Today: The Coach
Known as « Count Lord Coach » Sigismond von Fourchette und Fourchette has lead the mighty 1907 team to its greatest titles such as the « Challenge de la Goutte Champagnolaise » or the famous « Trophée du Casque à Boulon ».
It was thank to his early years spent in England at the Royal Military Academy of Fysthurst, that von Fourchette und Fourchette, a renown Prussian officer, brought his unique technique and Savoir-Vivre to Neuchâtel, a former Prussian Principality as we all know.
Called back by the Prinz for the WWI party, von Fourchette und Fourchette inconveniently caught a French shell during the Verdun battle in 1917 as his last words were “Maaaark”.
