Re: Sullivan out!
I heard a couple of years ago that Sullivan was outvoted by Kretinsky, the Gold family and the main minority shareholders to put a DOF in charge of transfers. This was apparently 'sold' to Sullivan as the modern way forward if they were ever to be able to sell their shareholdings when a future billi...

Re: Sullivan out!
The constant in all this is the pattern of Sullivan & Brady's business style. Whenever they try to honour the promise of "World class team in a world class stadium" they fail. They sacked progressive Zola for top level 'experience' of Avram Grant who relegated us. They sacked Grant to ...

Re: Summer Transfer Window 2025 | Official Thread
It's typical Sullivan so expect no new players until late in the next window even if a few player sales are made. A big loss on the accounts needs to be averted in the only way Sullivan knows and that means player sales of say £60m comes off bottom line losses less the players' values still shown on...

Are we sure that this is a Sullivan buy? Might he be someone that Potter wants?

Re: Potter Out
There's a grave danger in allowing Potter to select players for next season. The facts are clear for all to see. Potter is not a PL manager any longer and probably never was. He did well in Denmark and then an up and coming Brighton where the owner devised the smart, identification for player acquis...

Re: American Investor
For the love of Trevor Brooking, just hurry up and get on with it Kretinsky in buying all these fuckers out and in turn stop any know-nothing Yank pretenders looking for a quick buck. I doubt that this will happen as Kretinsky must be too busily wrapped up in his new ownership of Post Office. That'...

Re: Tomas Soucek
Tommy is a conundrum isn't he? He scores goals regularly, makes several defensive clearances and headers every game and covers a lot of ground while looking lazy. He isn't entirely comfortable on the ball so lays it off quickly rather than run with it and be challenged. If Moyes or Leeds wants him a...

Re: Potter Out
I'm delighted for Potter as he isn't going anywhere it seems. At least Potter showed that he can win games but I do wonder at his selections, tactics and substitutions even though it worked out yesterday. However, this Man Utd was not the old Man Utd who would have definitely scored and punished our...

Re: Squad Building for 25/26
I'm a bit surprised we are keeping Antonio to be honest. 35 and returning from a badly broken leg seems an unlikely choice even as a back-up striker for next season. Or perhaps they aren't telling him until he is fully recovered and can be tested fully?

Re: Potter Out
Let's be honest here. For Sullivan, the fans count for nothing and the only thing he fears is losing PL status and TV £millions. I reckon it's all in Potter's hands for the next four remaining games. Lose all four and Sullivan will definitely fire him. A couple of wins and draws will keep Potter in ...

Re: Potter Out
I am sure that I remember Sullivan saying a while back that "Potter wasn't the reason Brighton were successful, the owner identified players that would be great in PL" or words to that effect. It just shows how knee jerk Sullivan is in appointing managers. He slagged off Mourinho in the p...

Re: Potter Out
Can you imagine listening to Potter’s word salads day after day as players do? That’s what I meant when I said he has an academic’s bearing. Most of my school teachers were boring wankers mind. What bothers me is the look on Bowen’s face at the finish. It was the face that said “I’d be better off a...

Re: Potter Out
The Potter situation needs sorting out come close season. If we can't win any games under him in the next few weeks then he will have to be fired. There is absolutely no point in making Potter signings then sacking him weeks after the season's start. For me he has the bearing of an academic but lack...

Whatever anyone says about us not being a club like Sheffield Wednesday, Leeds or Portsmouth, the reality is that WHU is massively supported and deserves to be constantly battling for Euro positions. Unfortunately, Sullivan & Brady appear to be more interested in PL survival and getting cheap de...

Re: Potter Out
Potter should never have been given a shot at managing West Ham if we truly had ambition. His PL record is mediocre. At Brighton 15th; 16th; & 9th. Sacked by Chelsea for an 11th place first season finish. So why was a manager appointed who's highest finish in 4 seasons at PL level was 9th? We al...

Re: Potter Out
Potter has a reputation that isn't deserved. He took Brighton to the heights of avoiding relegation with 15th & 16th finishes before taking them to 9th in his 3rd season. On that basis Chelsea took him on and he got them to 11th. Potter is another mid-table mediocre manager that will probably av...

Re: January Window
I suspect Fullfrug was Steidten's sensible top class option to giving 20 year old Jhon Duran time to get settled in London and playing regularly. I think we all know that the problem is that our Chairman wouldn't cough up another £5m to complete on Duran making Steidten look daft with just the Fullk...
Re: Sullivan
Gank Sullivan only owns about 39% iirc. So he isn't the owner, just the biggest shareholder. Sullivan can be outvoted but it needs most of the board to go against him now that he cannot rely on the Gold family since David Gold's death. As an example, I heard from a friend of a friend with supposed b...
