The irony of replacing Potter with the only manager he's beaten this season is akin to buying Paul Hilton from Bury.

I don't see her lasting for very luch longer and I think that will be also her and her dickhead husbands wish as well. I don't think you can get any bigger face saving sunglasses to cover her obvious embarrassment she feels about it all from Potter to the shambolic Stadium she's lumbered us with. Tuesday morning wouldn't surprise me after a heavy defeat.

You know who I feel immediately sorry for? All those travelling Hammers up to Evertons new Stadium who will have to be put through torture at a real cost to them. That's how irresponsible and shows how much BS Regime don't care about the fans. 💩

Hopefully they give the Board a fantastic warm welcome in the Away End at least. Typical West Ham gallows humour also helps at rock bottom times likes these.

From the Beeb:

West Ham are set to appoint former Nottingham Forest boss Nuno Espirito Santo after sacking head coach Graham Potter.
Portuguese Nuno is expected to be in place before Monday's match against Everton, saying he has had positive talks with the West Ham board.

He will bloody go on forever. Feels like it anyway. 
 

Geez, I did say the Club is probably working on creating a Sullivan A.I. version with all the money he's made out of the Club. They'll install the final element with a piece of his tiny manky brain being inserted in to a chip using a McDonalds straw he used for his last ever Happy Meal, so to give it that authentic braindead Sullivan feel just as soon as he finally pops his clogs...
Oh god that would be awful. Or a head in a jar like Futurama. For EVER.....

Actually I wonder if this social media Potter face thing was the just final straw for both him and the club. That might explain the weird timing. 

If so can somebody please start doing the same thing with Sullivan and Brady’s faces?

I can think of a fair few duos who would work quite well for starters

No point as Sullivan is now manager, coach, CEO, Head of Footbsll Operations and Director of Football.  He’s finally got what he wanted as you will see with thr thumping we get at Everton 🥳
 
Nah he's been binned too. Most of the coaches have been fucked off as well. Nuno has quite a large entourage so they needed to make room. 
Macaulay isn't a coach.  Where have you read he's gone?

Edit - Just seen the rumours that he's meant to go also.

Don't think he needs to take Ward - Prowse, if Nuno comes in. He barely played Ward Prowse, when he was at Forest.

Dunno.

It’s West Ham: very little happens logically.
I presume they were waiting for Nuno to say yes, which he has done i'm sure.
 
 
That’ll be my guess, too. But I don’t know.

The timing is fucking mental. Why would you do it NOW rather than during the week past or on Tuesday morning?

chaos for Monday now. Presume Kevin Keen steps in unless they have their man ready but this is crazy timing. 

Either (if the new man isn’t ready and I guess not given no announcement) Sullivan can’t face Moyes being the one to embarrass him by ending his manager - those optics are not good - or Potters just said ‘fuck you I’m not coaching that game given what you’re doing so just fire me now’

My thoughts on that is surely you say to the new manager OK it's agreed but at this very late stage we shall announce it after Monday's game has been completed because of the concern of the players having had any training from a new coach.

There is no coach at all on the touchline and it's going to be a total winging it job. Well, unless they take control of the game themselves with all their coaches but then everyone is totally unprepared and does no one any favours. What a fucking clusterfuck of a situation to create for yourself. 😆

Very strange that they waited until today. It should have been done on Monday, but maybe as suggested they wanted to make sure a replacement was lined up. If it is Nuno, then I think overall that is a positive appointment. One thing is for sure, we couldn’t carry on with Potter in charge.
