Bonjour! Last season was looking promising at the halfway point, but ultimately ended in disappointment once again, although we did finish second, so have the prospect of Champions League football to look forward to this season. We’re getting closer, I can smell it.

Bonjour happy champers! You join us in the best position we’ve been in at the halfway point of any season to date. Another tactical tweak has been getting the best out of these Basque Boys, both in the league and cup, so could it finally be our year? Let’s f*cking go…

Bonjour and happy Good Friday! Welcome to another Groundhog Day in Bayonne, where we’re dusting ourselves off and preparing to go again after another third place finish. I’m convinced that these Basque Boys have what it takes to win this league, so I won’t give up…

Bonjour, and a very happy Vendredi to you! You join us in a familiar position at the halfway stage of season eight. We’re out of Europe and the League Cup, and have drawn PSG in the main cup, so that’ll probably be short-lived, but at least that way we’ll have no distractions from trying to finish strongly in the league. Let’s f*cking go…

Bonjour! If you’ve followed this adventure for all eight seasons so far, I salute you! I’m sure you’re just as frustrated as me that we still haven’t won anything, but we’re fresh off the back of a third-place finish, so let’s see if we can go at least one better this season. Let the summer recruitment commence…

Bonjour champers! You join us on the other side of the winter break, and ready to attack the second half of season eight. We’re in the hunt as usual, but we all know what can happen between now and the end of the season, so we won’t go into all that. Lets go…

Bonjour and bienvenue! After another trophy-less season, and another fourth-place finish, we’re dusting ourselves off and preparing to go again. The number eight might be lucky for the Chinese, but will this be the year of the Basque Boy? Let’s f*cking go (again)…

Bonjour! and welcome back for the second half of season seven. You join us just six points off the top of the table, and well-placed for a second half of the season title charge. There’s also the main cup still to play for as well, so let’s see if this will finally be the season when the French Basque Boys will go and win their first trophy…

Bonjour! Welcome along to a seventh season of the Basque Boys’ French invasion, which has to date been fruitless, but having reached a domestic cup final, and the UEFA Cup quarter-finals, is there evidence to suggest that we’re not too far away, and that season seven might be a lucky one?

Bonjour! We’re halfway through season six, and a formation change has seen us pick up some much-needed consistency. We’re fourth in the league, still in both domestic cups, and have made it to the quarter finals of the UEFA Cup. Let’s see if we can kick on from here…
