Alexander Litvinenko I wonder just how much the shenanigans with us in March are part of this.

Poyet spoke to us about the vacancy here (although maybe not directly) and then went back to Brighton to get some promises to stay. Maybe those promises were dependant on promotion, maybe the owners were just pissed off with being held to ransom like that.


Their fans were sick of him selling his soul to any Premier League club that would listen, every opportunity he had. I'm sure the board were too.

As long as he's still manager when we play him, I think that would be an excellent idea for him to help out! :lol:

Blimey, I thought Reading fans would have 'gotten over' McGhee's departure from Reading.

You'd think Chelsea fans would get over Rafa's, off the cuff, comments, when he was Liverpool manager - wouldn't you......

Oscar Garcia looks set to join Brighton; former Barcelona player who has success with Barca youth and Tel Aviv as a manager in recent past. Guilleme Ballague seems to think they've done well to get him.

After realising how much BHA fans seem to hate us, I'd quite like him to fail miserably but all the noise surrounding this bloke seems to be good, the Brighton fans are certainly over the moon with the appointment.

Brighton & Hove Albion have named former Barcelona midfielder Oscar Garcia as their new head coach in the wake of Gus Poyet's dismissal.

Head coach? - so does that mean he won't be in charge of buying the players etc?!

If it anything like Ince's reasons as to why he couldn't get a job for so long, it was probably rejected because he's black.

Last season Blackburn could've taken the space vacated by the (lack of) managerial changes at Old Trafford - this season, however ?
