OGC Nice informs its supporters of the availability of 411 seats in the visitor section for the Coupe de la Ligue semi-final on February 1st, a quota set by the LFP regulations and adhered to by Olympique de Marseille for all its matches.
Of course, following the rules to the letter is not a fault, but the decision quality of Olympique de Marseille to offer only just over 400 seats to Nice supporters for the Coupe de la Ligue semi-final is frankly not the best, and discontent quickly emerged on the Nice club’s forums.
Questionable, to say the least, is this choice, which is far from being the most judicious on the part of the Olympian club’s entourage, which could not have done better to increase the tension a bit more.
No one among the Marseille leaders questioned the danger of such a decision and the impact it could have on the supporter groups.
Indeed, in football, the so-called “scatterbrains” are not only found on the pitch…
