‘You’re a liar’, ‘It’s like cheating on your wife with this young model’ – Brighton fans reacted to latest Potter’s farewell message
Graham Potter implored Brighton supporters to be understanding as he gave them an explanation of why he chose Chelsea over the Seagulls.
Although the Englishmen’s departure letter seems like an apology, not all Brighton fans are willing to accept it.
Glasdir: “If it’s not a load of bullshit intended to placate then he’s an incredibly naive fool. He was impatient and jumped the gun, taking the first job available rather than a good one and leaving us in real trouble which is scummy at best. The Man City job is available in the summer and I’m sure he would have been a candidate had he waited.”
Dancinglemming: “I always really believed that he was a man of integrity who valued the fans and listened to supporters’ views. Now I see that he’s selfishly chasing the money…
“I for one, am not yet prepared to forgive and forget. It’s very likely that we will spiral down the league now he’s taken such crucial staff with him.”
blackkaviar_doc: “It’s all empty words to me tbh. 6 games in and it all goes well and this…”
Eagle73: “Everything is for appearances nowadays, can’t really believe a word.”
The Wizard: “It’s like cheating on your wife you’ve been with for 5 years with a sexier, younger model who is willing to do more in the bedroom than writing a heartfelt letter talking about all the good times you had, note to Graham Potter… you have tarnished those memories by taking the whole club and turning it upside down at first notice, I don’t blame him by the way with the money on offer but I still don’t and will not forgive it anytime soon.”
Mightygulls: “Actions speak louder than words.”
cjd: “Dear Graham, you are a liar. FULL STOP.”
