It was undoubtedly one defeat too many. Currently 13th in Ligue 2 with only three victories in ten matches, the Girondins de Bordeaux lost to the surprising leader, Laval, (0-1) on a goal from Tchokounté, this Saturday during the 10th day of Ligue 2. And in a press release published only an hour after the end of the match, the club, which has not tasted success since mid-September (against Valenciennes, 2-1), announced the dismissal of its coach.
“The management of FC Girondins de Bordeaux notified David Guion of his dismissal as a precautionary measure at the end of the match,” explained the former Ligue 1 resident. This news will certainly delight the supporters, who have once again asked the head of the French technician during the meeting. A vindictive banner was notably released during the first period: “Talking about non-existent whistles will not hide your incompetence”, accompanied by whistles and “Guion resignation”.

Appointed coach in February 2022 after the dismissal of Vladimir Petkovic, the former Reims coach narrowly missed moving up to Ligue 1 with Bordeaux last season by finishing third, three points behind Metz.
