I see you ‘Liked’ Cheeky Monkey’s comment aimed at me. In which case please don’t bother responding to me any further!What are you talking about? You are being very disingenuous for some reason.
The quote in context is this:
'When he was here he started crying over a bit of booing because we hadn’t scored for ages and forgot what a win was! What did he expect when he took his £60m contract. that being said death threats and threats to his family are completely out of order and typical of the Chelsea...'
The 'what did he expect' comment was regarding all the media scrutiny and overreaction with the Chelsea fans. It immediately condemns the threats as it should. Stop trying to link enjoyment at Potter's football problems with being happy that he is mentally suffering or that his family are being threatened. It is not the same thing!
Absolutely disgusting mate! As I said earlier I don't wish Potter well at Chelsea but certainly don't wish him harm and that includes verbally. It's fine to be booed and given the bird but, death threats against yourself and family members is totally unacceptableAgreed - what’s your take on the Potter death threats though?
Have to agree sometimes you just have to hold your hands up and say this isn’t for me. Hypia did eventually.Those factors are all true, but you can't state "he was never going to succeed" or blame results on the fans.
With the talent at his disposal he should be doing a lot better, he and his selections/tactics/motivation have been not good enough.
Other managers would have got more from those players. Potter is out of his depth and it shows.
Death threats against anyone doing their job is deplorable however bad they may of been.It becomes more understanding depending on the job, the impact of the job, how badly the job is done, and whether is was done badly nefariously. Boris Johnson and his fraudulent friends killed many and stole from the nation to line their bulging pockets It is understandable in those circumstances for some to descend to the level of death threats.
But due to your football team losing? Wow
Quite telling that he jacked it in the morning after (a thumbs-down from?) the Junior Seagulls Christmas Party. Out of the mouths of babes...Have to agree sometimes you just have to hold your hands up and say this isn’t for me. Hypia did eventually.
The manager left and a new was appointed two weeks later... no biggie, don't think Tony Bloom was that close to dissolving the football club.Our club was damned near ripped apart to satisfy his grand ambitions so I have little or no sympathy.
The guy that issued death threats to Maupay and his family was tracked and traced to Singapore and ended up in court. Same should apply to ****s issuing death threats to Potter and his familyDeath threats along with their cousins sexist and racist abuse seem to be becoming more and more popular. When I did my jury service 20 plus years ago one of the charges against the defendants was threats to kill. As I remember it it carried a potentially very hefty prison sentence.
How hard can it be to find these people and hit them with the full force of the law. Once some of these sad sacks get serious prison time then all the other trolls will stop.
If the threats are coming form overseas then surely it's not too hard for the social media platforms to present the evidence along with the individuals/clubs to the relevant authorities in whichever jurisdiction is responsible for the abuser.
Also absolutely Agree - it is disgraceful- no one should receive death threatsAgree, absolutely disgusting. As much as I find Chelsea’s results funny and want it all to go pear shape, there is no way he or his family should be getting death threats.
Absolutely this. Odds on when they trace it it'll be some dweeb in Asia or Africa who picked "his team" based on them winning a lot and has never set foot in Stamford Bridge. Nailed on Potter doesn't have anything to worry about from blokes on building sites in South West London bar a bit of booing.Most if not all the death threats are probably from armchair fans from afar looking at some of the crap they post on shitter and YouTube.
Oh do f*** off you sanctimonious bore, and when you have f***ed off, why don't you keep f***ing off and f*** off some more, and take your moral outrage and your f***ing exclamation marks with you. Absolute fucktard.
An absolutely CLASSIC flame/flounce combo executed with the sort of panache one rarely sees from newcomers. Top marks.And that was me, goodbye NSC, its been fun but its all over now. Many apologies heavy soul, I'm sure you're a top guy in real life. . Adios xx
Without being too flippant, he could sort his mental health issues out by leaving the Chelsea job. Not fair etc etc - however surely mental health comes first.I hope he sorts out his mental health issues.
