Credit to the club trying to keep hold of him. Could it possibly be him trying to get assurances from the board on how this summer will play out before turning Brighton down?

Clinging on to anything at the moment. Another manager change would be a disaster at this stage imo.

If he does go, then the next manager we have that comes over kissing the badge/fist pumping/shouting you Jack b@stards (We've now had a few)....it's gonna take a big effort not to jump on the turf telling him go fck himself.

They may want to give him time. But when push comes to shove, having made their sums about the catastrophic impact of a return to the Championship, they'll soon think differently, and lofty goals of good attacking football will be cast aside and pragmatism will take over. Their fingers will become itchy and they'll take any old fool playing any kind of hoofball if they think it'll give them a chance to avoid te financial abyss of relegation.

I you don't go down next season, (probably Sotons turn next) then it will be the season after. No one ever re-boots once caught in the drain water.
Come again.

This statement from Bloom says it all about how much time Potter will get: "Our run of three wins from 23 Premier League matches put our status at significant risk. It is with that in mind, and the performances during that period, that I now feel it's the right time for a change."

If Bloom was serious about the long term he wouldn't put so much emphasis on the "status at significant risk" bit. He let the cat out of the bag there - and Potter should realise that any poor run of form will see him out of the door. The Premier League does strange things to club owners and chairmen, as we know only too well - all rationality goes out of the window and it's all about staying in the league at whatever cost to footballing principles or the long-term viability of the club (Portsmouth and Bolton fans can no doubt vouch for that). I see nothing to suggest Bloom is any less short term in his approach than the rest.

Update: "Albion remain confident of bringing in Potter and his coaching staff, despite having an initial approach knocked back. The process of securing clearance to open negotiations with Potter has been left in a holding pattern by the fact Swansea’s joint owners are on opposite coasts of the USA, one in Los Angeles."

Potter’s odds drifting slightly to 4/6, Phillip Neville now at 3/1 for the job.

I thought we'd already told them no, so why do there need to be lines of contact? Especially with those two idiots across the ocean.

Potter talks continue
Right then.

We’ve now got an update on Graham Potter’s future...

Swansea City remain in talks with the Englishman amid the ongoing interest from Brighton.

The Seagulls made Potter their No. 1 target after making the bold call to sack Chris Hughton on Monday morning.

They have already had an approach to speak with Potter turned down by Swansea, although Brighton are expected to up their efforts to take the 43-year-old to the Amex Stadium. It is believed there has been no official follow-up approach from the Seagulls.

Swansea held lengthy talks with Potter on Wednesday, and it’s understood that discussions between the club and their manager remain ongoing.

It is understood that Potter - who during the course of the 2018/19 campaign has repeatedly stated that he views the job in SA1 as a long-term project - is seeking assurances over what the future holds at the club.

He has endured two difficult transfer windows at the Liberty Stadium to date, with no fewer than 19 players departing while only six have been recruited.

If Potter wants assurances to stay he is gone.
The compensation will be the stumbling block.

No way Potter will back the Yanks into a corner.

If he goes, we know exactly what the plans are.

He’s not backing them into a corner, he’s most likely just asking if there’s another big sell off will he have the the backing to bring a few in. As the article says, 19 out, 6 in, it’s not sustainable.

I genuinely think Potter is a man of his word and loyal, I certainly believe we are going to find out what the yanks are planning sooner rather than later.

Potter and (I think) McCauley watching the playoff semi in Portsmouth.

Scouting players or local entertainment?

That’s the negative way to look at it. The positive way is to think that Potter likes it here, isn’t convinced about Brighton and the owners are going to give him a budget to have a crack at promotion. That’s overly optimistic perhaps but not beyond the realms of possibility.

Money to spend with eat least a £30 million black hole and still paying hefty wages to players out on loan

As you say

Overly optimistic way at looking at it

Just seen a post on twitter saying that all the players out of contract has dropped the wage bill by about £12M, there’s a start.

Promising. No one in this game would interest a Premier League club surely.

Pretty sure Matt Clarke has piqued interest. Could be cheaper CB option to bring in than Carter-Vickers. Still young at 22 as well.

WalesOnline understands that the pair's attendance was due to a pre-planned scouting mission, and has nothing to do with any interest in his services from elsewhere.


It's not clear if Potter was there to watch any particular players, although it could well have been Pompey defender Matt Clarke, who's already reportedly attracting interest from Championship duo Leeds United and
