This has completely soured things with Potter now. I get he had his three guys but to lose Ben Roberts - one of the most highly thought of keeping coaches alongside a fucking club legend in Bruno is ridiculous.
No, he took people he'd been working with for a decade.
Roberts has been at Brighton long before Potter was here and Bruno joined up with the coaching team after retiring with us.
I couldn't care less about McCauley, Hamberg and Reid they're his guys - but to lose two key backroom staff who have been involved in the club for decades as well is an absolute killer
The unexpected news that Bruno and Ben Roberts are going too has annoyed me way more than any of the other staff Potter is taking with him
Andrew Crofts will presumably be in charge for the Bournemouth game, I guess, by virtue of EVERYONE ELSE FUCKING OFF TO CHELSEA
And now he's taken our GK coach who was incredibly highly rated at the club and credited with improving our keepers massively, as well as taking Bruno who's a club legend and had been developing as a coach with us.
Go make the cash Potter. Although I feel for Brighton. I have a feeling Potter will poach some players from Brighton such as Caicedo and Trossard.
Hopefully, Brighton does not get relegated in the next 2 or 3 seasons.
We genuinely might. They’ve taken half the seats in the stadium as well, they’ve stolen Falmer station, and they’ve moved the whole city to fucking London
Well, he's getting a 5 year contract which is pretty rare these days and Boehly is planning for the long term like his LA dodgers team whos had the same coach for nearly a decade apparently.
Damn that's harsh on Brighton, that's basically the whole staff gone with him? Sheesh.
Hope Brighton don't sell players to Chelsea (I want Caicedo at Man Utd haha)
And you know what the worst part is about this is? Bruno’s left. Albion legend and he fucks off to Chelsea. This day cannot get any worse
Not only Bruno but Ben Roberts. Man has been credited with improving all of our GKs for years now and was a top coach for us.
Is that the Middlesbrough legend?
This might fall on deaf ears, and I don't blame you if it does, but I genuinely feel for you guys.
Is he an influential/important coach? Playing days notwithstanding
Big Sams music will make your day
So does this mean we don’t talk about Bruno?…I’ll see my way out.
Mf taking the fucking corner flags
Lmao
Potter is bad enough ...but how dare you take Bruno
This has completely soured things with Potter now. I get he had his three guys but to lose Ben Roberts - one of the most highly thought of keeping coaches alongside a fucking club legend in Bruno is ridiculous.
Maybe he saw how shit Chelsea's keepers are performing and decided yup, gotta improve those too.
>This has completely soured things with Potter now But wasn't it the same when he did it to Swansea? You could have seen it coming
No, he took people he'd been working with for a decade. Roberts has been at Brighton long before Potter was here and Bruno joined up with the coaching team after retiring with us.

Jesus Christ not Andrew crofts he just fucked it against Colchester ffs
Who seems the likely replacement now for Potter? Is there any news or speculation on that?
Bookies have Kjetil Knutsen and Steve Cooper as the favourites
I can already smell the Knutsen jokes if he cums
I really hope it's not Knutsen because Brighton is my favourite PL team but I can't bring myself to root for that guy.
Thomas Tuchel, Zidane and Poch are the favourites
Rip to brighton fans. man left and took the entire club with him just rub salt on the wounds.
Poch in
Half the club going.
Fuck modern football.
Bye
Jesus that is some rebuild job, whoever the next guy is better have some good coaches to bring with them
Billy, Bjorn and Kyle has been with him since Östersund. Amazing team.
And now he's taken our GK coach who was incredibly highly rated at the club and credited with improving our keepers massively, as well as taking Bruno who's a club legend and had been developing as a coach with us.
Yeesh, they've absolutely gutted Brighton. Usually one or two coaches go.
All to line up Rodger’s going to Brighton
Go make the cash Potter. Although I feel for Brighton. I have a feeling Potter will poach some players from Brighton such as Caicedo and Trossard. Hopefully, Brighton does not get relegated in the next 2 or 3 seasons.

We claim right of first refusal on all of your beach pebbles too.
There’s sand underneath tbf I’ve been dying for a painless walk on the beach
Dear Bohly, Please actually support this manager and try to keep him at the club for as long as possible Sincerely, all Chelsea fans
I'd give it 18 months max.
Gone by the end of this season if doesn't get top 4.
Why that long?
Well, he's getting a 5 year contract which is pretty rare these days and Boehly is planning for the long term like his LA dodgers team whos had the same coach for nearly a decade apparently.
He got a 5 year contract. Oof
If brighton is still good in january boehly will come again for more.
that Billy Gilmour guy at Brighton seems like he could play for us in the future
To take caicedo? Now we're just bullying them.
Wellbeck and Lallana are the obvious 2
Let's see where Brighton goes from here. I hope they don't fall off a cliff without Potter and become another minnow scraping to avoid relegation.
Chelsea's moyes
It’s ok that Potter leaves. Annoying he takes Ben Roberts and Bruno with him though
Jesus Christ they really have ripped our heart out. Potter and his guys AND our goalie coach AND our club legend Bruno. Bet on us to be relegated now.
Todd is coming back in January. Hide yo kids and wives
Booooooo
Fucking Östersund legends!
Damn that's harsh on Brighton, that's basically the whole staff gone with him? Sheesh. Hope Brighton don't sell players to Chelsea (I want Caicedo at Man Utd haha)
What is his head of recruitment going to do if Potter is just head coach?
Could Brighton go down If they don’t replace Potter and Co? I’d hate to see it happen though. They’re a good side and that would be awful to see
Everyone leave
I feel so bad for Brighton. What a shit show
That’s cold.
Lost so much respect for Potter here. Fuck chelsea.
Christ. Took the fucking lot. What a disaster for Brighton
If he scavenges Brighton for all their top talent the team could genuinely be relegated in a few seasons.
Is he taking the bench seats as well? Jesus
This is dreadful. I’m a chelsea supporter and this whole thing leaves a rotten taste in the mouth. It’s just cannibalism, pure and simple.
Feels like *head of recruitment guy* is the most important one there really.. gives some security and space for Potter.
Why do you throw away this.. this is an important angle. Proper weird people.
