I'd give him a minimum of 46 next season with his own players.

Get rid before the start of the season. So 0.

Has to have a full season. We cannot have yet another season of change. Continuity will get us where we want to be.

At least until Christmas, people need to be patient, let a new squad settle in.

If this carries on. In the words of Yoda "Poisoned chalice Is Brighton. No manager will go"

If we are in a relegation fight around January, with players he brought to the club, then we should be looking for a replacement.

Exactly this. We'd end up with a merry-go-round of six month journeymen managers, all failing then moving on if we're not careful. Continuity and stability and time, does it give that option on FIFA 15?
In a word....no.

Give him a chance to prove it over a Season at least with his own players. Then make an educated assessment.

Not sure we have a choice, he has done what he was brought in to do...almost, so deserves the chance. I question whether he will be allowed to get his own players and also whether he will be boring us to death next season. It's telling that it took him eight months to get a job after his Norwich sacking.

Until Christmas, but we will be stuck with Best for 3 years!

I believe he is. It's just the squad he has inherited aren't good enough and quite frankly aren't up to the task. Bar a few player's.

Up the Albion!
If the board were serious about a promotion push & are willing to invest on the playing side, then we should go out & get Warburton & his staff. Not fair on CH, but life isn't fair.
I would like nothing more than for CH to prove my doubts wrong.

No kidding.
I mean it: if even Mr bloody nice guy Hughton becomes the latest poor sod to walk the Albion manager's office gangplank this summer, then it's abundantly clear to everyone - bar the most demented of drooling club sycophants - that there is a SERIOUS problem behind the scenes with how this club is run. And that's a problem that will urgently need to be addressed if things are ever, ever to improve.
Personally, I've long suspected that that's the case, really ever since the Poyet debacle. These are self-inflicted wounds, IMHO. Honestly, what a farce.

Not sure he's the best man for the job, but he is the best that we have and after the past couple of years, we need to give him a full season to build what he can from the current mess before we let someone else in.
He needs a chance with his own players and we, as a club, need to show that anyone coming in will at least be allowed to see out the season in the job - other we'll never attract a good manager to work for us.

He should be able to improve the squad he inherited but he hasn't. I hope I'm proven wrong next season but based on what I've seen so far he was the wrong choice. Bloom panicked. Instead of leaving Jones in charge for another couple of weeks, until better candidates were looked at.
