French Coach Raymond Domenech is known to be interested in Astrology, which has led some to speculate that he may use the Horoscope to select his starting line-up. No word from Domenech himself on this. when asked what he thought about playing on Friday the 13th he quipped:
“I’m not superstitious,” a relaxed Domenech told a news conference on Thursday. “It brings bad luck.” (Reuters: Superstitious Domenech)
Weather or not he uses Astrology to gain that competitive edge, he hasn’t lost his sense of humor. Domenech is both a colorful character and a very successful coach. He is known to rile up his players by saying he uses telepathy and distrusts his Scorpio players (USA Today: France coach unfazed). Well, whatever he’s doing, it’s working. He’s got a great coaching record – with or without the help of Astrology.
