    Disagree, just about any Championship club with ambition looking to change their manager would definitely be in for him imo. I think he may struggle to get a Premier League job until a team down the bottom decide to change manager next season. He does have a decent record of keeping teams up...

    Have I said he was rubbish? No I haven’t and he’s not. I have no agenda I would like him to take us to the next level but I feel he has reached his on what I’m seeing. Is it the players? Who knows but he is certainly part of the problem imo. If, as seems likely, TB sticks with him he will get...

    Nope, coming back from a goal down to win a game just once in two seasons in the Premier League is an absolutely appalling record however you dress it up

    I remember those times clearly but if being in the Premier League is going to mean watching the style of football we have been playing recently, season after season, then I will be getting dewy eyed about the bad old days. I was delighted when we changed it around and looked more attacking...

    I’d say you haven’t got a clue why some want him out personally. The two lacklustre and frankly pathetic defeats against Bournemouth and Cardiff were the tipping point for many. The Wolves and Spurs performances brought some back behind CH but the first half against Newcastle was also a big...

    Memory may be playing tricks here but I thought he was from Preston and in the same team as Mark Lawrenson Half right he is actually from Leicester according to Google but he did start out at Preston. We signed him from Manchester City

    I know you’re a comparative newbie to Brighton so wonder if you knew that Sussex hasn’t provided a decent striker in living memory as far as I’m aware. Solly may be the first if he continues to improve, if we can be generous in calling a goal scoring winger a striker. Could be wrong though...

    That doesn’t explain the many talented players at London clubs. Half of them are likely to be more scary out and about on the streets than the prowlers on the same street :wink:

    Can we tempt your manager? Maybe a swap?

    We are stuck with him/blessed to have him as manager. We’ll have to live with it :smile:

    If we get 12 of those thrashings in a season it’s only going to potentially make a difference of a point over the whole season too :smile: It’s not like we get many points from the top six anyway In fairness it would be even less fun than six games without a shot on target though.

    Charlton had finished 6th in the Premier League the year before they hounded Curbishley out so it’s not really comparable to where the Albion are imo, so a bad example. It seems that fans who hanker for anything better than we are currently seeing are automatically termed “entitled” and...

    Is this to do with being a Premier League club? If so just about all of them bring in more money than the manager gets to spend don’t they? It’s certainly not through on the field activities is it?

    So he’s not the best funded manager that Brighton have ever had? Not sure best funded in the Premier League was being suggested.

    How have you worked that out?
  18. Icy Gull

    [Albion] Hughton supporters

    You know that’s not our job but if you really think there’s not one out there you are in denial. There are people at the club paid big money for their recruitment skills. No managers that could come in and do a better job in the whole of the football world? Really? It would however be a risk...

    I totally agree, have we peaked with manager acquisitions? There are plenty of fans who seem to think so :smile: Let’s not even consider looking for better, we were lucky to get CH. I like CH and he has done a fantastic job, he’s not doing one at the moment though, imo. But as long as TB is...
