Bloom's massive gamble - with our money

[Stat Brother]

Alex Ferguson had never played in the English League nor managed a single game either and he did alright.

These people would have turned down Mourinho in favour of Dave 'Arry Bassett.

I just think Poyet is a vastly superior manager.

While you are churning out your relentlessly hysterical bleatings Gareth, what, as a matter of interest, was Poyets record in his first 8 League games?

To save you looking it up, it was P8 W2 D1 L5

That's cos he'd never managed in the championship!!

I am expressing an opinion. That is the generally idea and purpose of a football forum. Poyet took over a shite side, Garcia took over a side who were comfortably the best in the league for the second half of last season. Slightly different circumstances don't you think ?

 

[fat old seagull]

Every home game for 8 years and you didn't think to get a season ticket?

Exactly.....Taxi for Pinocchio !

 

[Working class pride]

Jesus.

We sold 26,000.

Some fans are really deluded. Dropping the prices by 25% won't bring in the 4000 extra. Maybe 750-100 so would end up making less money.

Prices are standard for championship football in a stadium which needs paying for.

£23 per game for a season ticket which can be paid at like £45 per month is superb value.

4,000 empty seats reflects the football we are playing. If we had won the first two games, I reckon 29k would have been there.

Plus people are on holiday.

Obviously spot on but you miss the point. I also don't think they are the proof that shows that every village has an idiot. No there are a few people who seem to spend 24/7 on NSC and they seem to be of the "look at me, I can create a drama" mentality. I think they think they are in the "original, alternative comedian" mould, when in fact they are not original, or funny. Having said that, one or two might be genuinely upset that Brighton have the biggest support outside the Premier League as they think it should be even better, but as Brian said to the cured old ex leper on life of Brian "there's no pleasing some people".

Not really. Poyet took over a side and took a while to get them playing the way he wanted.

Garcia has taken over a side and needs to be given time to get them playing the way he wants.

Poyet's credentials were as a number two - his playing record is irrelevant - otherwise Bobby Charlton and Bobby Moore would have been managerial legends. Garcia's credentials are as a League Championship winning manager. The Israeli league is no La Liga, but it's better than League One.

They were. It was just a shame that their manager let us down so badly and couldn'y motivate them to win the league.

Or send them out for the most important 45 minutes of their lives ready to win.

 

[Working class pride]

It wasn't motivation its that he couldn't find a centre forward who could score 1 on 1's with the keeper. A problem we still have, forwards who as Oscar pointed or "need 40 chances to score one goal". If we had had a goal scorer last year, we would have won the league. We didnt, but we still had by far the biggest support in the division, and that is why we will one day be an established top flight side as we have a chairman who will not accept the historically well supported but under achieving football team that is BHA.

Is it better than league one ? In what way ? Time will tell if I am the Buffoon you think I am and I know it is a high risk strategy to have an opinion on here especially if it is not licking the club, the board, the manager and the players 100% all the time. Garcia is a MASSIVE punt. It may be a masterstroke from Bloom, you may after all be right. We will all watch with interest.

With respect U/S, whose opinion should we respect, someone who spends a remarkable amount of time on NSC or someone who has spent the best part of £150/160 Million on BHA since the Withdean years and is a self made made with a remarkable amount of cash. If Oscar does fail then he will be gone. Poyet however, well after that press conference against palace, then as far as I am concerned, I am not remotely surprised that he is not with us any longer.

And Poyet himself was a huuuuuuuuuuuuge punt. He got that one pretty right, all things told.

I'm not saying you are a buffoon. I just think you (and others) have a tendency to pile in and get all hysterical without stepping back and looking at the bigger picture.

Yes, it may be a masterstroke by Bloom (it wouldn't be his first) but isn't it right and proper that he (Garcia) is given time, rather than be slaughtered after TWO games?

Fair enough but for me I still cannot see he did anything to warrant the gross misconduct charge and he was the second best manager BHAFC have ever had in my 40 years of supporting them. Also just because someone has a shitload of money it does not mean they are infallible, never make a bad call and their shit smells of roses. Bloom is a Human Being not some sort of Superhero. What next The Dark Knight V Tony Bloom ? Love the guy for delivering Falmer but I worry about the trend on here that he can never get anything wrong.

Probably because you are 1. Not an employment lawyer and 2. because you, like me, have no idea why he was found in breach of contract. As for "he cant do anything wrong" then you ask the wrong question. Ask who would do more right. Now stop your fooking moaning.

 

[Uncle Spielberg]

BBC South East ramped it up tonight by commenting " how long before the BHAFC faithful start calling for the return of the Uruyguayan ? " and with Crawley " showing their Championship neighbours how to do it " so the pressure will ramp up as the whole country looks at BHAFC as a shining example of progress.

Is whether you can or can't see the reasons for GP's dismissal going to change what's going on now? Tony Bloom makes the decisions & there's 120M good reasons why. No-one's saying Bloom's infallible but I think he deserves a little more of our collective respect than giving his new appointment 180 minutes of league football before questioning his judgement.

And respect is the word, some on this site just think they above giving Mr Bloom the respect he deserves. They for me have lost the whole point of the struggle against Archer and that is why I can't give them the time of day. Petty and some think they are funny, which is even worse.

No we wouldn't, because one tried and tested goal scorer can't score goals when he hasn't got the ball, or is alone and surrounded by opposition defenders.

Garcia is a MASSIVE punt, wtf?
We are talking about Oscar Garcia not Jerry.

Who would you consider a safe pair of hands, Alan Curbishley?
