As we approach the first anniversary of Graham Potter’s last stand, I’ve found myself thinking back to a conversation we once shared in his office at Swansea City. That was in March 2019, so a good while before his journey of 1,000 miles was interrupted by a faceplant into the great wall of Chelsea.
The immediate possibilities that afternoon centred on Swansea’s FA Cup quarter-final against Manchester City, which was his first major game in British football, but his future and past were where the curiosity really lived.
