[Albion] Press conference 4.30 today........

[symyjym]

I hope this is true. The last thing we want is to be done for illegally tapping up a manager!

Officially two days ago. Hypothetically speaking weeks ago I am sure.

After his on the pitch fawning to the Kilmarnock fans on the last day of their season.

Please don't make him hold a scarf above his head. Please, just don't.

They listened.

That is even worse.

I give it 11 matches before the "we haven't progressed how we should" and the clamor for his sacking begins. This despite the fact any Scottish International players playing in Scotland are actually playing in a league akin to League 1/2. It's an absolutely no-win job - why it even gets air time is beyond me.

It that an Ikea looming over the outer fence?

Kazakhstan 3 0 Scotland reveals their talentless pool of players.

Well, that’s been an eventful week. Finishing 17th and in the end just two points above Cardiff. Chris Hughton axed - super shocked at that one. Graham Potter - who? - being touted as favourite for new manager. A couple of other names being bandied about, one half of the Neville brothers. Graham Potter’s CV looks very promising, could do a job and all that. Swansea offer him a new deal - the Albion sitting comfortably awaiting their man. Graham Potter says adios to Swansea, brings all his coaching staff, signs on the dotted line and enthuses about Tony Bloom et al, the Amex facilities and holds up the shirt and scarf as confirmation that HE’s the man.

Welcome Graham! Well done Tony Bloom, you certainly didn’t hang around on this one, let’s hope the team will be in more of a hurry on the pitch come August as well.

Quite. No disrespect to the position, but it isn't often the best player in your team is the left-back.

 

[el punal]

The Greyhound.

Okay, and . . .

Sorry if this has already been mentioned, however there's a great interview with Graham Potter on Seagulls TV you can watch on the website. OK, he's only coming out with the usual platitudes but he's very eloquent and comes across really well.

I hope you are wrong as that would be illegal.

Bloom said that he has had his eye on him for 4 years and you cannot police indirect contact and general chat. In any case Swansea have agreed to compensation which wouldn't happen if there was a legal problem.

 

[bhafcjack]

So excited to see what he can bring. Really looking forward to next season now, UTA

Robertson, Fraser, Snodgrass, Bridcutt McGinn, McBurnie, McTominay. Not entirely talentless

Agree. One thing for sure is we wont be parking the bus every week

No doubt TB’s super de luxe machine whirred for a while, analysing the reports and stats from around the world, and spewed out the name of the coach most likely to do us some good. Trust in TB and his machinery! All will be well.

The newly opened windows of the bus will be getting peppered with shots flying straight through them as we rack up home results of 1-6, 2-7, 0-4 and 3-5.

 

[Simontheseagull]

Seems another low key type of person rather than a me, me, me type like Poyet. I wonder if he will ship anyone out to put a warning on to anyone who won't buy into his methods

He looks and talks just like a Gareth Southgate clone. Just missing the magic waistcoat.

Bridcutt? Really?
