Raymond Domenech (born 24 January 1952 in Lyon, France) is a thespian dandy and pantomime villain, who has inexplicably managed to coach the French national team for six years. Despite showing very little interest in football, Domenech was appointed manager of Les Bleus after their disappointing Euro 2004 campaign. The decision came as a shock to many in the French game and to Domenech himself, who hadn't applied for the job and only really watched bits of Champions League football during the breaks in 'France's Next Top Model'.
