Regis le Bris - confirmed

[Baz]

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?

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

No, not you

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

Of course he was. He’d managed umpteen clubs to their boards satisfaction previously. Reduced wage bills, increased crowds, reduced average team age, avoided relegations, got promoted etc etc. But I think most on here wadve heard of him cos he was from Ryhope.

No, not you

Who then?

And nothing to say about the main part of my reply?

 

[riffraff]

Cmon people chill out. Turn your m/cs off and gan for a walk or a cup of tea or summet.

This mornings effort is impressive even for them.

Sorry I must have misinterpreted then I thought the below message was aimed at me, my apologies.

Don't apologies to him I quoted him your below post. He's been saying that RlB is a panic appointment and only came on the radar out of desperation, which as you've pointed out, is not the case. Another one who likes to post speculation as fact.

Di Canios Knees said:
I knew he was one of the “unnamed candidates” and I also know that he was in the running in January, but I wasn’t 100% sure when talks opened this summer like.

Here's one of them.

Speakman has totally messed the recruitment process up and so KLD has stepped in and went to the agent he has a relationship to ask for his advice. That's exactly what I've been saying throughout.

 

[offshore]

I'm happy enough to give him time but I also think this is last chance ranch for KLD and Speakman! If it goes tits up badly then he will probably jump ship and sell up! But I'm hoping we absolutely smash it and go back up winning the league 12 points clear!!

Angry bunch of fans we are like.

Gone absolutely mental since December like.

Ever since the Mowbray sacking and subsequent Beale appointment, it’s been very hostile on here.

The BCB thing didn’t help things either.

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

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

It sort of is the point though. Complaints about us appointing a mystery gaffer via a linked agency would far outweigh those if we’d appointed a name gaffer by the same agency. Some people just love to whinge and I know I’m one of em…….especially about SAFC. No doubt I’ll be back in full whinge mode by Xmas.

Well it felt like umpteen at the time.

The cup draw was an absolute disaster like, start to finish.

Hawk tuah

You answered me question anyway. I wasn't sure as I was only about 7 when he got the job.

This mornings effort is impressive even for them.

It's sad that a Sunderland supporter could be so divisive with his fellow fans.

Weird post.

 

[BarnesPark]

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

Hmmm.

Had you said “they haven’t paid compensation” you would have been correct.

The fact you said “they won’t pay compensation” made it factually incorrect, or in your words, bulls@&t.

Sometimes, it’s easier just to say that you were wrong.

 

[Major]

Amazing that people have different opinions and can be accused of being wrong. It's the basis of a forum and it would be a much better place if people could have spirited debate without the insults.

It's a ridiculous comparison though. Pep and Klopp haven't just been relegated after finishing the season in worse form than us and have done just a bit more than le Bris has.

Hmmm.

OK mate, whatever.

When we aren't having bickering matches of footy chants mate, I agree with pretty much everything you say
