I refuse to believe someone who wears nice suit jackets and has excellent hair could possibly be a downgrade.

Maybe he will if he has fallen out that badly with his Burnley team mates, on last night of all nights.

The dictionary definition of "Saints-tinted spectacles". Jesus wept.

All the great performances were because of Erwin Koeman and all the terrible ones were down to Ronald.

He doesn't need a release clause to leave. We will get an offer and he will say he wants to play in the Premier League in a season with Euro 24 at the end of it. Potentially Man City buying him back and loaning him to Palace or something.

Sensible from Forest.

Make no mistake I would be delighted if we got him. Genuinely feels like a perfect fit, I don't think he will get another Prem job, he will need to get himself promoted into it, again. But yes as Turkish says too obvious an appointment for the out-of-the-box geniuses that have transformed our club.

I think that started way before Semmens rocked up. Mane, Van Dyke, Hojberg, Gunn, etc etc etc - good or bad we have always signed younger players with an expectation to sell onward. Sports Republic are the ones that took on an nice idea (that was demonstrated quite well with Livramento) and turned into the fundamental strategy of the whole club and lets make this the main thing we do and spunk all the money on it. Too clever by half. I can remember this time last year there were plenty of folk here who were enthusiastic about building a team of Livramentos but that was always pie in the sky for the reasons you say. You never win anything with kids.

Difficult to see a new manager turning things around at Forest, especially with the size of their bloody squad. Where do you start if the all those players gets a clean slate with the new boss with 7 or 8 games to go. Ooof. I think they'd deserve to go doen if they bin him. Cooper could be a great appointment for us next year, although always the risk of Adkins-at-Reading vibes.

Right, so there are plenty of teams who can have utterly shit form for the rest of the season and still get 35 points. We need top 10 form to get 35.

Leicester and Forest down and Derby promoted is my personal dream scenario so there is that.

Struggling to see how this makes any difference to us whatsoever but yeah.

I imagine that he is a Christian just like Hermann Göring.

It wasn't supposed to be an exhaustive list of every team that has ever been relegated. Cov went down before we went down the first time round so not really relevant at all.

6 wins in 29 but yeah let's just make out that we can knock out four wins from the next 9 games. Sure sure. "Many other teams fans" might be wondering where their final points come from but at least they can rest easy that they have more games than us and more points than us. One spot is gone, and it's us. Way back when we had some absolute forum clowns trying to tell us all that "the relegation fight doesn't even start until after Easter". I wonder where they are now.

Correct, or Stoke maybe. Fairly long standing Prem clubs sliding down and eventually out. The optimistic comparison is Burnley or Newcastle, who bounced back well first time. But yes Sunderland feels the most realistic comparison. We're absolutely nothing like Fulham who are basically the London Norwich yo-yoing up and down swapping places, only this time those two have split off to their extremes - Fulham into top half dreamland and Norwich back into mid table Championship sludge.

Brighton's greatest ever managers don't tend to end up managing at Crystal Palace. Try again.

If he's not our manager by the end of the week it's simply because we didn't try hard enough.

Punctuated by the delusion on here that we are somehow involved in a relegation tussle with five or six other clubs for the last few months. No, we've been non stop bottom and shite all season. Not for a moment have we been competing with other clubs.

Meaning a new manager coming in in November, with a mini pre-Season, more than half a season and a transfer window to go had a wonderful opportunity to turn it round.

The highest Brighton have ever finished is 9th. So come back when they've done 4 top eights in a row.

Don't worry lads, some forum genius will be along in a minute to tell us that we definitely don't need to win tomorrow, no sir, a point is absolutely fine and no problem at all.

Hahahahahahahaha what a twat

The problem with GM is he has never got out of the denial / anger stages. Posting up Daily Telegraph content he only half understands is just feeding that. He's a long long way from the acceptance stage, bless him 🙏

Do your piano wire routine again, it's been a while. What I like about it is how definitely not "nasty" it is, because you're simply a lovely guy x x x x
