On the sidelines of the match of the 16th day of Ligue 1 this Saturday between OL and Montpellier, the Bad Gones displayed a banner against Laurent Nicollin.
OL supporters multiplied the banners for the first of the year against Montpellier. If the Bad Gones paid tribute this Saturday to the newly retired Lisandro Lopez and their former goalkeeper Anthony Lopes, they also sent a message against Laurent Nicollin.
“Laurent Nicollin, unworthy heir of his father”, we could read in the north turn of Groupama Stadium. The president of Montpellier has been the target of criticism this season in particular for his proximity to Vincent Labrune, the boss of the LFP, culminating in a controversial outing on the price of the subscription to DAZN, the new broadcaster of the League 1.
A very complicated season for Montpellier
This Friday, l’Equipe also indicated that Montpellier was discussing with Wissam Ben Yedder. Without a club since his departure from AS Monaco last summer, the striker is the target of several legal cases, the latest of which for “psychological violence” against his wife. The couple is in the process of divorcing.
Laurent Nicollin became president of Montpellier in 2017 after the death of his father, who had led the club since 1974. This season, the MHSC is also celebrating its 50th anniversary but the exercise is currently very complicated. After 15 days, the team led by Jean-Louis Gasset is bottom.
