Kita: “I think it’s a lack of good manners”
Monday, Our Waldermar said he was “disappointed” with the way the club was received, and in turn attacked his counterpart. “What is said is not very correct on his part, because if you want to discuss something, you have to be correct with people and welcome them well.

I find it a lack of good manners and we were left aside, alone in the stadium”, replied the president-owner of Nantes on Monday. remarks reported by The Team.
And continued: “He (the president of Drancy) did not come to see me, we did not have a coffee or a drink together, we must not dirty people like that. We must be respectful and polite .

The District “takes the opportunity to salute the journey of JA Drancy and Football Club 93 who did not just reach the 32nd finals: they welcomed Ligue 1 clubs to our Department and made them popular festivals and family.
