Montgivray
Vierzon (3)
It’s difficult to see clearly. Between a possible group of 12 to 14 teams in R1, the bonus points linked to fair play, the outcome of Pool A of Regional 3 remains undecided.
In Montgivray, President Julien Varenne carries out “Apothecary accounts for a month. Honestly, it’s complicated to navigate. » One thing is certain ! In the event of a victory against Vierzon’s C team, Michael Brunet’s players (8e) will be saved.
The last three go down to the district. And the best ninths of the four R3 groups could be saved. “Everything is tight. There are a lot of “ifs” before this last day”breathes Julien Varenne.
“It’s up to the players to move, it’s only their fault”
Michael Brunet, coach of Montgivray
And the opponent is aiming to climb to Regional 2 but depends on the results of his B team, also in the race to reach R1. A final match which should offer a Hitchcockian scenario.
“As we start this match, we are in R3. A draw would suit everyone”, smiles trainer Michael Brunet, who regrets this race for maintenance. Too many parties and a lack of investment in training partly explain this position in the rankings and this infernal struggle. “It’s up to the players to move. It’s only their faulthe exclaims. We should have been maintained for a long time. »
“Everyone is for Montgivray this weekend”
A coach used to experiencing a hold or a climb on the last day. “We should experience this scenario in the years to come because the national reform does not favor small clubs like ours. »
And this meeting will also be scrutinized by La Châtre and Poulaines in D1. A descent of the Indrian club would lead to the fall of one of the two Berry teams. “Everyone is for Montgivray this weekend”underlines, a bit mischievously, the president of the USM.
And even La Châtre, the historic rival. “All three of their teams can go down. » “We support Montgivray and all the Indre teams”, adds Yves Chastang, president of La Châtre. The internal rivalry is, for the moment, buried.

“We will play the match to the fullest”
Certain to go down administratively because of a breach of the regulations for his U15 team, Villers (7e) “will play the match to the fullest” against Yzeures-sur-Creuse (10e) still concerned by maintenance. The Indrian club can play the role of referee and allow Montgivray to leave a new team behind. It will also be the last match for coach Clément Massenet after three years of good and loyal service. At the same time, Argenton (4e) will travel to the leader (Portuguese Bourges) in a meeting without stakes, except the podium for the team coached by Thierry Leroy.
