When it was announced that Brighton and Hove Albion's manager Graham Potter was moving to Chelsea, it reminded me that in the seasons from 1963 to 1966 I used to watch both these clubs; Brighton when I was at college there, and Chelsea when I didn't. It is hard to believe that at that time Brighton were in the fourth tier of the football league, playing at the old Goldstone Ground. I think that one year they won promotion to the third division. Potter has taken them to their highest ever position of ninth in the Premier League for the season 2021/2022, and at the start of this season to the dizzy heights of fourth after six games, higher than Chelsea! No wonder The Blues took him as their new manager.
