Potter Potter Out

Post THUNDERCLINT »

Had enough of this arogrant no mark now.  

11 games, 27% win ratio and 0.66 goals per game.

Either the break clause is true or this flake quits otherwise were proper fucked.

But that means your whole outlook is judging a manager on what players they buy and solely that 
not how they coach the players they have, how they set up their team, the starting XI and the tactics they use, for me that’s what being a coach is mainly about, and Potter is worse than that than all our previous managers 
How about we give a manager half a fucking chance.

Fucking sick and tired of some of you cunts banging on about fire the coach every 5 minutes. It’s all you know.

i remember the same cunts banging on about bringing Amorim in. 

Give it a rest your track record is worse than Potters you cunts!
 
Wow are you ever a drooling spastic 

you class 5 months and 16 games as 5 minutes 
and say that Amorim has a worse track record than Potter, is that the same Amorim who though not doing great at Man U has a higher points per game ratio than Potter and also has titles under his belt as a coach 

Do you think football scouts need to watch players play 100 times before they asses how good they are?
West Ham does actually have some fans that can tell how good or bad a player or coach is without having to wait a year to decide 
 
 
Yeah, I’ve noticed just how insightful these so called self
proclaimed expert fans are ffs!

Real fucking impressive I must say.

If you ever want proof how deluded and biased the majority of our fan base are you’ve only got to look at the fact they think Amorim is doing a shit job at Man Utd and that’s a fact in their eyes, but at the same time they say it’s too early to judge Potter

someone explain how there’s any logic behind that?

Potter has been utterly underwhelming with their squads but not sure you can judge the man fully with no spend.
What do you do then?
Sack him & allow Sullivan to pick a 4th manager in 12 months?
Does THAT bloke get some money to spend?

I'm not having a go, but there's literally nothing to get excited about in the 5 months he's been here.  I just wouldn't mind a tiny percentage of your optimism for next season.

Was more that I wanted to use that quote.  I was pretty optimistic and thought we were improving for a time and a bit unlucky with a few results.   That optimistic has long gone, he has a massive job on his hands and doesn't seem up to the job.

I’ve not met anyone who would describe themselves as one of Potters ‘biggest supporters’ as we sit here today
Just some that think sacking another manager & allowing the little cսnt Sullivan to spin the wheel again isn’t likely to improve anything

It does seem like the biggest dullards, and people who don't actually bother to watch, never mind attend, the game are his biggest supporters.

The results from other Clubs has been very favourable, the media have given him an easy ride, the Club have backed him, the fans too have given him and continue to give him as much time as possible and yet he's given little in return in either results or performances. Imagine how bad it really could have been had there been pressure which next season will undoubtedly bring, he'd melt quicker than Katie Price under a sunbed.

This Club, just like the Chelsea job was, is too big for him to manage and he admitted as much in 1 of his recent press conferences managing 62,000 West Ham fans. And if he struggled badly to cope now when the pressure is totally off him, then God help him when it really does count next season...
And when it does all go to shit, every fan that backed him will shirk all responsibility and lay the whole thing at Sullivan’s door, which would of been true if it weren’t for the fact they think he gets everything wrong but not Potter, nope, apparently Potter is a vast improvement of the previous 2 managers, and he will be, right up to the point when the penny drops and suddenly Sullivan got it wrong again, at which point it’ll be too late to do anything about it.
Some of our fans, Potter and Sullivan are an absolute match made in heaven

What a complete load of nonsense 
a much better manager that picks up less points than the manager he’s supposedly head and shoulders above

We’re the only club in the world that’s being held back by its own delusional fucking fans who refuse to demand for better and seem to wank themselves off over watching the most boring pathetic football I’ve ever seen

You’re forgetting he is a much better manager than JLo.
It’s night and day.

He needs a transfer window. We’re good down the right with AWB and Bowen. 

We need a Left back a center half some speed in the middle and a young fast center forward. Someone like Sakho (remember him) would fit in nicely. 

Results aside we’re playing much better then we were at the start of the season.

Biggest problem we have is we shit ourselves when we go in front.

The sad thing about our situation is that after more than a dozen league games the manager does not appear to be getting any more out of this squad than the two previous incumbents. Granted they are not per se his players but surely by now, if Potter had anything about him, we should be noticing perceptible signs of improvement.

All this shit we've sat through so far is not the price we pay for something good to come later. The results may change for the better if we bring in better players (as they would for any manager) but the style of football will be the same as we've seen already: slow, dull and unadventurous.

Does anyone genuinely want to see more of it next season?
That’s spot on 

we’ve got these deluded fans who think we’re suddenly gonna start playing free flowing attacking football next season, I wish people would wise up the fact that this is how he plays 
We was under the impression Moyes wasn’t offered a new contract cos we wanted to see a better brand of football, instead the little weasel cսnt went out and hired dull and duller
Dull and duller....

LOL!! I like that.

The only way Potter is getting us up the table next season is if the premier league start awarding points for not scoring any goals

My point you keep overlooking is we are stuck with the useless turnip as they've fully committed to giving him a lengthy contract as well as hired his right hand man in recruitment, unless there's a break clause that ends his time here. And if that's the case, on we go limping on under Potter in to a new season of despair.

You're welcome to pretend that many be it pundits or fans alike weren't gushing over his press conferences, interviews etc but it doesn't mean it didn't happen. Now we are stuck with him unless Sullivan does something unexpected. 
All I recall is people saying his first press conference was decent and he said the right things and some positive things. Which he did. Nobody had the wool pulled over their eyes. It was all pretty much "Yeah, well done, decent interview. Now go on and do the business." He hasn't. We know that. I am just really not sure why you are seeking to divide the fans into Pro-Potter and Anti-Potter.
