[The Large One]

Erstwhile manager of SC Bastia.

That's who.

 

[Driver8]

Manager of Bastia.

That's who.

Not THE Bastia surely?

 

[Foolg]

If you look at his record, it's pretty damn impressive.

He took them from the 3rd tier in French football (as Champions), then won the 2nd tier (As Champions, without losing a home game all season), to Ligue 1 (the top flight).
In 2012/13 they finished 12th, and this season they finished 10th.

Certainly looks good on paper.

How much money do you think has been wasted placing various bets on the 20 or so managers that have been linked.

Don't no why, but that tickled me.

John Matthews, you know nothing.

 

[Nathan]

9/4 second fav.

 

[Don Tmatter]

Better track record than Hyppia by look of it

 

[James Bond's body double]

Yes looks good, but again someone who does not know the Championship, does that matter?

 

[albionite]

Never heard of him before but has a good track record of getting french teams promoted.

 

[Algernon]

Will undoubtedly bring the rest of his coaching staff if he comes:
Fritz Schulders and Eric Neezantose.

They seem to travel everywhere as a three man "team".

 

[One Teddy Maybank]

No thanks, might end up with lots of mediocre French players.

It helps he's out of work, why did he leave? He has been replaced at Bastia by Claude Makalele http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SC_Bastia

Also of interest?? Hantz brought 32 year Old Djibril Cisse to Bastia....... what a goal! could do a job at Albion? click "watch on youtube"
