Unsure where the loss of Potter leaves Brighton?

Such an open market. Marcelo 20/1😱
I’ll go with Cooper. He won’t be worried about buggering off. Done it before
That would leave Forest in a muddle for our game next Monday.

That’s a crap call by me. I don’t think it will be him.
Funny old game though.

Adam Lallana apparently taking over as temporary player-manager until a full-time replacement is hired.

Gives me Bryan Robson vibes :lol:

They're talking to Russell Martin and Nathan Jones. Both not good enough for the PL imo.

So with the train strike now cancelled, will the Brighton/Palace game go ahead IF games go ahead next week?

A potentially very decent appointment for Brighton.

Would have been a very decent Bielsa replacement tbf.

Teams play a decent style of football.

He has done some impressive things.

Overachieved with Sassuolo by managing back to back 8th placed finishes whilst managing to play decent football (despite having one of the smallest budgets in Serie A).

Only missing out on qualifying for Europe because of Goal Difference.

Moved to Ukraine to manage Shakhtar Donetsk

When the Russian invasion ended the Ukrainian football season he had had team 1st in the league with the best goal difference as well.

Would be decent appointment potentially.

Tony Bloom must be skint. Selling off all the family silver, now getting an out of work manager.

Chelsea were big on it in the late 90s with Gullit followed by Vialli.
