To be honest, I don't think he'll take the job if he is offered it like I've been told. When he's managed big clubs like Sunderland and Crystal Palace I don't think he would take a role where it's likely too late to save them.
Sorry, my posts are taking a while to appear as they need to be approved.
I'm friend of a friend of a member of his coaching staff from his Sunderland and Everton tenures.
I can understand why you think a former England manager would never manage little old Brighton, but the guy I know used to work in his coaching staff at Sunderland and followed him to Everton.
I've been told by a good source that contact has already been made. Could be in for the last four games to save us. I personally think this needs to happen and he would keep us up!
