-Four years ago, Nîmes played in Ligue 1. The club faced Marseille, Paris. He even won against big names. Today, crocos play their survival against much less known teams. The worst part in all of this is that the club is last in the national (3rd division of French football) 3 points from the 15th and first non -relegation, Paris 13 Atletico.
The last match, lost in Nancy, hurt a lot. Michel Platini’s training club went up to Ligue 2. Nîmes is close to a relegation in National 2. A shock for fans of the club. Cyril Roure has been a supporter for forty years. He is president of the “Nemausus” group. “Four years ago, we beat Marseille. Today, we play against Paris 13 Atletico. It’s very hard”he blows, still in shock.
Despite everything, the groups of supporters decided to return to the stadium. They who boycotted the matches will be there Friday at the Antonins stadium. To sing, to push, to hope for a miracle. The Olympic Nîmes no longer has the choice. It is to save or perish.
