The Paris parking lot was half full… or half empty on Sunday, in Troyes. It depends. And for good reason, the 450 tickets allocated to the Collectif Ultras Paris had been canceled on Sunday morning. Never mind, the Parisian Ultras still took the road to the Aube city. For nothing. Some stayed at the toll (250?). Others were denied access to the stadium on site (200?). “Despite sincere discussions on our side, neither the club nor the prefecture were able to offer us a solution to get into the stadium. Their only answer was “the return to Paris”, and all this despite the illegal side of their actions, which they half-acknowledged”, can we read in a press release published Sunday by the collective. And to conclude: “We take note of this serious and disproportionate decision”. Note that several hundred Parisian fans, not from the CUP, still took their places in the upper part of the visitor parking lot.
According to various sources, the decision of Paris-SG must be understood as a sanction after seeing a few dozen supporters shouting their anger outside Neymar’s home on Wednesday. An action that the Collectif Ultras Paris – which had called for demonstrations on Wednesday in front of the Factory – did not approve. Note that a banner hostile to Nasser Al-Khelaïfi, president of PSG, was deployed on Sunday… by the Estac ultras: “Nasser, president who prefers greenbacks to his supporters. Welcome to PSG!”. We imagine, without too much risk of being wrong, that it was the Parisian fans who asked their counterparts to deploy it… In summary, and despite the victory (3-1) which brings Paris closer to the title, we imagine that the next meeting at the Parc des Princes, Saturday against Ajaccio, will be explosive in the stands… We can also say that the fracture is substantial between PSG and its supporters.
