Facts are uncomfortable, deal with it. When are you going to stop drinking the Kool-aid ? That's what the American people want to know...unless you are on SR payroll, directly or indirectly, which I suspect more and more. I can't stand Multi Club model, being relegated to just be a "faire-valoir" at best. I'd rather restart in National 3 to keep VAFC 's identity intact.

It was "if it is broken, consider not fixing it" if I remember well. He is such a genius to the point of being confusing. SR are doing well on that front to be honest, but what is going to cook my noodles later on is, how does Rasmuss manage to keep Gotzepe afloat ? is this just a fluke ?

Buy Joachim Kayi Sanda from farmer club Valenciennes FC for 5M euros last year because he is the "best Center back in the world", exact words from Wizard Ben Chorley in April 2024, played a few minutes for Saints A team last season, then loaned to French 2nd Division team Red Star for which he has not played at all ? we don't buy mediocrity, we breed it...That's SR's Multi-club model way.

That is the SR effect; centralize data player metrics and statistics at SR's headquarter for identical play across teams. We don't buy mediocrity, we breed it...

If it is too good to be true then it is not true.

But wait, there is more ! Apparently they also acquired Mali Coura FC earlier this year, a Malian 2nd division club (source: Wikipedia). How did that fly under the radar ? Feels like SR is specializing in mediocrity. All SR teams are now playing in 2nd division or lower except for Göztepe S.K , these wankers are lagging behind, they need to go down too to meet SR's standard of living!

Apparently SR must be raking in the dough otherwise how could they afford buying a 4th club (Levski Sofia) and their recent investment in UAE club Rimal Al Sahra ? How they make money is beyond me. I just wish SR to go bankrupt at this point to stop the pain.

Why do you feel sorry for him ? At the end of the day, the buck stops with him ! He was a fool to associate himself with Rasmus Ankersen and Henrik Kraft, and a fool again to hire Spors. If a business man makes poor decisions then it's all on him. As the great philosopher G. W Bush once said "Fool me once shame on me, fool me twice shame on me again"

Yes Sir!, There is another club even more mismanaged in Europe, it's Valenciennes FC! Oh, wait...

Exactly, his track record at Reims and Lens speaks for itself. Overrated.

Big Merde! There is no hope as long as SR will stay at the helm of the club. The governance is horrible, The guy sent by Solak lives in Dubai and rarely shows up; Feels like he does not really give a merde. How can you succeed in Football w/o leadership ? It is worse on the pitch though, a bunch of overpaid mediocre has-beens/never-was players, that run straight like chickens with their heads cut-off, that only care about their big fat checks at the end of the month. The only one that stands out is Rento Takaoka, why ? Because he is fit, because he has work-ethic and give it all out until the last minute.

Thank you kindly for the clarification; I initially thought you were showing respect to Sport Republic.

yep, correct, kicked out of the French cup on 1st round by an N3 team; better laugh than cry at this point; this club has become a joke.

unable to compete against National 3 team IC Croix ?!

Exactly; We had the same situation with Ben Chorley as sporting director for Valenciennes. For 2 years he was living alone in Valenciennes while his family remained in London. We went down the 1st year and had a terrible run in National the following year.

SR performance on the pitch is as dreadful as their website that has not seen an update since May 2024... I am eager to see their financial results for 2024/2025.

isn't the real issue the hiring of Johannes Spors ? I find it ironic that the only "successful" club in SR's experiment is Gotzepe, directed by Rasmus Ankersen...

How about a Chairman that actually gives a crap about the club to start with ? Dirk Gerkens lives in Dubai; he is not at the club on a daily basis to shake things up when needs be. This is unreal, SR are just a bunch of morons flying blind. Makes me miss the previous owner, at least we were in Ligue 2.

Are you serious ? has-been retired players and Monstrogoths running like chickens with their heads cut off; This team is going nowhere but down. Budgets: Saint Brieuc = ~1.5M, VAFC = ~11.5M Are you freaking kidding me ? But worse of all: no work ethic. is SR out yet ?

Playing sterile possession football, with hasbeen and unskilled golgoths...while Rouen brought danger with 3 to 4 passes and was far more effective the entire game; this coach is another Russell Martin wannabe. Hopefully we will miss promotion to force SR to get the F out and end the pain.

I can't believe you guys are thinking of buying this turd. Average Ligue 2 player at best; never raised his level up to be a Ligue 1 starting eleven. RC Lens' fans are happy to see him go.

Yep, I am ready for another shite season in National under SR leadership.

"The best CB in the world", according to Ben Chorley (April 2024) is now heading back to France. 5M Euros ? All that for that... https://www.southamptonfc.com/en/news/article/kayi-sanda-heads-out-on-loan

VAFC is fulfilling SR's farming club strategy; Joachim Kayi Sanda was the first, leaving to SFC 6 months ago; now Souleymane Basse is heading to Gotzepe. https://le11hdf-fr.translate.goog/vafc-mercato-souleymane-basse-sur-le-depart/?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-US&_x_tr_pto=wapp

I'd give Matthew Le God a Devil's advocate award, nobody beats him.
