We have no manager, we have a head coach, we are the only club in Britain preparing for FFP, we have a man who signs player the coach doesn't want. This is not the club I and many grew up loving. Im sick of it. Time to revolt. Bring in a foreign manager with no knowledge of the English game by all means, but tell me his second signing wanted to be Keith Andrews? Time for a change somewhere along the line. :facepalm:

I saw another one of your posts on another thread calling for oscar to be sacked and assumed you were joking. I'm still not sure you can be serious after two league games but will take it you are. You can assume whatever you want with regards to signings but I suggest you have a look at the fans forum and see what Tony Bloom said. That nothing has changed with regards to transfers since he joined the club. Manager/ head coach says which positions he needs improving. Head of football operations identifies a list of targets whilst asking if the head coach/ manager has anyone particular. The head coach/ manager then decides which one he wants and then the head of football operations signs them. But obviously you know more than chairman Tony Bloom judging by your moronic posts. And give oscar some time. In disbelief as to how many 'fans' want instant success and call for them to be sacked after two league games.

Didn't realise Bloom was our manager, now you have told me. I'm a little worried, as thought he was chairman.

Managers dont run a football club, a chairman does, and as a Brighton fan you should know that, as Bill Archer should have taught you that. Managers, players, they come and go, some succeed, some fail, but its the owners that really set the agenda.

I think we probably had the biggest crowd at the weekend not knowing the Leicester att and we are having money issues, something isn't right

What money issues ? Tony is putting in his own money, up to the maximum loss permitted by FFP. The 8million loss is strategic for now, and we will run at loss level no matter what costs are cut, as we'll simply increase the playing budget with every pound saved.

I find it surprising that anyone is so blinded by money that they don't question things. I'm not saying anything is definitely wrong but the argument "Bloom spent £150m so he's beyond reproach" is stupidity in itself. I understand that the Cardiff owner has spent more than that but I'm sure the Cardiff fans didn't mind the change of colours at all ..... not. ALWAYS QUESTION !

You my friend are so far up your own opinion its beyond belief. Bloom took over when this club had nothing - Archer had sold it all and left us in Gillingham. Knight helped saved the club and Bloom paid the bills. We have the biggest support outside the tope flight and we have lost 3 games, big deal. Get over it, and think about the game against York City.

Bollox, I was told the budget was similar to last season. So far I have seen **** all spent on players. Please tell me if I am wrong?

Why have we spent £1 million on electronic advertising?

Bloom is a legend, not questioning that. If I was a player looking for a club. I would much rather Poyet sell me the club than Barber or Burke.

Bloom didn't start paying bills until approx 2005/06.

That is so but it still doesnt mean that TB is beyond making a mistake.

What most dont seem to appreciate is that yes it is only 3 games played 3 games lost but it is the manner in which we have lost that is worrying we look totally disorganized and as if nobody has told the player what their duties are. I do not question us following the route of most European teams with a coach being in charge but if that is the case let him show who is in charge and start organising the team. It probably isnt so but it appears that B & B are running the show and Oscar is just toeing the company line as a figurehead to take the stick

You really are a silly old thing aren't you?

If we'd been outclassed or made to look foolish then there might be some cause for concern.

We were not totally disorganised, don't be so hysterical. We did have some passages of play where we were a bit at sea, just as we did last year and the year before that under Gus. At other time we were slick and purposeful, particularly when we scored our goals. We lost the games becaiuse we didn't finish well enough and also have suffered from 3 poor refereeing decisions in each of the games. We restricted the opposition to very few chances.

There is not a scrap of evidence to suggest that Garcia is being hampered in his efforts to change the teams tactics,your imagination is running away with you.

Calm down and have some patience.

Nathan looked quite lively on the touchline yesterday. Is he still shagging Helen Chamberlain ?
