You said "Society needs to grow up first. We wouldn't need the circus." I took that to mean you think we should not appoint a woman at this point in time, apologies if that is not what you meant. When John Barnes was making a fuss about TB sacking Hughton, I thought it made Barnes look stupid...
We should be sexist about our choice of manager, to avoid potential accusations of sexism?
It's a meritocracy, if there is someone out there that has all the attributes we are looking for and has proven their ability in a high standard professional league, they will be considered. There is only...
Maybe, depends on if you are just making a joke and it's clear it's a joke, or stating as if it were fact why a Greek, any Greek, would be a bad choice as our next Manager.
I am an arse for assuming I know something about you, and that your culture and nationality play a part in that. Kind of the point I have been trying to make, glad you now see it.
I am not offended, I am disappointed. I am sure you are aware I was paraphrasing another poster, and that both comments about Italians and South Americans are racist. In the context of a joke, it isn't a big deal, but he wasn't making a joke or teasing a mate, he said he didn't think Tony Bloom...

If you say someone is unlikely to hire someone because of their nationality or ethnicity having a reputation for hot headedness, that is at least saying Tony Bloom would use racial discrimination as part of his selection process. Then pretty much...
This is why his leaving is so disappointing, it proves that a club like us will never be consistently a top 4 club, because the existing ones will buy all the things that you have that makes you a top 4 side, either the minute you achieve it, or the moment it looks like you might achieve it.

I have no doubt he would have given him a role, but he could not guarantee that he would like it as much as working with Potter as a first team coach. There are/were first team coaches at Chelsea now wondering what they will be doing, because Potter has brought everyone he wants with him for the...
I can hope for it, however unlikely it might be. But if he loses the Chelsea job, and he ain't coming back to Brighton, there are not many options that wouldn't involve moving somewhere. No, stop it, don't even think of which clubs he could commute to from Brighton.
I hope Swansea because they...
