In Greg's Teamit was about the current crisis that the FC Nantes. The historic club is experiencing problems, has no real objectives, is experiencing a conflict between groups of supporters and the president Waldemar Kita. Without forgetting that the group of supporters of La Brigade Loire is subject to dissolution by the Ministry of the Interior. Certain similarities make us think of the period that we went through Bordeauxand which is not yet finished. The subject was as follows: Nantes: the permanent crisis.
Why is this a permanent crisis?
The journalist Vincent Duluc reacted to the fact that the Nantes president continued to inject money into the club, despite everything.
« Whereas they could have been Bordeaux today. […] We really don't care about history. It's the history of football, that some clubs go down and others go up. We must stop supporters feeling like they own a past. It’s the history of football, we go up, we go down. There is no permanence, apart from the crisis, in the clubs. »
The presenter Gregory Ascher also made a connection with Bordeaux and its president Gérard
Lopez :
« I tell myself that they don't have Gérard Lopez. Should we be content with not being Gérard Lopez and Bordeaux, or should we be demanding because we have had a history and a DNA, which means that historically, we are almost football ? »
What the former Girondins player and current consultant
Benoît Trémoulinas answered:
« It's very complicated, indeed there are examples. Before, it went up, it went down, but for a good ten years, it went down and it flowed… That's the subject that can be discussed. When I say 'it's flowing', look at the Girondins de Bordeaux… There have been other clubs, Dijon, Le Mans, Bastia, even if they managed to come back, Strasbourg… It's complicated. I don't think we can be satisfied with that. Yes indeed Mr. Kita puts in the money, he honors the salaries, he put it back into the pot during the Covid and well done to him. But the problem is that it's good to do that, but you might as well surround yourself well to try to create a project. What I find that Nantes has been lacking for all its years is a real sports director. There were guys who came, agents to make transfers, there were lots of problems on that side. If there had really been a sports director in place, with a guiding guideline in this club. That there is a president, ok, but if there is a sporting director who knows a little about the image of the club, the values of this club…”
