Potter's reputation on the slide big time. West Ham look as bad as Everton last week.
Chelsea are top 4 material with the squad they've been alllowed to assemble .
Knowle Village would beat this shit. Potter is gone. Amazing that one/two games in and Forest / West Ham having their own first manager sacked contest.

Forest?

I wonder what odds on Nuno replacing Potter in the next month or so.

Manager and chairman seem to have had a falling out.

Ah I didn’t realise that had come up again after the disagreement last season. Forest would be stupid to get rid.

Ward-Prowse exactly the type of player Gerrard or O'Neil would have signed.

Actually, didn't our Dean try to sign him when we got back up into the Prem?

West Ham seemed half decent going forward at times but they looked bloody awful at the back.

Potter has won 5 games since taking over in Jan and most of those were against garbage sides. His decline since leaving Brighton is impressive.

I think there's a strong argument he's not achieved better than par in any job he's done since leaving Östersund.

All of those "well, he's the obvious candidate" takes for pretty much any job going over the last few years were mental in my opinion.
