Who will stay at AJ Auxerre next season? Christophe Pelissier or David Wantier? This is a question that will be difficult to answer for the Chinese owner of the club, James Zhou. Or not, according to the latest banners from Ultras Auxerre 1990 this Wednesday.
While the Ajaïstes have just ensured their maintenance in Ligue 1, the main group of supporters of the team have clearly positioned themselves in support of their coach, at the same time demanding the departure of their sporting director. “Wantier out”, “cheater”, “get lost”, we can read from the bridges of the Icaunaise city.
The Ultras are unhappy with the management and methods of their leader throughout the season. “Mr. Wantier, being a poor sports director is one thing, being a liar and manipulator is another”is vehemently denounced in a press release. “This sports director in no way embodies our club, or any viable project. His aversion towards the supporters also makes him more than detestable. »
Guy Roux: “We have to let Pelissier be a real manager”
Conversely, the Ultras Auxerre 1990 have once again called for Christophe Pelissier to remain as club coach next season. “Its values, its mentality and its know-how are the DNA of the AJA: humble, honest, courageous and with few means”, they pointed out.
An opinion shared by Guy Roux. For the legendary former Auxerre coach, David Wantier “There’s nothing managerial or athletic about him.” It would even be “vital for the AJA, which does not need a sports director, to eliminate this position!
This would allow us to have one more good player in the squad. and let Pelissier be a real manager”, he assured, in comments reported by
The Team.
