Brighton sack hughton?

....it’s part and parcel of the occupation these days, it’s ruthless but it’s also why Premiership managers are paid £m’s. It’s a merrygoround, they tend to move from job to job, getting sacked is an occupational hazard, I don’t feel sorry for Hughton.

I’m 50/50 with this.

Yes that’s really all he could possibly do. But why should they settle for that? They might just want to do a bit better. And Hughton can’t do that.

It’s a tricky one. Like Ipswich taking the risk last season, it can backfire terribly.
 
Absolutely the right decision. Playing negative 4-5-1 lump it up to striker football only works for so long. They do it every away game and all the home games against decent sides. Maybe it doesn't work out and they go down but they weren't a million miles away this year and they'll be in it again with Houghton. Nothing wrong with aiming a bit higher.

They played lousy footie. And maybe all those guys bought (not sure how much input the manager had) might get decent w/ another manager. They are still young. He's not a bad manager tho and will get hired elsewhere.
 

I think it was the right time; he’s a good manager but he’s got a low ceiling. Brighton have a cracking academy, decent overall setup & some decent players now. They need a more expansive manager to take them on.

He’s done a brilliant job but the right time to move on.
