Poyet about to be put out of his misery according to the grauniad

Childish, I know; but I'm going to gloat.

You would have played two inexperienced youths in defence rather than an experienced player? Cook & Elphick have only just reached the Championship this season, having gained their experience in League 1.
I notice that you left out Grant Hall who refused a contract with us, because he saw the glittering lights of Spurs, but has gone out on loan time & time again, currently at Blackpool. It doesn't sound so glamorous struggling at the bottom of the Championship, and didn't back up your point.

Elphic played 153 games for us in League One and Cook had a loan stint at Bournemouth playing 26 games before we let him go, and had a great game against Liverpool. They couldn't have had much more L1 experience and they certainly weren't novices. There is no reason why they could not have worked at the CB alongside Greer who actually had no experience in the Championship before us. Grant Hall never played at any level so I don't know why you have used him to make a point.

How does an 'Eddie Howe type manager' mean we would have kept hold of Murray?

Would Murray have guaranteed us success?

Maybe I should have said that any manager would have wanted to keep the core of their promoted team together, and they certainly would have kept Murray.

On SSN news, poor Gus

That'll free him up for the Chelsea job

We know it was the Sunderland fans' fault that they lost pitifully at Bradford in the cup. But before he left today, did Poyet tell us whose fault it was his team got absolutely ruined by a relegation rival at home this weekend? Was it the media's fault?

 

[RexCathedra]

Was it the media's fault?

No, silly.
JFC's fault.

 

[n1 gull]

Not his fault, definitely 120% not his fault

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

Oh well. About as suitable for management of a professional football club as fellow head-mentalist Roy Keane

 

[Biscuit]

Should have stuck with the ceiling, stuck with the ceeeeeiiiillllling, stuck with the ceiling.

Hyppia is available for them.

So how was the Premier League promised land Gus ? Fancy being the boss of a play-off contender in the Championship now ? Or will you hold out for something better.......

Tony Bloom or Bloomo as I like to call him when we're out on the town, is a decent bloke but not perfect. The same could be said for Poyet. End of the day, Bloomo called the shots and Poyet should have accepet that, be discreet, professional and rational. Probabaly same think happened up Weirside.
