The opposing coach

The coach of Saint-Colomban Locminé, Jacques Pichardspoke before this championship meeting.

« You don't have to turn everything upside down either. We have all the matches so we watch all the matches anyway and we know exactly how Bordeaux plays. So there are things we are going to do in training this Tuesday evening. The only thing that will change will be that this is the only trip that will take place the day before. We will leave Friday noon to be at the hotel Friday evening. In a way it's good because we're going to start the new year with two days where we'll all be together. It’s another way to get to know each other even more even if we know each other better. Otherwise we're not going to change our habits, we're training this evening (Tuesday, editor's note), Thursday, Friday we're leaving. We will have dinner together Friday evening, wake up on Saturday morning, have lunch, then we will go quietly to the stadium. If the players have carte blanche for New Year's Eve or if it remains very strict? (laughs) We can't stop New Year's Eve. We warned them and we warned them again Monday evening. We only took a week off, they had a small individual program. In our heads we have to let go, even if mentally I think we are not tired. Mentally we are good but a break always feels good. We didn't see each other for a week. But we told them, 'Don't be stupid on Tuesday night because we're going to pay for it on Saturday. It's Bordeaux, it's not the little town where there will be 200 spectators. I know a few of them (smile), like anyone. Afterwards there is Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday so don't overdo it. Now it's individual responsibility. They know the sanctions, today we have a large group so someone who is not in line, somewhere… Now we remain amateurs. »
