That’s where Dandy McLean was hit by a beer bottle in the “Battle of Bordeaux” - but shrugged it off saying it was a light ale !!! 😂

Well hopefully he can pick up a couple of signings like last time from Bordeaux, Kozma and O’Boyle if memory serves!

I doubt we have £600 grand to replicate Kozma.

Considering where Bordeaux now play, I doubt they have any players worth signing. It will be interesting to see if they march back up the leagues to get to where they used to be.

I’ve no doubt a club like Bordeaux has every potential to get back to the top league of France. That truly is/was a big club. There bound to be a certain amount of fans that will return especially if they manage to progress early.

I’d actually love to see it.

From what I have read, Bord seems to have deposited five million euros to secure the takeover with the same amount to follow in a second tranche of funding (to be sealed off to cover the costs of the forthcoming season). However, the deal is off if the French sport authorities stick with the decision to relegate the Girondins to the sixth tier, rather than allowing them to continue in the fourth tier. With Lopez (former Bordeaux owner who also owned Boavista) off the scene, the authorities might see this funding as sufficient to secure the immediate funding of the club and rescind the double relegation, giving Bord a gambler’s chance of making a fortune by restoring the team to something of their former glory with a couple of promotions.

The hearing about their appeal against the double relegation is on Wednesday. Make or break for not only the Bord takeover but realistically also for the club’s survival.
