I would throw Sean dyche or Chris hughton in to the ring for managers job both these guys punch above their weight in EPL. It would give them an opportunity to win trophies and possibly improve their career for future. But it would require backing from board to entice them out of EPL it's just names on previous thread are either non starters or uninspiring to me.

{Ed001's Note - Hughton just got sacked by Brighton.}

That's even more up our boards street🤣 I'd still take him as keeping Brighton in that league isn't a failure on my thinking.

Don't think we'd get Dyche jim. He's being eyed up as a future England manager.
Ed 001 is Houghton highly rated?

{Ed001's Note - highly respected and liked, I suppose it depends on what or who you talk to as rated. I think he was unlucky to get the sack, but it is difficult to know if he is the right man or not. He deserves a chance though.}

Just the culture down there now ed. What does a team like Brighton really think they can do?

{Ed001's Note - I don't get it, they think too much of themselves and their expectations arose beyond realism.}

Ive just been sent a rumour that eddie howe has been lined up for after the final, does anyone see any truth in it? He'd be a step up from lennon or clarke I think.

Houghton did a fantastic job at Newcastle and was treated very harshly imo. A man that always comes across well. Don't think he'll be out of work long. Good luck to him.

Not just them though either ed. Every team that hits the EPL is the same.
They get delusions of grandeur and think they are big clubs just because they are in that league.

{Ed001's Note - they are in terms of money.}

Stephbhoy2 you could add him into the mix for me, he's taken Bournemouth as far as can be expected and if bigger EPL clubs don't come in soon he'll either move to mid team continental like Moyes tried or get relegated eventually which sets his stock lower.

That makes them rich not big ed.

{Ed001's Note - and the difference is?}

hughton got sacked due to 3 wins in 23 games. regardless of league etc that's unnacceptable at any level

brighton will never be more than a bottom half side but 3 in 23 is awful.

3 in 23 is poor but these clubs can struggle at any time. He also took them to semi final of fa cup so for Brighton does that not overall become a good season? What name would you realistically take always cheated?

Well I wouldn’t say that a Brighton or Huddersfield are bigger clubs than the likes of Leeds, villa or Sunderland ed.

{Ed001's Note - they can attract better players though. Not that I really see that it matters.}

Jim1972 im a bluenose and on the way you guys have played since lennon come in id be thrilled if he got the job permanently as you have looked laboured, abject, devoid of ideas etc

dont think he will get the job tho but i can't see it going to a "big name" either.
