During the previous round, OM had been controversial by deciding not to leave the recipe for the Coupe de France meeting to fans of Trélissac (N2).
A choice assumed by the Marseille management, which however surprised many. If a few Ligue 1 clubs do this, it is customary for elite teams to leave the entire ticketing revenue to the organizing club. This generally represents a significant sum for smaller clubs, and OM or others, with bonuses in their pockets, can thus continue their journey leaving a beautiful memory. Before the match against Granville, which will take place at the Stade D’Ornano in Caen in front of 20,000 people, Marseille has not yet really decided.
” We are ready to make a gesture, we think about which “OM told AFP, whose bad publicity linked to this decision also shows that a penny is a penny for the Provençal club, far from being in financial equilibrium. OM could decide to take part of the revenue to reimburse their travel expenses, and leave the rest to the US Granville, or to recover only half of a part which promises to be significant given the crowds expected. And Provence to point out that times are tough at OM at present, except to hire a new specialist like Paul Aldridge, recruited to facilitate transfers.
