The Basque club wanted to react to the events that occurred during the match against Stade Toulousain on November 3, notably involving part of the red and black staff.
The video went viral on social media. In the images shot by a spectator of the match between Bayonne and Stade Toulousain on November 3, we see Ugo Mola and Jean Bouilhou speaking vehemently to people present in the public. Viewed by nearly 400,000 people, the video suggests that the Toulouse staff would scare certain spectators present at Jean-Dauger.
