a cheat when he was serving a 7 game ban for biting an opponent when Liverpool signed him?

or maybe you shouldve know that not all united-fans are gloryhunters, some of us actually have been there from the 80s

No-one is saying Gus has been racist, just that he believes someone who believes they have been abused because of their race (Evra), should just put up with it and any attempt to report it to authority is "crying like a girl"

Has the penny not dropped yet as to WHY you're considered a lesser species...?

Good picture there.

Why is he happy? Has he just needlessly kicked someone, or has his dad won money "gambling" on a done deal?

True, nothing wrong with loyalty and I'm sure this story will be covered somewhat differently in Uruguay...still a shame he didn't just stick up for his mate, though, without all the rest (which would have been easy).
