Suggestions from social media accounts over rumoured David Sullivan replies to fan questions last night (all very tenuous!) are that Graham Potter now has two more games. Deja vu.

Enough is fucking enough. The cockpiss cսnt needs to go today or the protests need to go to Sullivan's front door.

Moyes got 2 more games several times because he had “credit in the bank”.

Why is Potter getting 2 more games? How many points does he need to get from those 2 games? What a fucking shambles.
It’s like trying to deport an illegal immigrant, you get him on the plane and think thank fuck he is off and then someone comes along with a last minute reprieve and he is taken off the plane.

This is then repeated a few more times before he eventually goes which is what might happen with Potter, he is currently on the plane and the engine is running but he’ll be saved and hang around till December.

a complete waste of time but a draw will justify extending it to another two. it's clown world front office behaviour. he needs to name himself manager, with his fucking gormless greasy looking son as his assistant. let's stop the pretence that a manager under this midget fucker is anything but pointless

Question for people on here ..

What do we think about Potter getting '2 more games' following these rumours today? 

I absolutely would not put it past Sullivan to drag this out.

If he's more "last 24 months inferiority complex passive Moyes" then that will be miserable and his tenure short.

But either way, I still think we end up without Nuno and with Bilic or O'Neill. They're both just more desperate, more......Sullivan.
 
 
Agree. I would say Nuno is more the former by default. 

His Forest side was built on solid foundations with quick players on the counter. His Wolves side had good technical players like Neves and Jota with raw pace of Traore, even if he is overall a bit shit. 

There is nothing wrong with an organised defensive set up as long as there as a proper punch on the break. In fact I’d argue it’s the best football to watch. Far better than aimless tippy tappy nonsense. Moyes got it right when we had Lingard, but ultimately it became defensive with no idea how to attack.

Yep - for several reasons. He's a cheapskate. So he will try to eek out every pound of "value" from Potter before he has to pay him off for being yet another poor appointment on the chairman's watch, and then wander off to the bargain bucket section of pound shop to find another broken replacement.

Secondly, he's pissed that the fans are protesting about his amazing leadership of the club - yet again (funny, that) - and he's enough of a cսnt to not give in to pressure from fans to change the manager when (in his mind) "they" want.

He's not going to do this how fans, or any decent chairman, would do this. It's another admission of yet another massive failure on his part, of course.

Make no mistake, the real cancer at this club is the poisonous Oompa Loompa we have in charge - and his travelling circus of cronies. The succession of utterly useless managers is merely a mirror reflection of that.

I personally don't care about Potter and his career beyond West Ham, whether he'll get a job or not.

But he shouldn't be West Ham manager right now as he's clearly not good enough.

Potter has now has 6 months to work with the team, identify our weaknesses, bring in players to fix those weaknesses and now that he's done all of this we have come out the other side a worse team.

Agree with all of this - except that there will be a an English club stupid enough to give him another chance, probably in the Championship (which is really his level). Clubs are really fucking stupid in England, and keep re-employing the likes of Bruce etc. So somebody will come knocking for Potter. Probably Birmingham, West Brom, Stoke or Coventry at some point.

"Bilic has a poor record recently. Emotionally he fits but looking at the data"

why didn't you look at the 'potter data' before demanding he gets another window?

The idea that we won’t sack CPP because we have some tough games next is fucking mental.

but 100% believable.

Bilic? Do fuck off.

His ons good season was a fluke.Look at the results that year, he had the perfect strom against "big clubs"and fucked it up against the dross. CL should have been the minimum that campaign.

Inevitable the wheels were coming off because you're not going to take 4/6 points off Man City/United, Arsenal, Liverpool, Chelsea every year.

Payet was the polish on the Bilic turd. He's shit.

Bilic has a poor record recently. Emotionally he fits but looking at the data he’s not a very good manager imo.

Massive Attack" wrote: 20 Sep 2025, 22:07 I spoke about his record since he left in depth recently. 3 pension too ups in Saudi and China for purely monetary reasons like they all do, got WBA promoted to the Prem as Runner-up and a stint doing alright at Watford where they had 3 managers in 1 season but was the best of the lot. His 2nd season in the Shitholes first he got us midtable in 11th. Not bad considering he had to deal with Payet acting the twat and a gaff with exposed scaffolding everywhere. He also left us in the League Cup Quarters against Arsenal after beating Spurs at Wembley Away.

I'm not pretending he's a great choice or a superb manager but I am trying to be pragmatic and a realist about our current demise where we are proper fucked right now. 

He also knows his way around the Shithole so won't be a new manager trying to get to grips with everything all over again, he already knows its a Shithole himself having had to work in it where it was even worse than it currently is.
You're absolutely right, Bilic knows where the toilets are at the LS so we should definitely sign him up.
