Strange, strange, strange. Doubt it has much impact overall - but he wasn't sticking around for some reason. If we're stuck with Riga then at least get an English assistant who knows the leagues in. Noticed Andy Hughes moved to palace this week - he would have been ideal.
Date: Wednesday, 10th August 2016 BREAKING NEWS | ANNOUNCEMENT Charlton Athletic are pleased to announce Jose Jeunechamp as our new Head Coach who will spearhead the League One campaign. Jose Jeunechamp had a successful, albeit short spell as Assistant to Jose Riga who left in May, after his successful spell. Jose Jeunechamp led RFC Seraing to an impressive 17th Place finish in his term and stated, "it has always been my dream to coach Sharlton Athletic. I've always been an avid supporter, listening to commentary on my old transistor radio when I was young. This club has been in my heart and soul and will look to make one or two signings and get this club back to where it belongs." Latrine Miere was delighted in the signing of Jeunechamp and stated that "after an exhaustive search and interviewing 210 candidates," the likes of Curbishely, Clough, Readfurn, Boothroid, and many many more, "we felt that Jeunechamp had the required skills that we were looking for." Marc Leliévre is his Assistant Coach. The pair will take charge of our first game against Walsall at The Valley.
Its a circus. Worse than that, its an utter embarrassment. We appoint nobodies and we quickly fire nobodies. Then we re-hire them when we are even deeper in the ****. I repeat - Rotherham hired Neil Warnock FFS.
He will have to join the queue behind Bob Peeters, Guy Luzon, Wim de Kock, and Karel Fraeye of course
And the Palace fans call us Clowntown. Many a true word. Maybe Roland will cut the costs to the extent of doing away with the whole management structure, and the first eleven players to arrive on a saturday will start the match. Pathetic really, but at the same time, nothing this season is a surprise.
Why has this latest fat Belgian non entity left? Surely his appointment was the right decision at the time, and he was a success?
He had to go. Riga's previous assistant successfully masterminded our escape from relegation, which jeunchamps failed to do, so he had to go.
He has left us for a job with a Belgian 2nd division club. A sign of the times. Karel Fraeye must be sitting by his phone this afternoon.
Got a funny feeling we haven't seen the last of him, especially now that he's "experienced" in English football.
A realistic question to the club - why would fans renew when the average turn around in playing staff is less than the year they ask fans (customers) to commit to? Forget Pinocchio masks - these are the hard hitting Q's that need to be addressed. KM isn't on hard to answer that, which I understand, but these are the points that they need to make aware to the casual fans who don't use social media.
