Zapping World Cup 15 2024 6 Nations Calendar
RC Toulon is angry and has made it known. The Var club had little appreciation for an article written by L’Equipe last week. Toulon decided to break its silence after the publication of an article last week by the media, which talks about the condemnation of Rugby Club Toulonnais, confirmed by the Appeal Commission of the French Rugby Federation, concerning its failures in transparency and cooperation. Except that L’Equipe wrote an article about it on September 13 and Toulon did not like it, releasing a press release this Wednesday to attack the media.
Toulon attacks L’Equipe
“The RCT wishes to respond to the publicity that the lequipe.fr website heard, on Friday, September 13, about a decision by the FFR appeals committee, in an article entitled “Salary-Cap: Toulon condemned on appeal for breaches of transparency and cooperation”. Firstly, the RCT wishes to point out that in no case has it been sanctioned for a violation of the Salary Cap ceiling. The Club strongly reaffirms that it has always respected this obligation. As for the alleged “breach of the General Obligation of Transparency and Cooperation” alleged in this article, the Club is extremely surprised to learn through the press of the presumed reasons for a decision that were neither notified to the Club nor published by the FFR. The RCT wishes to point out that the concepts of transparency and cooperation give rise to random interpretations by the authorities of the National Rugby League, the Club thus being subject to the variable geometry application of this regulation. This arbitrary treatment therefore continues through such media manipulation. The RCT specifies, as necessary, that it will be able to use the useful avenues of appeal once it has become aware of the entire decision of the FFR Appeals Commission”, wrote the RCT this Wednesday in its press release, which is very scathing towards L’Equipe.
To summarize
RC Toulon is angry and has made it known. The Var club was not particularly impressed by an article written by L’Equipe last week. Toulon decided to break its silence after the publication of an article last week by the media, which talks about the condemnation of Rugby Club Toulonnais, confirmed by the Appeal Commission of the French Rugby Federation, concerning its failures to be transparent and cooperative.
