Regis le Bris - confirmed


Club have played a blinder. Took so long to make an appointment that fans became so desperate. we appoint an absolute nobody and fans grasp on to the mystery of the unknown and think “better than Beale I suppose”
I said similar a few pages back. If this fella had been appointed within 10 days of Beale going there’d have been uproar, but 100+ days later and people are spinning a gloss on it. Talk about fickle.
 
People have twisted how long an appointment has took on here. They get close to naming someone and you twist about that. Give the lad a chance man.
Fans will give him a chance, but let’s look at his stats and they don’t make very good reading. I’m not wetting my knickers here and sincerely hope he does well, but this is a cheap appointment who was most of his career worked with the B team or youth team. Fits the model apparently.

Like they did Beale?
 
Heckingbottom is a rank average Championship manager, same as Rosenior. I'd much rather us take a risk with a foreign manager who might have a higher ceiling if they adapt. Le Bris might not be that man but we can't keep appointing these Championship jobbers.
Only one I’d have been on more board with would have been Cifuentes, and even he isn’t a guarantee of anything. The rest I had the same doubts about as i have with this bloke.

No gloss from me. I don’t know if he is the right man or not but I think we have to give him a chance.
Is it worth writing him off before his first game?

"They bought NDong for £20m, got rid of Aouchiche and now they are giving us money to get rid of Le Bris. Sunderland we love you"

(Thank you especially to you) - meaning Sunderland. Goes onto clarify that he just wants a coach who respects the club.

"There is news that makes you smile"

It's all we've really got to go off.

Would there have been uproar if he'd been brought back in Feb? I'm not so sure.
 
I wonder if its possible to at least try and be optimistic and at least wait until hes managed few games first and see what happens. Its better than Dodds, Beale or no manager
