He'll not be here much longer imo.

That's a massive dig at Congerton and the current squad and we all know what the squad do when the gaffer has a pop.

Loves shifting the blame does Gus. Is happily see the back of him like

I don't see much in the way of exciting replacements, though, marra.

"I'm a head coach, I don't make the squad...I've got four defenders, I play what I got...I'm not going to take responsibility that isn't mine"

So the OP pretty much got it right. Grim shit.

Where's that from mate? Did you hear it at the time or have you just heard/read it somewhere?

It'll make no difference who we bring in, nothing ever changes. From Sbragia to O Neill we've always been shit but I'd rather have a gaffer who wants to be at SAFC and make a fist of it than a gaffer who'll shift blame and keep his name clean with an eye on his next move

Look how Ellis viewed Keano not living here and seeing it as a lack of commitment

These comments will send him the same way after his giving up last year anarl

Back end of last season when things looked awful he distanced himself hugely from it all

Whether he thinks it or not it a disgraceful thing to say imo

This is the first thing that came to mind when I read the OP, so I wouldn't be surprised if he said it. He was talking us down back then (miracle comments etc with no positive at the end such as 'we're going to work hard in training and give it our best'...just glum miserable shite. Then we get a bit of luck and the lads get a bit of confidence and he milks it for every last drop. I've said this on other threads when we've been doing well, so not a knee jerk negative reaction.
 
Must admit, I'm generally quite shocked with Poyets comments. It's almost like he's attempting to totally distance himself from the result.

From what I saw today, the problem is the same that's it's been for a good few seasons now - a complete lack of mental strength in the team. It's always 1 step forward, two back and sadly we will probably see another hammering this season.

I do feel we will see a reaction on Saturday, but it will be back to square one when we visit Palace in a couple of weeks. They will bully us, score early and we will be lucky to have a shot on target.

Just wanted to make sure, before asking @Nelson! if he has an opinion on it now that it's shown that the op is not lying and our fans are not "choosing to believe the worst".

I think it's an appalling comment to make personally. He's either in this with us or he can fuck off. How can he expect the players to be professional and take responsibility on the pitch when he can't do it himself off the pitch?

Go check the website for the personnel name checks, mate.
Congerton is DOF.
Fella called Poyet (or some such) is head coach.
Have you been out of the country? :)

I'm aware of their job titles. If you think there's clear blue water between their functions, then you must've come down in the last shower lad.

You don't have to be a f***ing clairvoyant to work out he's not exactly chuffed with the structure. But then, why did he join in that case? We had a DoF this time last year, he was obviously amenable to giving up at least some power to sign players.

Anyway, it's irrelevant - even if he is chippy about it, sort it out behind closed doors. The fucker must be an absolute nightmare employee.
 
Ironic the amount having a go at Fishpaste for daring to criticise Poyet a week or so ago and now jumping on the Poyet out bandwagon.
