Potter Sacked!

[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.

[Lee Trundle]

I still can't fathom how after we scored the second he abandoned the Irving sub.   Literally from the kick off it was one way traffic which is expected as Wolves were trying to get back in the game.  What does Potter do to change the dynamic of the game, fuck all.  

Had me scratching my head also.

It was like he figured out we had no legs in midfield, then completely forget about it all after we scored.

Poor management.

[Massive Attack]

It's called the gutless approach. Thinking that with over half an hour to go, he can just ride the scoreline out after going unexpectedly in front. He couldn't believe his luck. "Sit back lads, soak it up now and I'll protect you by chucking on another Defender with fresher legs". Invites wave after wave of attack before the inevitable predictable outcome. Moyes MK II.

Even poor old Irving wasn't exactly all that positive to try to kill the game off or go for the jugular to keep the pressure off our defence as it should have been at least 1 Striker which is exactly what Periera did leaning on his experience to sense how it was panning out.

Pathetic Potter should be sacked today but I suspect he will limp on and be given the Forest game.

Fail to win that and he should be toast. The transfer window will effectively be over after that and there will be time for a new appointment to work with whatever train wreck of a squad we have by that point before a massive London derby against that mob from North London.

Nick on C&B said this morning that JWP's fastest run with the ball last night was on the right wing - but back towards his own goal....

[Sir Alf]

Steve "Boaty" Cooper nailed on.   Not had that kind of leader at the club since Dowie was manager. "The bells, the bells!!!"  

[Council Scum]

Council Scum,

Care to verify your contact at the club?

Why the fuck would I do that you sausage? 

[Massive Attack]

Heard that Potter is very close to the sack, but we won't line anyone decent up to replace him, so it won't make any difference. 

I can picture other Staff trying to hunt him down at the Training Ground to tell him Sullivan wants a word with him but he keeps hiding in clever spots he can't be found. Blatant 1980s Playground hide and seek Runner-up, this cսnt.

Cock Piss is on the run..

[goose]

His mate from Kappa told him.

from?

Someone at the club 

Was the "but we won't line anyone decent up" also from someone at the Club, or your own addition? SWT

[Lee Trundle]

Sullivan might as well just make himself the manager.

And have Salthouse as his scout.

The new goalkeeping coach must be laughing his head off.

A couple of weeks worth of work and he's likely to be handsomely paid off when Potter is sacked.

Thinnk the Dyce ship has sailed...he's more a Brady favourite than Sullivan, and we've seen how her last reccommendation went.

Cooper on the other hand...his chances of Prem jobs are likely to be slim.  Sullivan is a known fan.  And he (rightly) could claim a hard deal based on his Leicester sacking (with Van Nistelhorse clearly showing that there were worse out there).

Could see Cooper being just the kind of day deemed capable of keeping us up, and open to a deal through to the end of the season.

Nailed on.

[Massive Attack]

Just couldn't give a fuck if it's the same bland uninspiring identiborekit. Dyches, Cooper, Potter they're all 1 and the same passion vacuums that are the typical just enough appointees these divs make to be a member still of the Premier League gravytrain.

Where's the Managers with character, gravitas, passion for a Club like ours that WANTS to play entertaining, exciting Football that the Fansbase could really get behind...

This Board will never get it and understand the West Ham Way with such appointments. Even when they had Bilic, they couldn't wait to long him off as he was too much of a risk to a relegation battle now and again.

[honky cat]

It will be Sean Dyche nailed on. 

 

 

I honestly can't see him taking the job, or Cooper 

[Fat, Bald n 50]

If we time it right, sack him when Nuno leaves Forest then we'll have a substantially better replacement.  Stands a better chance of keeping us up than Potter does.

It will be Sean Dyche nailed on. Something that I would normally like to avoid under calmer circumstances but we have seen this pan out time and again. I think he would get this club better than some of the other candidates tbh. Football aesthetic wise we'd have to look the other way through which is easy for all of us that have boycotted in recent years!

Cooper is a very good coach especially with young players but again it's keepball with no end product without a huge budget to buy the kind of players who can bury one chance when it arrives.

[ragingbull]

It's always right to give managers time,but he has been here 8 months and I've not seen any green shoots.

Interesting quote from Will Still at Southampton who obviously took over from the Potter-esque Russel Martin:

"We were getting into old habits of playing sideways and backwards and attracting pressure, but we started playing forward and getting in behind.

“We don’t want to play short and attract pressure and play it back into pressure. I think that’s everything we want to avoid.

“Once we started stretching it, our passing was a bit bigger, and we started switching and stretching their block, then you just make it easier for yourself.

[stubbo-admin]

Here’s a serious question: when was the last time that Ward-Prowse played a defence-splitting pass? Of any kind?

His role in the side seems to have become to drop deep, pick up the ball from his CBs, look sideways, pass sideways or back (where, under Potter, the spare man is always placed) and repeat until nauseous.

Maybe he would improve under a very different manager. But he has become the epitome of Potter’s crab-ball.



 

 

 

He's actually worse as a number 8 where he's playing now, than he was as a 6 last season...at least there he received the ball on the half-turn and distributed the ball left or right.  Offered no real shield, but did at least help to conduct buildup from deep.

But now he just looks like an aged dachsund, trying to kep up with a bunch of labrador juveniles at the park.  Plenty of willing, and some unique former abilities, but fundamentally just no longer up to task amongst bigger, stronger, faster specimens. (no idea where that analogy came from).

But he's also a symptom of our squad state, and also Potter's love of 'safe' yes men.

No need to go into it all again...we all by now and recognise the squad issues, ownership issues, management issues.  Just a waiting game until some or all of that changes.

[Mad Dog]

Ward prowse started off brilliant for us and fell off a cliff.  He may well be the slower human being alive.  I remember last season when a goalkeeper outpaced him to a loose ball

And now he looks like potter's favourite player

But fuck me how bad is kilman?  No shixk that he came on and the defence instantly looked worse.  2nd goal he lost thr ball in thr middle and 10 seconds later there was a high ball 20 yards out he just stood there and let 2 wolves players decide between themselves who was going to control it.
He's making konstantinos "clanger" mavropanos look like our best defender.  Perhaps his some of his balls up were due to him having  no faith in kilman .  Having pakyed as a centre back for years i know for a faxt that When youre playing alongside a shit 2nd centre half your decision making changes completely.
