[Brighton] Graham Potter

[zefarelly]

I'm bored, but not so bored to start a 'broken pencil ' thread.

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

Following in the footsteps of Phil Neville and Sarina Wiegman.

But would he take a step down from the EPL?

Would certainly build on his experience of being technical director for the Ghana women's team, and is probably in all honesty his true level. Certainly won't be troubling the selection boards of EPL clubs again anytime soon. Tho voluntarily take a step down from his life-changing EPL lottery win? Not going to happen. Will need TB to give him the good news like he did to CH

Laughing once more at the knee-bowing at the Cult Of Potter. It truly is pitiful

Genuine question. What does GP have to do for you to think he’s doing a good job?

What are your expectations of a Brighton manager in the Premier League?

To play devils advocate, what has he done to suggest a bigger club might come in for him?

I expect him to have earned the right to manage at this level and gained respect through his achievements within the game. I just see a complete joke of a CV. Fair enough replace CH, but this guy is not fit to put CH cones out on the training ground

Good to see that he is considered lucky to still be in a job by some, I hate it when people change their minds after a couple of decent results. The last two have been absolute shit though so ammunition for the doubters

So let’s hear it then...

Replace with who?

Don’t skip the question just answer it straight

Ok, you’re ducking the question slightly. So you don’t think he should have got the job. Qualification wise I don’t disagree with you actually. But put that aside.

Where should he finish in the league for you to say “GP’s doing well”. Ie. I’m curious to know what you expect a Brighton manager to do in the Premier League? Where should we be?

You will be remaining curious, believe me

You must be watching a different team to me each week.

Exactly what I thought. But we have become more direct recently despite our lack of pace.

Eddie Howe never got poached and he had far more success than Potter has, so I would be surprised if anyone came in for Potter.

Potter vs your boy Eddie Howe in the relegation battle last season.

Who won?

Let’s not forget who spent the most?

Still waiting for Tom Hark Boring **** before we go there

I really hope NSC isn’t gonna have a thread on the possibility of losing every good asset we have from now until next season - it’s depressing!

Luckily we have had some convincing arguments on this thread to confirm GP is going nowhere unless he is sacked, not good enough for decent clubs either, so he won’t be poached

So this one’s sorted, he’s staying

Aside from the fact he must took his side down, I don’t really get the Eddie Howe obsession with some to be honest.

I guess we’re a decent club now - and he’s not good enough for us according to many this season so.... it figures!

See my above post. He's achieved far more than Potter has (for now).

FWIW I wouldn't want Howe as our manager but you can't deny his record.
