Regis le Bris - confirmed


Press speculation by the likes of Oliver, hardly suggests that there was any truth in the rumour at all
I read this bit as saying ‘Oliver Hardy’ :lol: assistant manager Stan Laurel.

Loses games and gets booed off the pitch.

“Well Stan, here’s another fine mess you’ve got me into.”
 
Of all the insane discourse we've had on here over the years, discussing a Le Bris replacement after he's managed to get us to finish comfortably in 4th and has the playoffs coming up, is the most batshit of them all.
It's come from him being spotted in a London hotel seemingly being interviewed for another job. That's all.
 
Why would they want to stay in the Championship to make losses every year? The Premier League is where the money’s at.
Having said that though, the last transfer window was a bit puzzling - really can’t my mind up about these owners atm
They aren't making losses. Player trading is after each set of accounts and looks positive. This season we'll have sold Clarke and Watson. In the summer who knows whk else. The player farm.may lose a bit initially but its break even or profit after 3-5 years. Whilst keeping wages low. They may even sell once this years crop go if they can't see another harvest on the way.

According to the Echo they made a loss of around £8m last season, and £9m the season before. Are they wrong?
 
That's a shocking and a very telling statistic. As I always say its not the fans who sack managers its club chairmen.

It's the chairman the appoint absolute disasters in the first place.
We are a big club with huge expectations. First point of any appointment should be how you manage this and guide the team. Alex Neil managed this unbelievably well and was a good appointment.
However, nowadays, the success of the manager at Sunderland has turned into success on the field. Régis has done extremely well but some want rid of him.
Even the coaching staff get an absolute hammering.
Dodds got of lightly. Just remember Bracewell. His fault because he worse grey, put weight on and didn't smile much.
 
We’re going to see a different Le Bris tonight. Don’t be surprised to see something new. Not saying it will work like!

As for sacking him if we don’t go up or even bomb completely in these next two games, that’s utterly ridiculous
I would be surprised. I think we'll just try the same old shit again.

Yep playing with effectively 9 men when rigg and isodor are totally non existent, id at least play rigg on the left if he has too, no doubting his work rate but on the ball he offers nothing and that in turn makes isodor look terrible

When your year ends before player trading they're right. If you include the Clarke sale to last year you'd like be much closer to break even. And looking at next season, Watson gone already, and more to follow, expect a profit.
