If Potter had said "I can understand a bit of the frustration, but it's not particularly helpful" or similar, we may never have thought about the match again.

You can go too far protecting/praising players. See: "The effort from players was there" from Potter on Sunday. Chelsa fans loved that. lol
Potter the personality – rather than Potter the football coach – is certainly a bit of an issue with people. Maybe THE issue. Just look at the love that RDZ is getting for showing passion by sprinting down the touchline. A lot of fans seemed to have disregarded Potter's ability as a manager (or achievements at BHAFC) and become a bit touchy because of what he said/didn't say or did/didn't do.

When did a Brighton manager last leave for better things AND it worked out?

You can already see GP has lost it a bit at Chelsea, out of his depth, fans out of patience and to me he looks like a man who knows Boehly and co. sold him a line, but in reality won't be giving him time to truly make that squad his. He looks like those before/after president pictures where they age 20 years in 4. It's only a matter of time until he lashes out at the fans there.

In the US fans boo constantly, so Jesse probably thinks its par for the course.

Ha ha! Good one :lolol:

This one is going to run and run and run until he's sacked. And probably continue after he turns up somewhere else.

People are weird.
You keep sticking up for Cucurella and Potter you could say that is weird. I get Potter to an extent but Cucurella can’t see anything good in his actions before he left.

I'm not 'sticking up' for anyone – I'm completely indifferent about both of them, largely because they aren't at the club anymore.

What I do find 'weird' is people getting SO obsessed over the whole fiasco, that they are still going on about him/them, highlighting anything they do wrong at their new club and moaning about what they've done to our club. All that, after beating Chelsea, sitting above them in the league and with a new manager that has got the team playing arguably better than they were under Potter.

When RDZ goes, I'll probably feel the same about him as I do about Potter now, if it makes you feel better? :shrug:

If he continues like he’s started he’ll be gone to a big club within the year. Probably an Italian one, let’s enjoy him while we can

TB probably put a dirty high buyout clause in his deal. Not sure any Italian club could spend £30m-50m on a manager.
I did think exactly that just after I posted

I remember Potter this season and end of last. - getting lots of love for working up the away end or the north stand after a victory, shaking his fist and all sorts. And the love for shouting. “Seagulls” in the car park post Man Utd to a few youngsters captured on their phones z surprised they didn’t march him to his car on their shoulders.

Yet Now were led to believe he was rooted to the bench for three years , only getting up to have a pop at the fans about something or other.
