A story that begins during the Second World War when Father René Gallice becomes a player for the Girondins de Bordeaux. These two children Andrew and Jeans will also be professionals in navy and white. The family will also be the first to see a father and his son be in the France team.
René Gallice had Alain Giresse sign his first contract in 1970: 2400 francs (360 euros)
Alain Giresse and Jean Gallice will make the best of the Girondins from 1971. By staying until 1986, Gigi will know the intoxication of the titles of which Jean and André Gallice will be deprived when they leave the club at the very end of 1970. But to hear them both it is to witness an obvious complicity. Especially when Alain Giresse remembers having signed his first contract with the Girondins de Bordeaux with René Gallice for the pharaonic sum of 360 euros!
Guion gives a certain identity to the team
If the financial stakes of today’s football bother them, they still follow the Girondins and Jean Gallice, who as a coach won the European Under-19 Championship in 2005, follows the young Bordeaux players
I think David Guion’s position is not very easy, but in fact he had the merit of doing with what he had and then trying to give the team a certain identity. Young people, on the whole, we see that they have qualities. It’s always the same. You have to confirm that over a number of games and because I find that at the moment, as soon as you have made four or five appearances in Division One, that’s it, you’ve arrived, you’re going to break everything. Then you realize that you still need a little more maturity to be able to express yourself completely – Jean Gallice
Alain Giresse will not be able to be present during the match against Metz or some old ones will come to blow the 141 years of the club. He will be selected as Kosovo coach in the draw for the Euro 2024 qualifying phase ! Leading the Kosovar selection does not prevent him from following the Girondins!
It is quite honorable what they are doing! What about the game in Laval? Well, we are not going to come back to events that have been favorable. It’s a tough league with teams that aren’t easy to maneuver. It’s less technical than Ligue 1, there’s commitment, we’ll have to do it over time. Knowing that there are only two teams going up, we must not make any mistakes and we must be present until the final sprint which is important – Alain Giresse
Hold out over time to hope to restore the Girondins de Bordeaux to their rightful place: league 1! We must therefore continue to chain victories and particularly against Metz, Saturday at 3:00 p.m. at the Matmut Atlantique.
