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.

Just out of interest, Nutsin, why can't we judge him now?  He's been here for pretty much half a season.

That's easily enough time to form an opinion on his tactics and the way he manages the team.

And he's been crap at it.

Are you really that stupid. You all wanted Amorim and he hasn’t faired much better either and he has much better resources than Potter. So what has Amorim turned in to a shit manager in 5 months too?

Answer is no, of course he hasn’t. You were all banging on at just how shit our squad was when J Lo left. Is it no longer shit then? Is Potter doing a bad job with a good squad now? 

Give it a rest you sound ridiculous!
Well firstly, when did you hear me banging on about Amorim? You seem to of assumed that so straight away you’ve made yourself out to be a complete cսnt who has no rational point 

and secondly what the fuck are you talking about? Who’s saying we’ve got an amazing squad, Lopetegui picked 2 players, the rest were already here or signed by Steidten, the 2 players he picked have been absolute shit and he’s failed to do a decent job with all the other players that weren’t his, I couldn’t give a shit if he signed them or not, what he was serving up wasn’t good enough, no one expected us to be in the top 8 realistically but not seeing some of the worst football we’ve ever seen, any coach with any clue could of walked in and done better than Lopetegui but Potters rocked up and somehow found a way to make us even more boring and pick up less points
by comparison he’s rowed with players just like Lopetegui did, he’s dropped a quality player for speaking out and showing some passion just like Roeder did and he’s picking up almost the same points per game as Avram fucking Grant 
I don’t need a crystal ball to tell this bloke is a steaming pile of wank, the same way I don’t need a crystal ball to know you don’t know anything about football 
 
Where were you banging on about Amorim? about 6 posts ago, where you were telling us all that he had championships under his belt.

my initial post about Amorim before that was a remark made at the many on here that wanted him in charge it wasn’t specifically aimed at you. 

We’re on our 3rd manager now and look where it’s gotten us. Club needs to settle and have some consistency it’s fucking obvious. Constant turmoil isn’t good for the players or the fans. Just look at how hysterical you are for example imagine how hysterical you’re gonna be with a 4th manager ffs. 
 
 
I’ve not mentioned Amorim on here at all

this is the point you don’t get, you say the club needs to settle, that’s fine, but how about we settle with a manager with a proven track record in the premier league, not some out of work clown who’s entire career is based on playing non attacking football.

I watch football for entertainment purposes, There is no entertainment under Potter, he encourages players to be dull and keep hold of the ball at all costs.
You could go and watch Sunday league and see a better standard of entertainment that what he’s serving up.

The pressure should be being put on Sullivan to go and pay for a manager who’s currently working in the Premier League like any real team with ambition would do, and a team with the ambition he promised us we’d have for selling our home. Just giving up and excepting Potter is giving up in general as far as I’m concerned.

I’m comparing him because many on here wanted him when J Lo lost the plot and he came in midway through the season too Just like Potter. In fact Amorim has been in charge longer than Potter has.

Moyes Brought us European trophies look where we are now, you’re the div that keeps calling for managers to be fired every 5 mins. 

Amorim was already at Manchester United when Lopetegui got sacked. There wasn’t one poster on here who wanted him, largely because he’d just started a new job.
Bullshit, plenty on here wanted him before he took the Man U job. Lying again!
Plenty wanted him before we got Lopetegui.

You said "many on here wanted him when J Lo lost the plot" which simply isn't true because he'd taken the MU job by then.

So no it's not bullshit.

The Amorim comparison is worth making because despite results for both managers being poor, a lot of Man Utd's fans like his attacking style of play and know that given time and the right signings they will get the results to go with the football. I don't think anyone who actually watches us play can say the same thing about Potter.

If anyone does genuinely believe that then tell me exactly what it is about Potter's style of play that you enjoy?

Potter definitely didn't become a bad manager in 5 months, who actually thought he was a good one?

Didn't he have a 27% win rate with Brighton's talent conveyer belt and Chelsea"s billions. 

His under 20% and not scoring goals seems on par with the jobs he did at those two, he's simply a bit shit and always has been.

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.
To be fair you’ve got a point 

I mean it don’t take a genius to call Potter shit and then have him back it up every week 

any idiot can see that

Just some that think sacking another manager & allowing the little cսnt Sullivan to spin the wheel again isn’t likely to improve anything

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
