“I'm not disappointed, no,” reacted Mathieu Bodmer after the elimination of Le Havre by Stade Briochin. Mathéo's father, who made his first appearance among the pros at the age of 20, analyzed: “When you see the match we produced, it's logical, in fact. Saint-Brieuc deserves its qualification. It’s neither a scandal nor a theft.”
Mathieu Bodmer told the players after this umpteenth disappointment. “It was their competition. Unless I saw it wrong, not many people have won the Coupe de France in the locker room. »
“Those who don’t want to come back in 2025, they just have to raise their hands”
17th in Ligue 1 and therefore relegated, already beaten eleven times in the league this season, Le Havre is going through a difficult time. “If I have to talk about attitudes, then I’m angry,” continued the former Guingampais. It's not the first time, but it's starting to happen a lot. The players have a week's vacation. Those who do not want to return in 2025, they just have to raise their hands, we will find solutions. Those who want to get wet can come back, the others do what they want with their lives.”
The Normans did not play a Cup match against the Stadistes Briochins. “We didn’t even play a football match,” scolds the manager. To do one, you need intensity, combat.” His anger has also spared Didier Digard, his trainer and friend, as nothingness has struck. “It would be too easy to shoot him. The players showed a lack of respect for the club, the supporters, the staff. It wasn't a trap, we lost against a good team that plays football. »
