I think now we are a Premiership club and we have had some success in staying up, we need to look at the way we keep the club on an upward trajectory. We need to overhaul all aspects of recruitment, how we get players through from the youth set up and more importantly develop the scouting network. We over pay constantly for players as we are always struggling when we do. We need to start buying players when we identify a squad need and buy for the future. Additionally there should be a succession plan in place constantly. Look at Watford - they have done this so no matter who the manager is, the squad gets better and they have a way to play. We don't and what we are doing is unsustainable.

Bexley Dave Can you hear the Brighton sing? I can't hear a ******* thing! "The most arrogant, obnoxious bunch of deluded little sun tanned, loafer wearing mummy's boys I've ever had the misfortune of having to listen to" (Burnley forum) |

With respect, my understanding is that the debate has not centred around a call for the imminent departure of Hodgson and considering the favoured replacements but for discussing the potential candidates when Hodgson eventually departs,given that his contract runs to the end of the following season. That said, I am far from cerebrally blessed so I might be off track on this matter.

I disengage, I turn the page. |

What has Stevie G, Phil and Gary Neville achieved in management.

At the beginning of this thread I asserted that when the time comes, then there will be a clearer picture as to the potential possibilities to replace him and that it was folly and indeed premature to engage in such discussion at this juncture. We have no crystal ball to predict the landscape and our situation at the time Hodgson departs. Edited by Willo (04 Oct 2018 3.18pm)

Edited by Willo (04 Oct 2018 3.18pm) To be fair, as Willo says, nobody is throwing Hodgson under the bus. I thought his interview after the Bournemouth match was the classiest football related TV that I had seen this season. However it is realistic that we will have to come up with another name at some point so there is no harm debating it now. It is a lot more constructive than half the transfer news posts we have to wade through anyway.
