[Albion] Really, Potter has to go ?

[eastterracemike]

Fair enough, it's his opinion. His timing is well off though.

Timing certainly off now we've gained a very decent away point against a top 6 side.

 

[Mr Banana]

Harty will always say the most contrary thing possible. Fair play really.

I was thinking earlier that Potter may have a better chance of being sacked if we stay up.

Ian Hart's article in the Brighton & Hove Independent.

sorry if fixtures

Headline: Graham Potter should depart this summer even if Brighton avoid drop.

Surely headlines and articles like this defeat the object and have the potential to be divisive, I would have thought now is the time to get behind the manager and team.

If Ian Hart talked sense about the Albion, surely he would work for Radio Sussex? oops

I still believe that if Potter keeps us up we will improve next season, but if we are relegated I would bin him..

 

[Mr Putdown]

Does it take a Palace fan to tell you that you’re not going down?

FFS it’s Norwich, Bournemouth and Villa looking likely to go down, not your lot.

I thought TB performance this week was telling , GP is not getting sacked , felt like TB was trying to convince us all he hasnt made a mistake.

 

[Sarisbury Seagull]

I'm certainly in the category of must stay no matter what.

Fully agree.

Terrible article... just trying to get hits... Tony's get behind the team message a great one, and makes Harty look like a tw@t IMHO...

Window licker

 

[LamieRobertson]

He should keep views like that buried until the end of the season.

Getting behind the club pfft....likes a bit of the limelight doesn’t he

Potter stays, Bloom stays, the rest of you can do what you want

Just heading home after watching Brentford v MASSIVE. Brentford played some wonderful stuff and MASSIVE were poor. Very, very poor. I’d still want to see Potter take on the Championship. Promotion would be very difficult but I’ve no doubt at all that we’d be competitive in that division.

You do realize how bad relegation would be, right?

Only for TB in fairness, I’d be over by the first game of next season

We're meant to be top 10 in the PL not top 10 in the Championship

More entitled bollocks

Potter has to go because his office desk is really really untidy.

Are you actually a supporter? Unbelievable naivety

Fair enough, it's his opinion. His timing is well off though.

It's not though is it? Articles like this are written by people who want to appear ahead of the game, it is akin to the many on here, who say "we're going down... But I hope we don't" that way they can be safe in the knowledge that if we do get relegated, they can say I told you so, and if we don't then "I hoped we wouldn't."

The author of this article is following the same principle...

He knows in reality there is little chance of Potter bring sacked IF we were relegated, but it gives him the opportunity to say, "told you so" - he is also safe in the knowledge that there is a good chance that this time next year we would still be looking over our relegation shoulders (as per half the division), so he can then say, told you so we should have sacked him.

Basically a win win for shit journalism.

Interesting logic.
You'd fancy him to improve us in the prem next season, but not to take us back up or at least make us competitive in the Championship?
