Regis le Bris - confirmed


Again mate, not for me. Heckinbottom would also have been a garbage appointment, not a safe one at all, a no ambition one. Bris is still better than Hecky though.

Still, Maric, Fuentes, Svenson etc would all have been seen as exciting appointments. This is rubbish.
From what I’m lead to believe Maric and Still were top 2 choices 🙈
 
The list of 5 is a joke as well. Especially as the rest of the season played out. Maybe they mean a list of 5 quickly drawn up after Still turned us down

He's not that young and do we really want another coach who is difficult on a human level ? Wasn't that Beale's biggest problem ?
 
Saw an article saying he was always on the shortlist of around 5 names since we sacked Beale.
Delay has been caused by Still being the number 1 choice and throwing everything after him only for him to jump ship just as he was boarding the SAFC brigade.
 
Looks to be a far better fit for us and I often wondered how long it would take our French owner to look around France for a new boss.

Hopefully this comes off and he can guide us to at least the top six next season.

That of course is dependant upon speakman and Dreyfus giving the bloke the backing and support he needs.
 
He was on a five man shortlist drawn up in February when we sacked beale

But we’ve interviewed about 35 people before we got to him this summer

They must have misplaced the short list. Full of absolute shite these fuckers. They think people are thick 😂😂
Succession planning :cool:

Sounds like a sound recruitment process has identified the right man, technically and tactically adept, but not going to be mates with the players ... Dodds retains that arm round the shoulder link and acts as a buffer. (a big hooray to the first to put an L I to that last word).
 
Sit back play mostly around their own box and then try to be direct over the top. Not really possession based and doesn't really use wingers or play much in the final 3rd
To answer the questions before you know nowt about lorient then.

He had the 12th most long balls in the league they certainly weren’t an over the top team 😂
 
Well it seems it’s drawing to a close. Know fuck all about him, but let’s see how it goes…

They certainly know how to instantly rub people up with the narrative of being on the short list etc. Read the room, and even if he was, at this point it’s better not to say anything due to the length of time it’s taken!

Good luck Regy lad, think you’ll need it.
