Regis le Bris - confirmed

[sksk3021]

Over recent years Reims are a team who are expected to be top half or maybe pushing for Europe and Still had a 38% win record, Lorient are expected to be around the relegation zone if not actually relegated and he’s got a 30% win record.

A good chunk of the reason Still got media attention was the exceptional run he went on one season. If you take that out he really hasn’t done much more than expected of Reims.

Agree on Still, I said similar at the time. After the first ten games le Bris is at 22% win ratio.

 

[MustardAndOnions]

My agenda? I don't like Beale he was awful on the field and in interviews, he managed one of the top teams in SPL which should have inflated his win percentage but its still less than 30% and I'd rather have anyone in than him. It's an opinion which I know people struggle to accept others having a differing one than themselves, not everyone has agendas

I’m not saying he’s a better manager than this bloke, I know nothing about him, he’s just clearly got a better CV. There’s no way to dispute this.

 

[Mr Redknapp]

exactly, but some posters on this board are just so hellbent on being negative about everything, hopefully they are happy go lucky and loving in real life to their wives and family and come on here to let all of their misery out

That thought has crossed my mind almost as long as i've been on this fine forum, if they use football as a healthy outlet for their negative emotions and that would be awesome. But who am I to tell people how to live their lives? none of my business really.

 

[woodlebert]

Plus a key factor for me is he seems to play some good football

What style are you envisaging him playing?

 

[Comeback_Kenwyne]

Beyond it being “verbal agreement” but yes we don’t know that for 100% sure. Either way, it was clear that going for Still would put Maric out of the game

Yes. Nobody of any character is going to say yes to a club that goes flakey on you at the drop of a hat. Relationship ruined instantly.

Lorient were relegated with a top half budget.

Lorient have been a mid table team for 20 years

So in conclusion, if you remove the good stuff someone has done then they are just average.

Brilliant.

I was all for Still last winter but went off him before the end of the season.

I suspect Boris would have been against him being appointed last winter as he's a novice who's still not got his qualifications.

 

[questos1983]

Hit the nail on the head. We need to appoint RLB because nobody else wants the job. In truth it’s no different than us giving Graeme Murty the job.

their absolutely no way that this appointment was a target months ago and we’ve waited all this time to get some manager no one has heard of who’s just got his team relegated as our prime candidate after still what essentially peopem
are saying

 

[Derby Mackem]

Just give them a chance man

Give him a chance

Let him prove he’s shit first

All we are saying
Is give Bris a chance

Sacked after a month looks shite on anybody’s CV

 

[hertsmackem]

I like the idea of a virtual complete unknown coming in. The wise SMB has dismissed everyone we know anything about

 

[Toothless]

I hope hes Poyet mk 2 but suspect he is Le Beale

 

[oddbod]

All we are saying

I think you've left a hatch open on yer yellow submarine mate!20 thousand leagues under yer duvet and an open hatch aint conducive to comedy!

 

[WB1974]

Like most on here I’m also underwhelmed but I was let’s say excited when we appointed O’Neill, Coleman, Moyes etc and none of them worked. So time will tell but things can only better

Sacked after a month looks shite on anybody’s CV

Well it was a harsh sacking really we could considerably worse after he left

It’s still a better CV than a 48 year old who has managed for 2 years with one relegation,

That’s not controversial no idea why it triggers so many people

What’s Smith said ?

As far as he understands it Dodds, Proctor and the goalkeeping coach will all be staying at the club and retained in coaching roles.
