[Football] Gus Poyet to Greece

[AmexRuislip]

I’m not sure if I’m reading all the above replies correctly, but people DO realise that ‘Ethniki Omada’ Is a nickname for the Greece national team? (rather than a Greek club they haven’t heard of?)

There's always an educated one to spoil it for us fickos

 

[Medwayseagull]

He has been there before.

Any one like a sweepstake on how long this will last.

I still think he is a good manager, regardless of his ego.

It's his ego that stops him being a good manager.

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

Ziggy is his name

Ours was Ragnar when we inherited him from my son's former landlord, but we call him Ragsy, Fatso or Little Boy.

I had a chat with Poyet at my local non league club last week.
I told him he gave me one of the best nights of my life, he looked pleased until I said “ 2-0 at The Amex “
He didn’t look happy, and he later moved to the other side of the pitch

Poor old Gus

Not one to muck about!


We got Ziggy as a kitten from our local rescue cattery.
Turns out he's allergic to his own plaque, consequently he had to have 14 teeth out @£600, due to gingervitis.
He's only 10 months old

Nope, every day’s a school day

 

[Rodney Thomas]

When he was at the Albion, prostituting himself in every interview and banging on about ceilings... who knew the ceilings went as high as Ethniki Omada.

Bringing back the glory days after the 2004 euro fluke.

You don't fluke a tournament

GP is a terminally-discredited brand. Be lucky to keep the job beyond first clash with doubtless firebrand owner and fans of wherever crap he is now. Sad in many ways.

GP's personal ceiling reached it's apex with the Albion. A bit like every other Amex-era manager, both past and present...

GP could've done well with the Albion, if he kept his head down and mouth shut.
Then we might not have had the other GP

At least #BarberOut managed to convince TB that we should hire some near-random as a 'coach' so club could reuse GP-branded coach kit

Yep all of this - the mouth shut bit was always going to be a problem

 

[Swansman]

Good luck to him. They have a very shite team these days, will be a tough job.

It's a head-mental league. Perfectly suited to GP taking the gig and being sacked within the month. Previous Albion mediocrity Oscar Garcia ended up there. If memory serves, he retired hurt when somebody lobbed a cash regjster at him from the cheap seats or somesuch nonsense

If he gets sacked from the Greece national team within a month it would be impressive as they dont have any games until March. But it is indeed a difficult country to be a manager in.

Does the Greek national team have an owner?

If I recall correctly Radio was his nickname possibly when he was at Chelski
Bit of a clue for his prospective employer ,on his inability to keep quiet

 

[Springal]

Falling out and parting of the ways inevitable. Does he still have Charlie and Mauricio as assistants?

Ethniki Omada! .. WHO? We’re ****ing brilliant?

Greased up and ready to go

I think Charlie fell off the Poyet bandwagon a while back, last seen rattling around sussex non league football

Didn't Greece only score about two goals in the entire tournament, both from corners?

Fair point, but if anybody could
