The Championship

[Reece]

Yep, surely someone will be in for Poyet now. Shame.

[Mattshark]

Bridcutt looks a decent player.

Scored a couple of lovely goals for us last season.

[Chazza]

Graeme Bailey @GraemeBailey
Gus Poyet and his backroom staff suspended by Brighton. We understand no other club involved.

[Alex]

Jesus, wonder why then?

[Alex]

Ok, rumours are he offered his resignation.

[Chazza]

Simon Yaffe @Yafs
Poyet suspended by Brighton. He's going to Fulham #ffc #bafc

[Gibbo]

So...Jol to the bitters? Poyet to Fulham?

[Vermilion]

Poyet suspended for breach of contract, after he told his players he could not guarantee he'd be there next season. Apparently.

[Shaggy]

Why are Fulham sacking Jol?

Jol is rumoured to be one of the biggest *******s in the game. Apparently most players who play for him wind up hating him.

[Chazza]

They have gone to **** 2nd half of the season as well.

Dropped like a stone.

[Alex]

Aye, Fulham have been utter **** most of this season. Knows how to play the jolly card.

Poyet fury as Brighton leave unwelcome surprise for Crystal Palace players BEFORE play-off semi final

Brighton are set to call in the police to investigate a misdemeanour at the club - after someone did a poo in the away dressing room at the Amex before the play-off semi-final on Monday.

Ian Holloway's Crystal Palace arrived to find a not so pleasant surprise awaiting on the floor of the toilet and shower area.

And Brighton manager Gus Poyet, who has since been suspended by Brighton, wrote a scathing email to players to find out who was responsible for the incident.

We can reveal the ranting email that was sent in the wake of Brighton's 2-0 defeat.

'I am angry that someone within this club could endanger our good reputation and stoop so low. I would like someone to accept responsibility and resign,' read the email.

Poyet also criticised the marketing department's decision to leave clappers on the seats, saying it added a 'negative vibe to proceedings.'

THE FULL TRANSCRIPT OF GUS POYET'S EMAIL TO HIS PLAYERS

'Hi All,

1) ...when Crystal Palace players and staff arrived to the Amex and went into their dressing room, they found themselves in a very uncomfortable situation, for some reason that still no clear to me , someone during the day had access to the away dressing room and done something terrible, trying to upset everyone related to Palace. To say it in clear English, someone had a ‘poo’ all outside the toilets, over and around the toilets.

Now, after careful consideration, and even after a meeting with the Chairman who assured me that MY REPUTATION IS INTACT, I feel that I must express my anger that anyone inside this organisation thought they could interfere with it.

I am angry that someone within this club could endanger our good reputation and stoop so low - did they imagine that this would affect the Crystal Palace players - well it possible did - it may just have fired them up even more.

Well someone made a very bad decision and I think it is time to stand up and take responsibility - not just the culprit but those employees who are supposed to make our stadium safe and secure. Surely changing rooms are high up on securities check lists???

Surely someone should lose their job to allow such a breach of security - they do not deserve to be part of this club!...

2)...would someone like to admit it was their idea to hand out stupid pieces of noise-making paper - can I tell you it was an extremely silly idea and the result was an annoying noise - I am not for one minute blaming the result of the game on this, but it added only negative vibes to the proceedings along with the rubbish filled balloons that littered the pitch.

My team of players and staff have worked hard this season and I do not appreciate negative actions from others within the club...whoever you are, you let the club down very badly.

Gus Poyet'

Fair play to Poyet, that was a ****ty thing to do Palace and the ****house that done it must be punished.

It stinks: Poyet fuming after excrement was found on Palace dressing room floor before play-off clash

18 May 2013 13:16

Brighton reported to have launched an investigation into the incident as suspended boss Poyet rages at staff in an email

Gut Poyet was furious after excrement was found on the floor in the Crystal Palace dressing room before Monday night's play-off match at the Amex Stadium.

Brighton have now launched an investigation into the incident, which happened before the Seagulls lost 2-0 to Palace, who secured a place in the Championship play-off final.

Poyet - who was suspended by the club on Thursday along with assistant manager Mauricio Taricco and first-team coach Charlie Oatway after he told players he was likely to quit - sent an angry email to staff at the club demanding that the perpetrator own up and resign.

"I am angry that someone within this club could endanger our good reputation and stoop so low," the email said, according to The Sun.

"Did they imagine that this would affect the Crystal Palace players? Well possibly it did. It may just have fired them up more.

"Well someone made a very bad decision and I think it is time to stand up and take responsibility. Not just the culprit but those employees who are supposed to make our stadium safe and secure."

Poyet also took aim at the club's policy to distribute paper clappers to the home fans for the Palace clash.

He wrote: "It was an extremely silly idea and the result was an annoying noise."

The Uruguayan is expected to leave the club after four years in charge, following the defeat on Monday which cost them a chance of a place in the Premier League next term.

His suspension is not thought to be linked to the dressing room incident.

He has already been linked with the vacant job at Everton, as well as Stoke City and Fulham.

Meanwhile former Brighton player Vicente has blasted Poyet as "selfish" and "egocentric" after he was released from the club this week.

The former Spain player who made 18 starts in two injury-hit seasons for the club told The Argus: "He is the worst person I've come across in football. For me he is a selfish person, very egocentric. I say that because it's how I feel.

"I won't talk badly about my team-mates, because they have been fantastic with me. What I think is unacceptable is that the manager makes fun of his players. I've seen things here that I have never seen in my career. If you miss with a shot in training, he makes fun. For me, that is unacceptable in football."
