One prioritised sorting things out on the pitch first, the other built a 'palace' for eunuchs without a king
Our No.1 target appears to be Jones if the noises coming out of the club are to be believed so the OP need not worry about him going to Palace. What an underwhelming appointment Jones would be, hardly inspiring as he was second in command to the person who has led us on this 19 match run without a win.
This is footballing torture, one minute I'm miserable because we seem stuck with Hyppia, then elated as both he and Burke depart followed by misery again as the prospect of Jones being given the job gathers pace.
Rumour up here is that Irvine will be sacked tonight and they will target the usual suspects - Pulis (fans favourite) Hughton (ex Birmingham would not be popular) and Sherwood (probably cost more than their Chairman wants to spend).
Just ignore all his other coaching acheivements and background then! Jones won't get the job, but I hope he does remain at the club. I know someone who was involved at academy level at Charlton, and Jones was very well regarded as a bright up and coming coach within the game, they were gutted to lose him
I would imagine that there'll be a couple of options for pulis in the next few weeks. Leicester or West Brom very close to being available I would think. Leicester would be the best fit in terms of set up but is there really the cash there? They clearly didn't want to splash out in the summer and if they didn't rate or trust Pearson they've had quite a while to get rid.He was waiting for Ashley to sack Pardew.
Pulis will turn up at Leicester, they are promising to spend the sort of money that he wants, which with the greatest respect to Brighton, you haven't got right now because of FFP.
Robinson and Howe are very similar. Have spent/been allowed a considerable period of time building up competitive squads, have become big fishes in a small sea and are reluctant to move elsewhere.
I just think he represents failure as equally as Hyppia and we need a fresh start, I couldnt care less about his background, he did nothing as assistant to Hyppia to suggest he is the man to take over.

I can understand someone wanting to stay in Dorset, but Milton Keynes?
Burnt through Chairmen? Noades and CPFC2010 were/are very stable influences. Goldberg was of course an aberration, but even Jordan was at the club for over five yearsTrue. Does it not worry you the fact you seem to have pretty much consistently burnt through chairman in the last 20 years?
You are probably right, but whatever the right or wrongs are, I am glad we have Bloom, someone well backed with money, with the clubs intentions at his heart, rather than the constant merry-go-round at Palace.
I don't give a shit about Pulis one way or another, but what a stupid thing to post. You're not Tony Pulis so you haven't a clue, in which case why post as though you are stating a fact?
Finding it hard to hate Brighton today
we have something in common.
were both shit and have no manager.
The BroadfieldSurely the only solution to this widespread chaos is a merger between the two clubs. The only sticking point is which stadium do we use
