I think it's harsh to suggest that Poyet should be written off because of a brief spell as assistant manager.

The guy had just moved back to the country from Uruguay to assist his friend. Wise got the opportunity to leave and therefore it was more than understandable that he went too.

Since then Poyet has had to go it alone, did an admirable job at Tottenham as Ramos' number 2. Two years on, he probably feels he could go for a management job like all his old Chelsea chums.

Whether or not it would be sensible for us to appoint Poyet is another thing, it would be quite exciting though.

Managers in the lower leagues are often no different to players... They're looking for the best possible job for them and they'll leave as soon as something better turns up.
