[Albion] Graham Potter joins on four-year deal

[symyjym]

I thought only the assistant is his. Surely he isn't bringing Alan Curtis for instance?

I may have read it wrong but he is not coming alone. I can't find the story I was looking at now.

If that is the case Bruno would be a good fit as part of the coaching team.

Underwhelmed is all I can say, what happened to Jose or Raffa?

We would have hoofed at pass 4

What a loverly goal

Their players went into the other team's half. Ran into it, in fact. Isn't that cheating?

 

[symyjym]

I would suspect Bruno would have to do his badges first.

True but it doesn't always happen in that order. Would be good to see him passing his flair and composure on the ball to the younger players. Man City had 3 staff for each player on Sunday so it wouldn't be hard to invent a role for Bruno.

Ostersunds FK getting stuffed 4-0, Potter OUT!

I like the idea of a young English coach who has an eye on modern game theory, think Eddie Howe, at the outset.
I think he may get more out of the Dutch duffers, because CH was past his best , and seemed to have a downer on the the likes of Andone.
I hope he arrives with his chums.

Bruno does so much charity work it could be Albion in the Community rather than the coaching side.

He is bringing his team from Swansea with him.

His team!? Are we aiming for 10th in the Championship?!

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

Apparently Swansea have turned down our approach.

Turned down our first bribe.

Not even I have been turned down by an entire city.
(Although there was many an evening when it felt like it)

My SAUCE in Swansea WETHERSPOONS has just SPOTTED Graham Potter and his team in a CAR heading WEST.

He's on his WAY

The Gower Peninsula is particularly inviting on days like this.

That's just haggling. I'm sure Tony will up his bid.

Apparently sticks of Brighton rock are not accepted as legal currency in Wales..

Is it not a requirement for coaches and managers to have certain levels of badges before they are appointed?
No doubt there are probably examples of the top 6 getting special treatment here though.

Avram Grant didn't hold the Pro Licence when appointed Chelsea manager. The Premier League required it for anything beyond a 12-week caretaker period. Some bloke called Gareth Southgate was made Middlesbrough manager with no coaching qualifications. And was never heard of again. Wait, what ...?

I don't want Potter. There. I've said it. I think he'll be a shit appointment and we'll be looking for a replacement come Christmas - which will leave us high and dry and on the Allardyce/Redknapp scale to survive.

I really do think that Chris realised how shit our attack was given the signings and tried desperately to limit the point loss by focussing on defence.

This is our start on the slippery slide to Championship and lower League obscurity where we deserve. Bloom has made Chris a scapegoat.

Utter shame.
