The fact we took over £80 million from that club and ended up with a better LB, a better manager, and a better league position is just hilarious.
That's a very useful summary of what I normally spend five or six minutes spluttering out. I think I'll borrow that sentence, if that's OK with you.

Ex-Brighton boss Graham Potter opens up on Chelsea troubles​


Graham Potter has revealed his family life and mental health have been affected by troubles at Chelsea.

Great summing up and conclusion by the Arsgus.

Tickets for Albion's trip to Chelsea, as well as games at Tottenham and Bournemouth, go on sale next week.

Feel sorry for him, doesn't deserve that. Chelsea have a worldwide fan base and their permanently online section as with any big club seem to be the most rabid. Aiming threats at kids is no good

Quite glad we don't have an army of foreign plastics doing our bidding on twitter to be honest.
Nobody deserves that, but what did he expect? Bringing up Tuchel’s pre-season is weak. He’s doing himself no favours with these press conferences.

I agree. But this is just another reason why Potter was never a good fit at Chelsea and how the bags of cash affected his usual good judgement. I’d not be surprised if the threats came from some of their London based supporters though. They have some of the very worst, scummiest fans in the Country.

A nightmare.

Death threats against his family. I don’t care what he’s done or what’s he has said he doesn’t deserve that. He’s a good guy, despite what some of our fans think, and that level of abuse is totally out of order .
It totally is. It’s dispicable.

I personally don’t like the chap given how he left us, who he left us for and the mass exodus he caused. I’ve enjoyed watching Chelsea plummet and Potter not do so well but I’m a bitter, twisted individual with a short memory. Boo him by all means. We all know how much he enjoys that. But death threats and abuse to his family is too far and has no place at all.

Hopefully the folk who sent these will be stupid enough not to have masked their IP address. Some of them probably are. Knock knock...

Think 80% would fit into this category - 100% the last bit obvs…

I agree - wouldn’t say I don’t like him as such - in football terms I don’t I guess. Seems a decent well rounded bloke but it’s all panto innit.

"Sub optimal pre season" ! How sub optimal was it for us to have you jump ship and then come back for key members of the coaching and recruitment staff? But for our superb succession planning we could have gone into free fall.

Now, one of the reason these arseholes have threatened his kids is the ‘hilarious’ tweets that dozens have sent with a pic of him on our pitch with his wife and kids. They would have almost definitely known about his family etc from these ‘joke’ tweets as it made it easily accessible in the public domain. People do not think before putting these sorts of over the mark tweets out there. It appeared on here the other day and there’s dozens - something about how will he feed his family - don’t even get it myself.

I’m also 99% convinced Potter regrets leaving us for Chelsea now. Won’t ever admit it, but just shows chasing the big bucks and highest elite level isn’t for everyone. Cucurella and maybe Biss will probably think the same deep down.
