That was not the most important game of the season...not by a mile.

Newcastle was much more important.
.

Disagree. Newcastle was big but tonight was massive. Go out there get three points and job done. Against the second worst team In premier League history. A successful season secured. What bigger rallying call could there possibly be?

Some grips needed to be got. Shit performance, but also first shit performance in 5 games in which we’ve opened up a 7 point gap. Problems against the shifter teams in this league can be addressed in the summer. Thankfully we can look forward to the next 5 games against decent teams that we seem to be more comfortable with.

3 points tonight was worth no more than 3 points against Leeds next week, or if we draw our next 3.

So performances and results against Everton and Chelsea get forgotten about? We usually lose those games, but came away with 2pts. Swings and round abouts. You come across as a negative guy who is not happy unless they have something to moan about.

Maybe its just an Albion thing, maybe not.

Anyway, Potter In for years to come, then lets see where the negative nancys are if he makes us a top ten club in the future. I trust the judgement of those running the club and who know about football, not the entitled minority of fans.

My view is that this season has been one of the least enjoyable to watch in years, and yet I don't think much of it is his fault. Rather than bemoaning our luck at a totally dominant yet fruitless second half, today was just same old Brighton. Clown error at the back and we concede, followed by total domination, a sitter, a goal chalked off, and then another astonishing miss from six inches.

Clearly the buck stops with the manager but in all seriousness what would do that was any different? He's not a wizard, but couldn't he reasonably expect his front players to put away the tap ins, score from the penalty spot when you've had two awarded in one game, reasonably expect one of the six times we hit the goal frame to instead go in, and so on?

I really wish I could blame the manager as is normally the case when your team just gets shit result after shit result but I'm sorry, I actually feel for Potter a bit. His side isn't boring to watch, they don't shut up shop after ten minutes if they do take the lead, and they don't start games looking like they've come for a point. It's just they can't sodding score. That is what is so frustrating about this team

I could not have put this any better.

This is the best and at the same time shittest BHA team I have ever seen. Well not outright shit, but frustrating and desperately wasteful. We have "class" players with spoons on their boots. And half the problem is that our build-up is played at such GLACIAL pace. I've seen coral reefs form swifter than our attacks.

I just want this poxy season to end, with us just about scraping pitifully above the dreck underneath who we can't even beat anyway. Just get it done so I can get pissed off with England in a few weeks.

It is easier being an Albion fan when you unconditionally accept that sometimes we are inexplicably shit.

It’s not pathetic it’s just the “Brighton Way” and it is really frustrating. We’ll all be back on our feet anticipating watching us against Leeds next weekend though.

Word. I’ll go on record now and say Potter won’t get within a mile of the achievement of Sam Allardyce, who has obviously passed his heyday and wouldn’t advocate as an answer, in the Premier League.

Are you including Premier League Manager of the month awards? Sam has 6 BTW

Allardyce is a horrible toad of human being. Potter has already achieved not being that.

This is where I am.

Potter causes so much divide. He's either the worst in the world or the best manager ever depending on the result.

Rarely somewhere in the middle

Abso bloody lutely.

I am absolutely sick of football after this season and yet I can't wait for the Euro's which will almost certainly cause more kinds of disappointment!
