but THANKS lol
Also, it's not 'he's not', he's still the youngest just 'not by 5 years' anymore lol
Yeah, only recently acquired from Lausanne. Good player though. Massive upgrade over the injured Beaulieu.
Btw, tonight's game (Kloten leading 2-1 in the 3rd) will be Mitchell's last as head coach. The "watson.ch" article I posted claimed that the new head coach was not a Mitchell hire. Kloten then released a statement that Mitchell was "involved" in the process.
This article by a different media outlet now says that that's just part of the truth. Apparently, GM Mitchell and his front office were informed but Club presidents decided to hire Mair (the new head coach) anyway despite Mitchell and other members of the Front Office (for example former coach Tomlinson who's now, for health reasons, in an advisory role) being against the hire.
Strange timing after the recent wins. Also not sure why they would treat Mitchell like this. He's a poor coach but maybe still the best option to close out the season because the players are clearly playing for him.
He may have made mistakes as a GM as well (hire of Fleming, signing Beaulieu etc) but overall he's done very well with the limited options he had. Kloten doesn't nearly have the financial options of most of their NL competition.
Dank Larry Mitchell liegt der vorzeitige Ligaerhalt wieder in Griffweite. Seinen interimistischen Platz an der Bande muss er dennoch räumen. Und bei der Trainerwahl wurde er übergangen.
