So not one of those managers has ever rescued a failing team from relegation?

Swansman, and yourself, seem to love quoting stats and figures. There are only one set of numbers that count, goals. Passes, turnovers, Xg, yards, sorry metres, covered, percentage of possession mean absolutely fxxk all.

Goals.

Goals is where it is at. And what might goals make? Points.

That is the be all, and end all. Relegation, or no relegation. Every place higher in the PL earns millions more than the one below. That is from a business objective, which I am sure TB is very aware of.

From a Brighton fans objective, it is all about winning, passion and pride. For a neutral it is all about playing the game in the right way. A neutral can do stats, a fan wants something to crow about, to their mates or anybody else for that matter.

I make no apology, if you and Swanny are the future of football, then best you start welcoming American Football, NFL, Major League Besaball and more. They just love statistics, for all you armchair bullshitters watching sport on your 85 inch screen with your reclining chair with three cup holders and a USB 4.0 in the armrest, and Uber Eats on speed dial.

Me, I will go to the match when I can.

But there are managers out there who have made their reputation by getting clubs out of a relegation scrap. Tony Pulis, Big Fat Sam, Neil Warnock etc etc. All three have been able to put fire in the bellies of the playing staff, GP would probably say that the players should be careful around a box of matches!
