Van der MoodHoover Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 Thats a big surprise. I expect them to struggle again next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SSD Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 FA Cup semi-final, safe from relegation. What more do the owners require? This will bite them on the backside next season, I'll put a fiver on them being relegated 19/20. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Millenniumram Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 Harsh sacking since he kept them up but they really have been awful this year. Only really kept up by there being so many other poo teams, that Brighton side have been so bad the last few months they deserve to go down frankly. If only we could relegate teams for simply being poo rather than finishing position, think our 07/08 season could have given that side a run for their money. Been worse than Fulham and Cardiff this calendar year, only their early form kept them up. Harsh sacking but on that trajectory I can see it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nfb Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 Unless they have a replacement lined up they know can do a better job? it's madness just to jump on that managerial merry go round ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd definitely have stuck with him though - let him make changes in the summer and go again. He's a popular bloke so now everyone will want them to get relegated. Especially if they end up with allardyce or summat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolfie20 Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 Sums up modern football - especially at PL level. Keeping up any of the "smaller" clubs (Burnley, Bournemouth, Watford etc) in the top division is rightly considered a success. Brighton strong candidates to be relegated next season.

Day Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 I can understand why people are looking at what he has achieved, maybe that’s not the issue and they don’t share the same vision going forward? Club owners and manager have to be in sync with their plans for the club, when they start heading in opposite directions it’s game over. He’s been at club 5 years now which is some achievement given the way the game has gone, with a year left on his deal, it’s actually the perfect time to say thanks and make the change now, rather than a season of will he or won’t he be gone in the summer.

I’m worried about Swansea next season if they keep Potter. I reckon they’d be dark horses for promotion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cannable Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 Their net spend since promotion is £123,000,000 yet despite this they’re following the trend his Norwich side set. Brutal, but the right decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Animal is a Ram Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 Billy Davies has more votes than 2 Gary Rowetts. Is that Alex Scott as in the former Arsenal/England player, turned Beeb pundit? Would be interesting to see a female manager, but walking into a Premier League team close to relegation? Baptism of fire doesn't quite cut it!
