It smells like gas in Forez, and not just on a sporting level! This Saturday, ASSE sank on the pitch at Stade Rennais, losing heavily with a score of 5-0. A painful setback for the Stéphanois who have been struggling since their return to Ligue 1 and who are in a worrying 15th place. To try to move forward, Olivier Dall'Oglio's men, more weakened than ever by this failure in Brittany, will have a lot to do during the next day with the reception of Olympique de Marseille on Sunday evening in closing of the weekend.
A threatened shock?
A shock which, however, sees his good behavior being questioned, according to our information. Last Wednesday, the perimeter surrounding the Stade Geoffroy-Guichard was closed until Friday following gas leaks noted in the ground and the discovery of different pockets of gas. On November 29, the Loire prefecture announced that the pipe had been repaired, but that the SDIS continued to carry out ventilation operations. Le Chaudron, which was to host two events on Friday evening, the first BUT graduation organized by the IUT of Saint-Étienne, as well as the opening of the new temporary exhibition at the Musée des Verts, had to close its doors. And if the situation is normal in the stadium, the presence of gas was again noted today in the adjoining streets. The ventilation work is still in progress, hoping that everything will be resolved before Sunday and the reception of the Olympique de Marseille.
However, with the match taking place in seven days, we can imagine that the situation could logically evolve positively as the match will be held 10 days after the discovery of the gas leak on Wednesday November 27. New readings will take place in the coming days before dispelling the various concerns. This morning, a lifting of restrictions took place for the Musée des Verts as well as for the Brasserie, which announced its reopening yesterday, and traffic has returned to normal on rue Guichard and rue de la Tour, as stated TL7.
