Sunderland AFC have parted company with head coach Gus Poyet this afternoon.

The club would like to place on record its’ thanks to Gus and wishes him well for the future.

Chairman Ellis Short said: “I would like to thank Gus for his endeavours during his time at the club, in particular last season’s ‘great escape’ and cup final appearance, which will live long in the memory of every Sunderland fan.

“Sadly, we have not made the progress that any of us had hoped for this season and we find ourselves battling, once again, at the wrong end of the table. We have therefore made the difficult decision that a change is needed.”

An announcement will be made in due course regarding the head coach position.

Could have kept his job if he took the many opportunities they had to get out of trouble.
Pretty much this. The amount of times he's had to speed away from the pack and failed is embarassing. We are now the club the entire league believes doesn't belong. Nice bloke, but fuck him. He wasn't up to managing the club.
