For the Bad Gones, “OL’s soul is crumbling” because of “apparatchiks” – SO FOOT

It was better before. Ejected from the Europa League by West Ham on a scathing 0-3 Thursday, Olympique Lyonnais now only has the championship to hope to qualify for a European Cup. The tenth in Ligue 1 will try to approach it on Sunday against Bordeaux, but it will have to compose without the support of the north turn. The Bad Gones have indeed announced in a press release published Friday evening that they will boycott the meeting. “It is not lightheartedly, but we have no vocation for the moment to contemplate this sad spectacle. The heart is no longer there for the moment, ”they justify.

The group founded in 1987 thus denounced a team “which is only a sum of individualities without soul and without mind”, but especially shot at the direction: “In certain strata of the club, lovers of football and ‘OL have been replaced by financial analysts, legal advisers, etc. Apparatchiks who do not have the love of the club necessary to exercise these functions with respect for this institution. […] It should no longer be surprising that the soul and identity of the club are disintegrating at the same time as the EBITDA (the gross operating profit) and the financial balance sheets are progressing… It is time that the love of OL, the football club, not the leisure company listed on the stock exchange, regains the upper hand and that we find our soul and our identity. The people have spoken. QB
