For Bordeaux Le Mag, the journalist Laurent Brunspoke about the non-aggression pact signed by the Ultramarines and the North Gate, which led to serenity in the stands and outside during the Cup match against Stade Rennais.
“Yes, it could have been done sooner, but old is better than never, as long as there is no big problem. When there is a death, when there is someone disfigured, it is already too late obviously… I think everyone spoke out against that. The journalists, the supporters, Jean-Louis Triaud too, the Prefecture, the authorities… We said that we had to call on intelligence. They are intelligent people in both groups… They won't be friends, it doesn't matter, you have to do the right thing, as was the case against Rennes. Ok, there are smoke bombs, chants, it got a little chaotic with the Rennes supporters… It's a stadium atmosphere, it's part of folklore. It remains within the framework of the athlete, that's good. I saw a lot of children, I saw the football schools who came back… That’s football. Everyone shares, everyone was happy that there were flags, chants… It's good, it went well, congratulations to all the groups of supporters who were intelligent. Like, it's possible. Now we have to do it throughout the season, in Bordeaux and outside.”
