Due to a sanction following the use of smoke bombs in Reims, the visitors' parking lot is supposed to be closed to supporters of the RC Lens during their trip to Le Havre on January 12. But the Artesian fans, supported in particular by the mayor of Lens Sylvain Robertdemand its opening. A letter was sent by the Lensois elected official to the prefect of Seine-Maritime Jean-Benoît Albertini, underlines L'Equipe.
This closure will not prevent Lensois supporters from traveling, as illustrated by numerous past examples, involving Sang et Or fans like other clubs which have had to face this type of sanction. They therefore believe that this could cause even more problems. In his letter sent Tuesday, the mayor of Lens Sylvain Robert shares these fears according to L'Equipe, estimating that the sanction “ risks being bypassed by Lensois spectators who will buy their tickets directly at the Stade Océane and will thus find themselves scattered among the Le Havre supporters » Let us point out that no prefectural decree currently prohibits the arrival of Lensois supporters in Normandy and this is obviously not the wish of the latter, nor of those in high places in Lensois.
Quick responses expected
Already during the reception of PSG in the Coupe de France, a banner was released in Marek by the Tigers: “ Prefect 76: for a haven of peace, open the parking lot! “. Last Monday, the deputy for the 21st constituency of the North Salvatore Castiglione addressed the prefect of Seine-Maritime to ask him that a “ constructive solution, making it possible to open the visitor parking lot or to supervise the presence of Lensois supporters in a dedicated and secure space, can be found quickly. » Note that the Tigers, who had already contacted the prefecture on December 18, got in touch with their Le Havre counterparts to try to move forward on a solution. The Ultras Lensois also hope to be able to benefit from “clear” communication on the situation well in advance of the organization of the match.
