Brighton’s chairman, Tony Bloom, was alarmed at the loss of form that plunged Brighton into the Premier League relegation dogfight and the manager, Chris Hughton, has paid the price

Chris Hughton has rarely been tempted to overplay his hand and, speaking to a small huddle of journalists at the end of December, he was at pains to make sure nobody else got ahead of themselves. Brighton had deservedly beaten Everton 1-0 and were 11 points clear of the relegation zone, a victory away from the top half, but their manager felt cautious. “We’re at a level where we can’t afford to look upwards,” he said.

Brighton should have been top four playing Barcelona type football at the very least. Shame on Chris Hughton for getting them to the EPL and keeping them there

He paid the price of a short sighted owners. Maybe the supporters will present a view that supports them. Who knows, but they know better than most if it was the right decision.

This is a disgrace

Perhaps. But surely Hughton is well placed to buy a new striker? Brighton are a decent side and this could easily backfire on them in a major way. Sure they still rely on Murray - but who bought Dunk and Duffy? Two of the best.

But he won't be out of a job for long. Harsh. You'd think keeping Brighton up would be enough. It's hard to argue that they've a better squad than any of the clubs that finished above them. As Liverpool fan, I am happy, he was sacked . He never helped in whatsoever way.
