Sociedad announced Montanier as new coach

Le Foot — Sat, 04 Jun 2011 13:56:46 +0000

La Liga side Real Sociedad have announced Philippe Montanier as their new coach after reaching an agreement with the latter’s current club Valenciennes. Los Txuri Urdin have agreed to pay Valenciennes €500,000 and buy out the last year of his contract.

46 year old Montanier has led Valenciennes to two safe midtable finishes in his time in charge of the club. They finished 10th in the 2009/10 season and 12th in the recently concluded 2010/2011 season.

Sociedad have fallen from grace in Spanish football, going from a club that used to compete in the Champions League to one that just about avoided relegation last season. They were in fact relegated during the 2006/07 season and returned to the top tier of Spanish football only two seasons ago.

Montanier replaces Martin Lasarte as Sociedad coach.

York Denies Brodie bid

football writer — Sun, 15 Nov 2009 17:41:19 +0000

Blue Square Premier League side York City have denied they received any bids for striker Richard Brodie. His manager Martin Foyle however expects bids in the January transfer window for the forward. His goal tally was taken to 17 in midweek after he scored a hat-trick against Chester City. He also scored a brace in his sides FA Cup 3-2 victory over Crewe Alexandra last weekend.

League One side Huddersfield Town had been linked with a bid for the in-form ace but according to Foyle so far they haven’t made their interest concrete. He has however admitted that it wouldn’t be a surprise if Town boss Lee Clark did try to snap his striker when the transfer window does open.

Foyle told the York Press: “I’ve not heard anything from Lee Clark, Huddersfield or anybody else, but I expect to and, to be honest, expected to about ten games ago because it’s not just about Brodes’ goals. We’ve seen a massive improvement in him as a player this season and he will be on a lot of people’s radar. There will be speculation but, until I actually get a phone call, we will carry on normally. I know what will probably happen – we will get a derisory offer from somewhere.
