Yeah.
Get photos of the pothole (I took a ruler and used it and my feet for scale and depth). Then get onto google and see if you can find evidence that it's been there a while - you can use a little date slider thing to find older pictures of the same location.
If you can find evidence it's been there for more than say 3-6 months you might be in with a chance. It depends on the road though - different roads have different requirements for inspection frequency.
Start taking details or any witnesses and start totting up any damage costs too.

Anyone claimed off the council for shitty road road surfaces causing an off? Just had a pothole send me over the handlebars. Elbow and knee pretty messed up, bike possibly damaged too.
