Gus staying?
- Thread starter TSB
- Start date
Correct definitly North America.
For what it's worth (and I agree that's very little) this is my take:
- It's in both Gus's and the club's best interests to resolve this amicably;
- There is potentially £2m at stake in lost compensation if BHA simply sacks Gus;
- There are likely to be a number of clubs interested in Gus;
- It's difficult to line up another manager before getting rid of Gus (for obvious contractual reasons);
- Hence, the best way forward is to agree with Gus he can talk to other clubs, whilst at the same time Gus agrees we can line up a new manager without risk of a constructive dismissal claim;
- As soon as Gus is sorted with a new club (hopefully v soon), BHA can announce the name of the new manager (who will have been patiently waiting in the wings;
- Confidentiality agreements are signed by all and sundry, and everyone moves on.
This is all entirely speculation on my behalf - I have absolutely zero info (inside or otherwise) - but it would seem a sensible way forward for all concerned.

If true, Gus will be hacked off I reckon on missing out on Wayne Bridge.

Really, he cost us £120m this season by missing straight promotion and then cocking up the playoff at home.
I don't trust Gus to learn by his mistakes personally.

Shame, OGS would be OK, but Rangnick is the one I'd love to see appointed.

From what I have seen and heard from around and about, this seasons budget will be at least equal to last seasons budget.
I would love to have Gus back in charge, if Gus wants it.
But I don't want to hear how much he loves Leeds, how his budget is so small that just staying up is an achievement or that he is anywhere near the fecking ceiling unless we are finishing 4th in the Premier league.

Tony could clearly pay Gus off, but the issue is more likely (a) does he think he should, or (b) would a pay off come out of our FFP restricted budget, or does it fall outside of FFP ( and I've no idea about that ).
Personally I want Gus to go, and go now, but if he stays and Tony is happy, then he gets my support - Until he starts his touting shenanigans again, or is conspicuously the only manager who doesn't rule himself out of a vacancy, when others are doing so.

I work in the International postage/freight business, USA and Canada are North America, Mexico is classed as Central America.

I think we can all agree that saying Mexico is in South America is crazy talk, that's like saying the UK is in Africa. What type of facts are those?

I am sorry but Gus has to go. For all the positives I don't want someone here who is always thinking the grass is greener and is not afraid to air that view all too frequently.
In addition, the rose tinted specs will be in the minority now and the moment we stutter the crowd would be on his back without a thought and he would know that.
If he ends up staying it will be for the wrong reason I.e. all the other jobs he perceived to be better have gone!

ah yes, but is Gibraltar in Africa?
Didn't the rock that is Gibraltar once sit with Africa, Gibraltar is British, therefore a part of Britain is African.

We have no better options than Gus and Gus has no better options than us, so we may as well kiss and make up, just to end this farce now.

Not if they have to pay compensation.
The accusation that Gus touts himself doesn't stand up to scrutiny in my opinion. There is no proof he spoke to Reading or Wolves, Leeds, who he is meant to be flirting with only changed their manager two months ago, and I pretty sure Gus was never mentioned seriously for it, and if, a big if Spurs or Chelski ever came in for him, I would personally have no problem with him going. Unlike most of our support, he wasn't born in Sussex, so. Should show no more loyallty than any other salaried employeem

Although he did say that he becomes a supporter of every club he works for. So we're in the list with Zaragoza, Chelsea, Tottenham, Swindon and Leeds.
