Anticipating a smaller crowd than in the championship and with the revenue to be divided in two according to the rules of the event, the Bordeaux leaders anticipated a “financial loss” if they played in their usual lair and decided to relocate the meeting . As the Bordeaux town hall does not wish to make the Sainte-Germaine stadium available, whose pitch will already be put to heavy use next weekend with the National 3 match at the Stade Bordelais on Saturday and that of the Lionesses in rugby on Sunday, the Girondins have reached an agreement, which remains to be finalized, with the town hall of Talence to play the match at the Pierre-Paul Bernard stadium.
With or without an audience?
With or without the public? Vice-president Arnaud De Carli, general manager Arnaud Saint-André and stadium manager David Lafarge must meet this week separately with the leaders of the Ultramarines and North Gate in order to try to find a solution so that the two groups can work alongside each other in speakers other than the Matmut Atlantique. A plan to be proposed to the Prefecture is being developed for separate entrances to the Talençais stadium, which has a 1,250-seat stand and at least equal handrail capacity.
The trend in view of precedents (against Poitiers and Bourges in the championship, Bassens in the Coupe de France) is however behind closed doors.
France 3 has, like Sunday in Bressuire (2-0), submitted a broadcast request.
