Following last weekend's results in Lg1 the Official OGC Nice Website has announced--
"With three games to go until the end of the season OGC Nice will not be able to secure the 4th place finish needed in order to qualify for the Europa League next season. As a reminder 5th and 6th place will not obtain a ticket for Europe, unlike last season when PSG took home both national cups".
The spiral of OGC Nice's decline continues under Dog's ownership as the once successful club again fails to qualify for Europe. Nice fans are restless blaming Dog's transfer policy not sanctioning the quality, experienced players required, particularly strikers, and instead enforcing a "buy young and cheap, develop and sell" policy which has generated a large transfer budget surplus. This and other financial issues has created boardroom unrest and the resignation of a long serving part owner and the long serving CEO. OGC Nice are presently the third lowest scorers in the league.
Coach Patrick Vierra has worked wonders to keep OGC Nice in the top half but may become increasingly frustrated and the better players may seek European football elsewhere.
