Sunderland boss Poyet won't take Short relationship for granted

Sunderland boss Gus Poyet is taking nothing for granted over his club future.

Poyet insists he won't allow himself to get comfortable.

Asked about his relationship with chairman Ellis Short he said: "I talk to him and we've got an idea. We share a vision but you've got to be realistic.

"You need to keep proving yourself. It's not that easy to say, 'Yeah, go on - ten years, whatever happens to you we stick with you.' It sounds great but it doesn't happen in football..

"You need to at least be showing with results that it's working."
