Preaching to the choir mate... each in a different season Well that’s alright then. Three of them as welcome at the club as hepatitis and the other whose eye for goal has got conjunctivitis.

Where has this desire for Hughton come from? A bloke who has banjoed 15M on Jurgen Locadia, 6M on Florin Andone and proceeds to play 35 year old Glenn Murray instead. A tad ironic since our own manager is getting pelters for potentially signing a 30 year old on a free... If the said 30 year old, matches the goal stats of Murray over the next 3 seasons, I will be more than happy.He scored 23 goals in the championship promotion season aged 33.

Absolutely Name a manager who hasn't blown money on a bad signing or two. Bottom line is he's got an excellent track re it's and if Murray is scoring goals then why wouldn't he pick him?

Has he actually though? Or is he another McCarthy/Warnock who is a good Champo manager but can't cut it in the Prem? His record in the transfer market as a top flight manager is pretty rancid with a few exceptions. What he did at Brighton he did at Norwich in remarkably similar circumstances.

Mid table finishes with Newcastle (12th) and Norwich (11th), two seasons in the Prem with Brighton. I call that pretty good.

It's not racist I don't think but I do think it's a fuckin mad decision.
Keeping a club like Brighton in the Prem is an achievement in itself.
Chris Hughton, Darren Moore are stupid sackings by pig thick chairmen.

So you've singled out half a season to back up your argument. The same Norwich fans who had a good number of pissed off fans with their manager 7 months ago?

Erm, no, I’ve singled out a season in which he spent significant money on the likes of Van Wolfwinkel and others and pretty much relegated Norwich playing eye bleedingly bad football, and then the £70m he spent in the summer on a number of players who didn’t play much while leading his team towards a relegation battle they should never have been anywhere near. Again, playing just rancid, negative stuff.

The real world is that way ----> He was never relegated in the Prem and Norwich weren't in a relegation place when he was sacked but ignore the facts and focus on what you can find to suit your argument whilst ignoring the other 75% of what happened.

Fuck me that’s rich, if you want to talk about facts look at their results and look at what he spent. Norwich weren’t in a relegation place but you can be in a battle without being in the bottom three (see Hughes, Mark) which they very much were. He created the mess that got them relegated, again after significant investment. The real world is when you’re a team like Brighton, you spend £70m, those players make pretty much no impression whatsoever, and results and performances get significantly worse, there are consequences. 75% is generous maths, to say the least.

If Villa stay down then presumably they would be stronger Huddersfield look likely to do little. Fulham? No idea but Parker looks a shaky appointment I think Wednesday will go up not because they are any good (as we saw at the Bet365) they are ordanairy, but because history shows Wednesday and Sheffield United follow each other about the divisions. The Championship won't be stronger or weaker next season it will be the same as most seasons where everyone beats everyone. Norwich and Sheffield United have been consistent (fair play to them) without shining quality.

I like Chris Hughton as both a guy and manager - and would have him here, no doubt. He has underperformed badly this past season or so though, wasting 70m, and in football, I'm afraid that sackable territory with his club on the slide.
The racism accusation is just the norm now from some quarters - Its tired and overplayed and threatens to create more divisiveness than it prevents.

Now that it looks a certainty that Potter and his team are heading to Brighton at a cost of £3million, how ironic would it be if Swansea were to take Hughton and then Swansea got promoted next season and Brighton relegated?

On a scale of 1-10, 1 being not very ironic at all and 10 being about as ironic as you could get I would say that scenario would be a 9.5.

I am glad we didn't chance him now. Potter has shown a lack of loyalty to Swansea, one season and he is off - if he had signed for us would he have fucked off to Brighton just the same ?
A quitterall like move imho
