I could put £50 on Howe and make him favourite. Means nothing.

I can't see him going to Everton. Their last manager was a Champions League winner. They will want someone of a similar ilk.

Why would he go to Everton?
We will be past them in two seasons if he sticks with us.
Trusting Bloom to back him with some cash.

We did try telling some of the Potter out lads, but would they listen
Potentially our best manager ever IMO.

Pure speculation. When Potter came to Brighton it was for the long term. Family is settled here, kids at school etc. He's not the sort of guy to commute to a job like Jose M. Also, importantly we've given a hands off message, we have a long term contract with him which would mean a big compensation package for us, and we've stated that we wouldn't sack him even if we are relegated.
No certainty of course, but we hold the cards, not Everton.

Managers are different to players in that sense as for every position a shortlist appears, presumably by bookies with sources close to the hiring club and reflects a pool of people they’re interested in.
Players moving or seeking a move dont then leave behind a similar pool based replacement approach so the agent’s sense an opportunity to strike up supposed interest from say Liverpool, when actually they’re targeting a move to a slightly lower club but for a higher fee or alternatively a better contract at their existing club.
I don’t think manager’s agents tout in a similar fashion.
I can see why Everton would LOVE GP - give him a project with a timeline to match stadium completion and be challenging for Europe or honours and throw shit loads of cash at him to achieve it. Whilst that might look appealing I suspect and hope that he has similar ambitions with us minus the cash. Expect what is most likely at the end of the summer is a new contract for GP with us and further assurances from TB of our ambitions and how he can achieve them.

Months of this shit about players and manager going to go yet.
If Ben White plays and puts in a MOTM performance, NSC meltdown guaranteed, I might even join in
I genuinely think Everton is the best managerial job in the Premier League. They have comfortably the highest budget in the league of any club that DOESN'T come with huge expectations.

Can't see any team with top 6 aspirations going for him yet, let's not forget we only just scraped relegation and failed miserably in beating most of the relegation candidates around us.
Maybe they've seen the team play though.

Not seen such Bravery!
Naylor Says No.

You would hope so! Though I think they would have short memories given their appointment of Marco Silva, who had similar characteristics to Potter, and how that ended.
They also appointed Allardyce and the ultra-pragmatic Ancelotti with similar poor results... and they are going to have to appoint someone regardless of "short memories".
Everton fans usually strike me as being pretty good and knowledgeable about stuff. I assume it's because most of the tosser element of the city ends up on the red team.
