"It is believed that the Addicks boss has had a big say in bringing in Jeunechamps, 49, to the Valley."
Well, yeah. What boss doesn't have a say in who their assistant is. Why are you even saying this? Oh...
Riga didn't know who his last assistant, Karel Fraeye, was until he stepped through the door when he replaced CP. Surprised not be forced to just keep Wimmy Wim Wim as assistant (staying on as coach apparently).
I am glad he got the assistant he wanted. That is the proper way for things to be done.
I think you'll find that RD offered Karel as mastermind, but Riga stamped his pretty little foot, saying "No way José!", and RD said "Fair enough, José it is then".

I think someone else said on here: it was hardly a tough decision for Roland. bringing in a Belgian who is part of the network.
To be fair he wasn't really part of RD's network, he's been at Metz for several years (before Riga joined) and his time at SL only briefly coincided with RD's ownership

He did such a good job as inter-Wim boss, they are lining him up for another unbeaten spell.
Nothing personal, but once we have sent RD packing, can we introduce a club rule that we don't employ any Belgians for five years? Two years ago I could only name two - Tintin and Plastic Bertrand - and now I know more of them than I ever wanted to.

You could say the last 2 years have been completely surreal... add surrealist painter Rene Magritte to your list of famous Belgians...
Someone has to eat all the pies due to the fact that fans are boycotting the outlets.
He's not going to be happy with his portion of chips though is he.
Be even more cheesed off when they tell him they only have Diet Coke.
On the plus side, the catering outlets will be improving their selection of cheeses and high-quality chocolate
Hopefully no one will be buying, take ur own food, drink in the local boozers, don't buy programmes, if you want to see the teams look at the wonderful new screen ...............oh !
This is strange, why announce him today? Surely he had signed a contract before Saturday.
Why in the blue hell is he shirtless?? And seemingly slathering himself with butter? He's not playing, why does he need to change? No-one needs to see that. Wim's got his shirt on for Christ's sake.
It actually looks like Riga is very vigorously explaining to him why shirtless assistants aren't appropriate in the English game

Jeunechamps Assistant Head Coach
Wim De Corte First Team Coach (?)
Jason Euell First Team Coach
That's an awfull lot of coaches. No direction, as no director of football and Riga isn't the "Manager". Although IMHO he should be.

He's previously worked with Jose Riga when he was @ Standard Liege (first spell before RD took over it seems)
Is that Belgian for
Bertie bigbollocks?

Evidently he must bring something beneficial to the party.
But what puzzles me ...... is that a professional coach working with athletes where fitness is vital, appears so unfit himself.
