[Albion] Potter: nasty post match interview

[Mancgull]

I think he’ll soon need to be more worried about his current club’s fans turning on him. As one has stated, ‘we have Arsenal and then Newcastle next and we could be in a worse position then’. Tough couple of games for them after this trouncing!

Good point. More I think about it, it was a bit if a snidy comment. No one is asking you to say sorry Potter so whether you should or shouldn't say sorry is irrelevant. But given the choice, yeah go on then say sorry for joining that nasty, homophobic, racist, soulless bowl of a football club 6 games intoa new season and dismantling our coaching and recruitment set up.

Enjoy your Chelsea history lesson.

That 'toxicity' helped us win the game today

I don't think it did. I think what helped win the match was a crowd who got behind their team in a passionate way. I was listening to the radio and the home end was willing them to win.

Maybe he needs to look at his clubs supporters …especially the one guy you can see at the end of this clip lol

They’ve already got a Potter In and Out gang split

He might wanna apologise to the railway staff at Falmer station, that had to handle a sudden early surge 5 minutes before the final whistle as Chelski fans couldnt get away fast enough.

Nah. Hostility made the difference.
All the difference

It definitely did. Cucurella was rinsed on and off the pitch. Potter didn’t know where to put himself. Only Billy Reid showed a pair of bollocks.

On the Chelsea fans forum some want Potter out as he is out of his depth !

Are you on the right forum ? This is Brighton !

Ben Roberts got a particularly torrid time of it, when he had the thankless task of getting the replacement keeper warmed up in front of the North Stand at HT. Did he not like that

I particularly like how he tried to be a bit pally and get a bit of bantz going when taking the corners and just got continued abuse. ****.

Of course... they lost a football game.

 

[The Wookiee]

Anybody else notice that none of our players, what I saw, looked Potter in the eye when he shook their hands after the game ?

Karma is a bitch

I don't think Mrs Potter had a great day on her return to Sussex

I think if you were there you would have seen it differently. I have no animosity to Potter but during the game, all bets are off. The toxicity certainly added to the atmosphere and that would have helped our players.

Corrected.

Incorrected.

Corrected.

I did have a chuckle at the 'getting sacked in the morning' although I was a little nervous about how early it was being sung.

Expectation and entitlement are potent bedfellows. He's not going to get away with 1 home win in a calendar year and 7 home games without a goal with that lot. Not that he will - my right arsecheek could probable chisel out a few results with the array of International talent he has at his disposal there. But patience is not a "thing" at clubs like Chelsea, no matter how much Boehly wangs on about it being a long term project.

If they find themselves languishing outside the top 6, GP will not survive it. There were already signs of fissures with the players today. The captain, Thiago Silva, was signalling at the bench (ie Potter) after the 2nd goal went in with what looked like a "WTF is going on here ??" type gesture. If players - TOP players - start getting the willies about what Potter is asking them to do, then thats a dangerously slippery slope. Potter doesn't have the kind of credit in the bank that the high profile, experienced (mainly foreign) coaches have. Once his methods are deemed not to be working, he'll be in a Sky Sports studio quicker than you can say Tim Sherwood.

Saw it with AVB at Chelsea and managers that actually won stuff with them, when the fans turn they are gone soonish.

Footballs So much more Fun with Pantomime Villains to direct the animosity towards
And Even more satisfying with a well deserved Win
