[Albion] If Potter were to leave tomorrow.........

[Hugo Rune]

Why?

You can judge the quality of a squad by who you think would get poached by better sides. In our case it's only Biss, Lamptey and possibly White (plus a rumour about Dunk every time his missus wants to redecorate, fed by his agent to a gullible Albion fan). So who would poach our coach? If the answer isn't another EPL side then you wonder about his value and ability dont you?

Southampton would have him in a heartbeat if Hassle-nut left. Imagine a Potter team with Ings up front, the former Burnley man would be on 15+ by now if he’d be playing for us this season.

Which EPL side is looking for a new manager? None, so Potter is clearly absolute shit. You do have a weird logic in your head

Not really. Potter was gainfully employed at Swansea when we got him.

Why didn't Chelsea come running for "the best English coach in the game"?

Forest.

You do realise how silly that comment is don’t you? You know nothing about Abramovich?

When have Chelsea ever recruited an English Manager that wasn’t ‘one of their own’ under Abramovich?

Realistically, Steve Bruce is almost certainly going to get the chop at some point. Do you honestly think Newcastle would appoint Potter right now?

Mike Ashley is no Tony Bloom.

Someone like Pulis would be my guess.

Last time I looked Potter had a job and a much better one than the poisoned chalice that is Newcastle

Leeds fans seemed quite keen on him last week though. Their knee jerk was after being outplayed in a defeat not after a draw against a relegation rival

Yep. As someone who is wholly committed to the democratic process in the UK I'm sure you'll appreciate the latest votes from the Brighton supporting jury.

And I'm sure the rest of NSC can also see how much you value them

Ooooooooh
What about my 83 year old Mother?
What about My wife?.
Piece of work.

Leeds fans also think they've won the European Cup at some point. Their judgement is...unreliable.

Poll to follow.

It was never in doubt.

Not really.

He recruited Fat Frank, presumably to bring on the youngsters. Pep then stated GP was the best English coach in the league, ranking him above FF.

This is getting pointless again though. Whenever people are asked to provide a Potter replacement you manage to come up with a reason why they wouldn't come here. Now I'm asking a hypothetical question about who would take him if he left you're coming out with excuses why he wouldn't be taken by other teams. Yet, surely, the "best English coach" in the EPL would be

 

[Swansman]

He's not uprooting his family and moving again in the near future so it would have to be some team in southern England and he wont work for some absurd owner again like in Swansea, so his options would be fairly limited. Saints when Hassenhuttl moves on would be the most logical option.

Think Guinness Boy, neilbard, junior and rest of the braintrust are going to have to keep hoping in vain though.

 

[Pavilionaire]

Judging by some of the shocking Prem appointments when chairmen press the panic button, Potter could easily get another Prem job.

Pulis, Hughes, Bruce, Pardew, Allardyce have all sat tignt and got work in the past, I can see Potter getting a job at one of the yoyo clubs.

He recruited Fat Frank because he was a Chelsea legend and because they had a transfer embargo. He did better than expected so kept the job. Allegedly he had little say in the signing of 200 million worth of signings and has been a dead man walking for a while. He is also the only non title/cup big name manager appointed under Abramovich.

So because he didn’t want Potter you think your argument stands up? Are you drunk?

I’ll run you through this step by step.

1 - people say our team isn’t good enough and Potter is doing the best he can with our players. They back this up by asking who would sign our players and whose squad these players would get in.

2 - using the same logic I’ve asked which other EPL teams would poach Potter.

3 - Pep has rather famously called Potter the best British coach in the EPL.

Just wondering if Potter is so good why he’s not in the frame? Must be cheaper than Tuchel even with our compo? Managers aren’t players in finance terms.

Nope, come back in the morning and try again when you are sober

 

[Kuipers Supporters Club]

I don’t think he would get one. His reputation is falling apart.

None of our managers from the AMEX have a job at the top table.

Hughton and Jones are at their level.

Garcia? Hyypia? Poyet?
