On Sud Radio, the former playmaker, Alain Giressewas invited to speak about former players who speak to the media about the situation at the Scapular, and who demand the departure of Gérard Lopez.
“No, Patrick Battiston does not condone all that, but he was in a bad position (to speak) in order to have a correct dismissal, I would say… The Dugarrys, Lizarazu, who are notable players, who are from the region like me am, we talked about all that… They say the same thing as me about management. Except that it's someone now who still remains in control of the club, and who doesn't give up. Today, the club is in receivership, it is the receiver who is there, and for the moment he says that it can continue to live… But there is still a reprieve. We don’t really know what it will be exactly.”
And obviously, “Gigi” has heard the reproach that can be made to them, namely that “they don’t put in any money”. He insisted on answering it.
“Then what do we have to see?!” We are told that we must provide resources… are we still going to give money to this gentleman? To do with it what he did with it? Wait, let's be serious… We're not at the same financial level as Mbappé, otherwise we could buy the club… It's nonsense when we talk about that because we're here, and ultimately, we only have the eyes to cry.”
