Radio been saying how the chelsea players look like they are just ignoring Potters instructions on the side line.

Which is nice
Looking now and Chelsea have pretty much thrown in the towel, no urgency or desire.

I actually kind of feel sorry for him. If I were a Chelsea fan, I’d be more pissed off at the players if they really were ignoring his instructions, if you are going to ignore the manager then this pathetic performance will happen.
No player should feel they can ignore a managers instructions.
Rightly or wrongly this is the problem GP has. The current players won't perform for him because they don't respect him.

Just modern human nature.

Like everywhere else in society where there's thousands of people, there's a bunch of wifebeaters, bullies, child abusrers and other lowlife scum lurking here. Often they can contain themselves but when a golden opportunity to disrespect and abuse humans, like they do in normal life, occurs, they struggle to hide their true colours.

Or it’s just football and people are having a laugh

Well, except Potter and Chelsea

well yes he is under a lot of pressure right now, but as has been said over and over, he took the job with them on silly silly money so he would have know that pressure was part of the package. As for his last few months with us when he seemed to start with the odd little dig at fans was he honestly under that much pressure? He benefited from a load of goodwill and patience from fans and chairman.
you're absolutely correct, i just think it's unhealthy to carry so much hate around with you

but that was always going to be the possible situation when he was appointed wasn’t it?

loads of egos in the Chelsea camp and in fairness to Potter a manager who was promising but still truthfully unproven.

FWIW I don’t feel sorry for Potter, he knew what he was getting himself into and we didn’t see him for dust, if he fails then I have absolutely no problem with that. If nothing else it’ll prove to others that the grass isn’t always greener on the other side (see also: Cucurella). I do feel sorry for Bruno and Roberts being dragged along with the travelling circus and burning bridges with a club that genuinely loved them. He was never going to get the support this club gave him anywhere else, especially at Chelsea, and he’s now finding that out out the hard way.

roger six, please don’t misread me, I genuinely don’t hate GP. I dislike much of what he did towards the end with us and particularly early days at Chelsea.

yeah, but why don't they train their brains to get the dopamine from positive things,

then they would be happier and enjoy life more, and make the people around them happier,

it's an odd one, alright
