I mean, hate might be a strong word for anything in football, but I think I get close enough in this case.

I thought I did, but he held his finger under his nose and said "I can't be Graham Potter, Graham Potter doesn't have a moustache". The resemblance was uncanny.

I'd love there to be a nice way of sacking somebody, but is waiting in the car park for him to turn up any better? Is doing it over the phone a nice way to do it? Take him out for dinner at the end of the season, thank him and then say "oh, by the way, we're sacking you. Sorry about that." To be...

You'd hate him too if somebody were forcing you at gunpoint to sit through all of his boring, TEDIOUS press conferences.

I read that story a while ago, on here. I don't know who runs these things at Brighton, but in a lot of industries (particularly banks and anything financial) your access cards and logins are all cancelled as soon as the decision to sack you's been made (ie before you find out about it). If I...

I'd throw the Amex being built in there as well. Promotion to the Premier League. Lewis Dunk and Solly March's births. And signing several of the current squad. On the Potter point, since he'd justifiably get some blame if he'd been sacked at that stage of the season and then we'd been...
