Poyet According To Naylor

[Commander]

It usually means they've been given a 'steer' from a reliable or even an official source, but that that source is not prepared to go on the record about it.

I've heard that before somewhere...

 

[Giraffe]

Does this count as a TUESDAY appointment?!!

 

[Hungry Joe]

15 games I give him, thats the end of January....

I know your tongue was probably firm in your cheek when you posted that but I think it is significant that this will be Blooms first managerial appointment and hence he's bound to give whoever it is more time.

You've got 11hrs.45mins!

 

[Man of Harveys]

Unlike the rest of us, Naylor really would have something very concrete to be severely marked down for, having claimed he'll be in charge by Southampton. That really is sticking his neck out and lends a lot of credibility to this, IMHO. Hope I'm right.

 

[Perry Milkins]

Yes and for Bloom as well.

And TB's been pretty successful in that department over the years, has he not?

Is this an arGUS exclusive?

 

[folkestonesgull]

lives in Kent according to the 442 article so no upheaval for his family which makes it even more likely.

Wonder if he could give me a lift....

A risky appointment, taking over a club near the bottom of League One with no managerial experience to talk of, wouldn't have been my first choice, their are proven candidates out there but a brave choice and I hope for Blooms sake it pays off.

 

[Hungry Joe]

A loaded poker-playing chairman, new stadium round the corner, Gus Poyet as manager - it's official, Brighton are SEXY again.

BANG!

Motson's commentary on that video is bigger than hip-hop.

Brilliant the guy has not even been appointed yet and people are being negative!

 

[Tricky Dicky]

Forgive me for repeating the question, but I've not had a proper answer from anyone yet. Why do people think Gus is the right man - he was no.2 to Wise at Leeds, some say he was the football brains behind that venture, but I don't know if that is speculation. So, given there is nothing much to go on, what are people basing their enthusiasm on ?

Not saying he isn't the man, I just don't know why people want him - though he is a nice bloke to be sure.

Defo!

 

[DIFFBROOK]

Without a doubt he is a very good coach. Can he make the step up to management? Management is a lot easier when things are going ok and everyones a happy bunny, but your management skills are looked at when things are not going so well, certainly if there are disruptive influences etc.

Can he be the bad cop? I think our lot need a rod of Iron and coaching to sort them out.

So, in that sense I think its a bit of a gamble. I hope I'm completely wrong though.
