Either the comp convo is at a brick wall or we were after Marco Rose. Or… nobody knows anything I think we were after Marco Rose. RBL have acted faster. He loves the Red Bull franchise teams.
An Sionnach Posted 7 September 2022 Posted 7 September 2022 Rodgers might quit football to manage his extensive business enterprises. Otherwise its all downhill from here. He is probably worth tens of millions so he certainly doesn't need the money. His tactical method is old fashioned and past its best. and being from Ulster he is unlikely to change.
Chelmofox Posted 7 September 2022 Posted 7 September 2022 Hows it come to this. I woke of with Brendan being the bookies favourite to get the boot. Since then, another manager has gone and Brendan isn't even favourite to be the next one to get the boot. The worm wriggles out of everything.
Tuna Posted 7 September 2022 Posted 7 September 2022 I think Potter sounds a done deal, must be hugely frustrating for Brighton fans, will be very interesting however to see who they replace him with, they are a club that seems to get most things on point at the moment.

Reckon had we been mid table and he hadn't totally given up that he'd be right in the reckoning for the Chelsea job This. The only thing Im enjoying right now is the thought that Brendas screaming "that should be me" at the tv

I think Brighton may actually go for Brendan. I also think he'd go there happily. Even to be on less money.

If it was less money suspect we’d have to pay him some of it, bearing in mind I’m sure we want rid but currently have to pay a ****ton.

Silva Fox Posted 7 September 2022 Posted 7 September 2022 Just sack him and make Vardy & Evans joint player-managers for now - things couldn't be any worse than they are now! 2

Even to be on less money. The only hope is that he sees Brighton as an opportunity to rebuild his reputation. A manager whose highest finish in England is 9th place is being chosen seemingly well ahead of him despite two 5th place finishes and an FA cup victory. It's quite an indication as to much much his stock has fallen over the past year. If he goes to Brighton and they finishes in the top half, he is more likely to get a top job than continuing to sulk and make excuses here. Edited 7 September 2022 by BenTheFox 1

What in Brighton's management over the past couple of years would make anything think they're dumb enough to want him there? ...Brighton is a perfect set up for Rodgers, they have everything in place, this is what he does!!! He will not have to do much, just walk in and get them to buy into him.
filbertway Posted 7 September 2022 Posted 7 September 2022 If Brighton are as switched as you'd expect then there's no chance they would even be thinking of Rodgers. 2 1
