Exactly and couldn't the same words "brave", "a risk" and "going horribly wrong" have been applied if we had kept the faith with Chris? Don't get me wrong as I have ultimate respect for the man, but things needed to change.

Yes they did.

Out went the Manager. Out has gone 4-4-1-1 (one would assume) and staying are the majority of the players.

But what if 4-4-1-1 was the preferred system and the under performing players were sold?

Here is an alternative reality........

TB: What went wrong Chris?

CH: The club want a 4-3-3 or a 3-4-3 and signed the players for it. I agreed to give it a try because I didn’t want to rock the boat but I’d really like to go back to my 4-4-1-1. Let’s get the U23s playing that system too as I can’t understand why they continue to play with 3 up front. I’m not going to pick the youngsters if they’ve not been indoctrinated with my style of football.

TB: What next then Chris?

CH: We need rid of these forward players who don’t fit my 4-4-1-1. Bin off Ali J, Locadia and Andone. I don’t really need Bissouma either because I can’t trust him.

TB: O.K. But who do we get in?

CH: That Oli McBurnie is like a young Glenn Murray, I’ll have him please. As the Argie is stuck in Argie-land, I’ll take Powell as a back up to Groß in the 10 position. Give me a winger to replace Ali-J and the now perma-injured Izquierdo and we’ll be cooking.

TB: Where will we finish?

CH: I guarantee no worse than 15th

TB: Done! Good luck me old boy! Just one more thing, I’m going to sign Shane Long.

CH: I resign.

Yep, said it another thread.

We do have a lot of fans with rose tinted glasses.

When you don’t live around Brighton or Sussex, people can’t really work out why we have done what we have done.
