    Striker shortage hits OGC Nice again

    Dog Lee's refusal to sanction the quality incoming strikers demanded by coach Vierra cost Nice again yesterday in a dour 0-0 draw with mid table Rennes. Nice have only scored 23 goals in 32 league games this season and the refusal of Dog to address the issue in January despite having a £30 million surplus on transfer dealings led to the resignations of the previous 20% owner and CEO.
    Like Dogs other club, Barnsley FC, OGC Nice have the youngest squad in their league.

    Patrick Vierra may be gerrin little frustrated with the transfer restrictions imposed by Dog.

    "Le Parisien" are reporting that Vierra is in for the coaching job at Lyon.
