Oh gosh. I didn’t realise it was that simple.
Potter out and Teddy - my three year old grandson who loves football and got a Brighton kit for Christmas -in
Well it's 21-31 now and we've just gained a point from a disaster so I'm well pleased but never doing that again.
Well imagine how I feel the games over, we're ht at 1-3 I don't know the final score and still have the second half to read through, I must be effing mad
And so glad I stuck with the lads well done boys UTA

Again I’m sorry Potter has left you in such a state that it’s impossible to imagine anyone else in the entire world of football being able to do the job effectively. My main case against Potter is that he has totally resigned too many Brighton fans to mediocrity as their only possible common sense

If you are against potter then any sane Brighton fan would want him to stay.

Needless to say I strongly disagree.
No need to be sorry, and Potter has not left me in a state.
Shame we missed out on Big Sam, currently setting the world alight at WBA.

Hmm. Other managers are available in the very big world of football, doubt 5-10% of fans here had ever heard of Potter before he was linked to job

That’s the job of the expert recruiters the club employs
Whatever Potter said at half-time worked, and we need more of that - too many times we looked lethargic and uninterested. Last night, the players looked hungrier than they had in the past 3 months and there were more bottle in the 2nd half than I can remember, we played a bit freely, bit more risky and that "foul" Trossard made was ridiculous, barely touched the player and that finish was sublime.
That said, in the first half we were pretty shy going forward - we didn't probe space enough, didn't try and create passing options enough and ultimately didn't create a huge amount of chances. Connolly's goal was a fantastic little finish and I think that's the kind of goals we need more of.
Something's up with Burn, last season he was fairly reliable but this season he's become more of a liability. I cannot fault him for the own goal, bad luck and we've had plenty of deflected goals conceded this season. His rash challenge on Troare though, unexcusable.
All that said, first time in a while where I thought Potter's subs made a difference and credit where it's due - Potter got us that point. Maupay's penalty will hopefully reignite his confidence after so many misses, nothing to say about Dunk other than L E A D E R.
Let's hope this is the change of our fortunes,

Funnily enough they’ve chosen Potter.
You haven’t a clue have you, somethings never change.

You mean just like they chose Hughton? Actually some things do change, but alas time stands still in your little world

After the first goal and before the Wolves goal there were two runs which were not picked out ball went back rather than forward. We are still not hitting into the space behind the opposition enough personally think that is our best option though clearly should not be the only option.

I loved Dunk’s post match interview, he really did sound like he cared and was onboard to me

If we are going to bin the inexperienced tinkerman who has no clue I assume we are going to do it with someone who does have a track record at our current level, just just like we did when gamble Hyypia failed, when signing CH. We had all heard of him.
It follows therefore that as some fans want someone who knows what they are doing at this level, as they don’t believe Potter does, that we will have heard of him.
It is very unlikely we are going to replace a gamble with another unproven gamble considering where we are in the table.
So there ya go, now name him

So, your suggestion is that we simply wait until someone else is recruited and then when they have a bad run we can than decide they're shit but offer no alternatives. Maybe for consistency we could do the same with all the players we recruit.
Not my job Guv, I simply point out the shit, someone else's job to clear it up
