Feels like the right decision tbh. Nice for all the real football fans on Twitter to have this chance to grouse and make themselves seem like nobler-than-thou bastions of dignity, honour and justice

When Murray is your best striker you’ll always struggle.
Unlucky for Chris but pretty sure they’ll go down next season anyway.
Do you mean Murray who despite being 35 Is their top scorer with 13 goals for a team that park two buses in away matches ? And singlehandedly beat Cafc 2-1 in the champ at Selhurst when Solly had Zaha in his pocket.
Houghton was unlucky to be sacked at Newcastle, but the Seagulls chairman Bloom has given Chris a fair crack of the whip and they only finished 2 points above Cardiff who were blighted by bad luck.
Brighton had to do something as the back end of the season has been horrendous. The FA Cup run was a fluke and covered up an awful season. Correct decision to sack him but I think the damage has already been done.

How is their season awful? They are Brighton.
What's their objective at the start of the season........i'd guess at premier league survival, beat Palace and have a decent cup run. They achieved survival, beat Palace home and away and got to their first FA cup semi final for nearly 40 years.......and the manager was rewarded by getting sacked. Pathetic.
For me Brighton are a bottom five team, they're either relegated or in a relegation battle
At the moment there is no better option for them and needed to get past the second season syndrome before being able to progress - Now though they've got to deal with getting the new manager right and sadly dont see that happening
I'll wager BHFC will bring in German a la Huddersfield & Norwich

Graham Potter (Swansea) the first man being linked
Unlucky for Hughton as he didn’t deserve that really. They’ve had a poor season in general but they survived and had a cup run. Makes you wonder had they finished 14th and got knocked out in say the 4th round of the FA Cup, would he had been sacked?
They'll have to bring in someone very good now otherwise they’ll be in big trouble.
Hughton will get another job and get another club promotion.

I think owners and fans also want more entertaining football, and Brighton's has been turgid this season. And to be fair they were quite lucky to stay up really ahead of Cardiff
Graham Potter the favourite for the Brighton job. Worked wonders in Sweden & I thought did very well at Swansea last season on a small budget. An interesting appointment if it happens
Brighton (at best) should count their stars they are even in the PL. 17th is probably above their natural position.
Brighton is a club I have never liked for reasons that are obscure, even to me ((:>) .. BUT, clubs get promoted and gain success on merit (also usually backed by large amounts of cash or credit) .. the idea of 'non deserving' ? .. just not so
David Flitcroft sacked 2 days after Mansfield lost in the play offs!
Seriously harsh decision
he had a big budget (by L2 standards) and that is the second season on the trot that his team has failed to get promoted and fallen apart at the very end of the season .. by today's standards he was a gonner at the final whistle on Sunday
Sky commentators were saying that Mansfield have one of the top three budgets in the League
Wonder if they're going to try and get Steve Evans back there
John Radford, the Stags owner is a tough and successful businessman .. I can't see him re-employing a man who walked out on one of his companies, leaving him (Radford) in the mire

Paul Hurst is the new Scunthorpe manager. L1 success to Championship failure, and now back in L2
