Regis le Bris - confirmed

[Frank Bullitt]

Negative people? You mean people eith different opinions to you?

Im a season ticket holder and want every new coach to succeed here but at same time I can see why people might be concerned at our approach given how last season went. We would have been in league 1 with a full season of beale / dodds' inexperienced approach.

I'll rest my judgement on new guy until i see the team after a few games and see his demanour on the touch line. We need a leader. Our young team needs a proper leader. Here's hoping

I mean the people who have a negative view of this appointment before they have seen the bloke in action. The people who think it's some kind of cheap appointment because of who is agent is, because he hasn't won a trophy. It's some peoples default view, and always will be. So I will give my opinion of them, if that's ok.

 

[Teed]

Still no idea why people get this idea from. What on earth is this based on?

They don't like the way he looks, same with Beale really.

 

[bongomark1]

Are we going to sign a striker (decent) now??

 

[riffraff]

It’s about the obsession with progression.

We’ve gone from 6th to 6 points off relegation.

We were told there was a 5 year project to get us in to Premier League. Promotion must be achieved this season.

“Challenging for the Premier League” iirc. Meaning to be serious promotion candidates by then, not slugging it out with City, Arsenal,Liverpool and the mags

Hahahahahahaha did anyone see what I did there? Eh?

I’d never heard of Jack Ross tbf

Me neither. Of the others linked;
Maric - hadn’t heard of him but apparently better than the current hadn’t heard of
Jansen - hadn’t heard of but apparently better than the current hadn’t heard of and broke some hearts of those who hadn’t heard of him either but liked his pre failure approach
Still - hadn’t heard of before Mowbray went but made some sassy bilingual vids before his relegation form then broke the hearts of the YouTube massive

This.

Not sure I knew much about Parky either.

He's in good company.

You trawled through my past posts to find something I'd said about us not wanting to pay compensation when we had never paid any compensation for a Head Coach under this regime.

You’d asked

“Please provide links to any bullshit I've posted.”

Took 2 minutes (hardly a trawl). Just click on search- keyword “compensation” username “Reporter”- 2 posts come up- one of them is bulls@&t

The language you used in your infantile response was worthy of reporting and shouldn’t be used on a public forum.

 

[chriswallace85]

Was Mick Buxton very well known? Unremarkable career before us, but his appointment was a little before my time.

 

[riffraff]

So what was fantasist about the bit of the post you quoted then?

My point has been that the fact there's this link with the bloke we've ended up with shows how badly the club have messed this recruitment process up. If you want to think that's me being negative or a fantasist then that's up to you. I can't believe any fan thinks that the club have handled this recruitment process well though.

If Pep or Klopp were with that agency and we were linked would you be banging on about a conspiracy? If yes then fair play to you. If not then you’re not actually whinging about the link but about the new HC himself.

 

[G Force]

How is it a conspiracy to point out that all 3 of our Ligue One signings (Ba, Aouiche, Pembele) are with this agency. They only rep around 40 players so it’s not from a big player pool.

We can’t get Still over the line and end up with a manager from this agency. Again they only rep a few which includes Farioli. Not from a big manager pool.

I fully understand how relationships with agents work, however there certainly does seem to be a reliance on this particular one within France

For the record before I get jumped on by the usual, I’m actually positive about the new manager. Other than Parkinson and Beale I’ve had a childish optimism about all of them. Even found something in Grayson. I’m usually wrong

It’s not “conspiracy” to point out the obvious link with this agency though. As long as it also benefits the club then brilliant, utilise it. It’s only an issue of the relationship forces it all to be too narrow in recruitment. I’ll give KLD the benefit here but it’s clearly his call not Speakman’s. Which might be for the best after Beale

If Pep or Klopp were with that agency and we were linked would you be banging on about a conspiracy? If yes then fair play to you. If not then you’re not actually whinging about the link but about the new HC himself.

It’s not Pep or Klopp though is it: that’s sort of the point mate Hope you and the much better half are keeping well

 

[BarnesPark]

We've rarely paid compo to anyone ever.

Bruce and Ross are the only ones I can think of.

Yep, it’s not common.

However saying “It's clear as day that they won't pay compensation for head coaches so why even fill fans' heads with nonsense” is a great example of the hyperbole used on this forum which doesn’t no credit.

It was a post that at the time was based on exactly what had happened. There was no bullshit there at all.

And great to know that despite me posting once in a blue moon you remember enough that you can get something that you perceive to be bullshit with your first search.

I know mate. I don't think I've ever said anything different.

What "conspiracy" am I banging on about?

 

[BarnesPark]

Sorry.

You said "It's clear as day that they won't pay compensation for head coaches so why even fill fans' heads with nonsense"

They then went on to pay compensation for a head coach.

You then say "There is no bulls@&t there at all"

I'll leave it to others to decide.

 

[dcl0sc]

How does it show anything of the sort? How do you know he wasn't high up on their original list? You don't. You're just making things up to suit an agenda.

The very fact we've paid compo for him shows the club clearly wanted him.

Had we paid any compensation for any of the Head Coaches they'd appointed at that time?

How much compensation have we paid? Can I have it in exact pounds and pence as well please.

 

[Baz]

That's irrelevant. You stated, plain and simply that we wouldn't pay compensation, which we then did. You now seems to be stating as a fact that KLD has had to "step in and take control" of the manager situation, simply because he has a relationship with the agency Le Bris is involved with. None of any of that is a fact, it's just you guessing.

 

[sinner]

Well this is informative.

 

[Things Change]

f***ing class how all of the shills are literally attacking this one lad and pulling his every single word apart because he might be on to something about the link with the agency.

Transparent as fuck!

I've said many times that it's clearly my interpretation of how things have panned out based on the information in the public domain. In the same way that at the time of that post I didn't think we would pay compensation for anyone.

Why do you think I'd be posting anything a fact? As I've already said, I'm only a fan, I know fuck all about what actually happens in the club, in the same way you don't.

Do you only ever post "facts" on this board?

Nice alter ego you have there. Your use of the pathetic "shill" has given yourself away.

Are you trying to claim that @Things Change is me posting on another account?
