I'm sorry but I find it very disrespectful him going on about going back to Leeds sooner or later. Shouldn't be talking about any other clubs than Brighton !!

Poyet, quizzed about the possibility of clinching a play-off spot at Leeds, told The Argus: “It’s a great place. I love that place and I will probably go back one day, because I enjoyed my time there so much.

“I think the relationship without being in charge was so powerful with the fans that I am sure I will have the opportunity to go to Leeds sooner or later.”

Haha, I was waiting for this.

I actually love having an honest manager. One we can trust. People need to stop pissing their pants every time he answers a question.

I'm sorry, but I find it very disrespectful that you're on here slagging off the best manager I can remember us having.

He'll have the opportunity to manage them next season won't he? Job is his if he really wants it I would think. If that's his ambition for next season then good luck to him. I have just wanted him to see out this season, if he wants off after that I'll be disappointed but not suicidal.

Why does he get slagged off every time he answers a loaded question put to him by the media.

If he went to every club that has been mentioned he would only spend about 6 months at each after he has completed the job with us.

Silly old bat
I don't mind him saying he loved it there , just don't think he should be saying he will go back.

Why not? He loves all the clubs he's worked at, either as a player or staff. We all know he's not going to stay with us forever so just relax, and enjoy the time that he's here.
I don't have a problem with him being honest, as that's just Gus. I've no doubt, that at some time in the future, when we're doing well under a new manager, he will say that he loved his time at Brighton.

I seem to recall GP coming out at the Withdean for the game with Leeds, beaming widely at the Leeds fans and waving, who in return gave him hell and plenty of abuse because he had walked out on them. The smile was quickly knocked off his face and strode off quickly to the dugout. Perhaps by saying this he hopes to lessen any reaction this time.

Absolutely, we know where we stand with Gus. Alsp people keep asking him the same old questions time after time, avoiding an honest answer just acts as distraction to him and us.

We all know he wants to achieve success here and if he does get us up there is every chance he may leave. If that is the way things pan out we also know that Tony will replace him well, so I am not concerned either way.

What you cannot ignore is what a great job Gus has done transforming this team from one that was threatened with relegation from League One to a 'potential' premiership one in a very short space of time, it is incredible.

Blimey, have Leeds sacked Brian McDermott already?

I like that Gus is honest. Much better than many managers that claim to be at a club for the long-haul and then move on at the first opportunity.

I appreciate his honesty but I do find the flirting with previous clubs pretty tiring.

Maybe it's all part of an ongoing mental poker game with Tony Bloom to free up transfer funds, or improved personal terms ... I have no idea. As a mere fan I find it a bit unsettling. We all know that players and managers move on eventually but while they're here we want to believe their heart is 100% in BHA.
