The defeat of Rowing provoked intolerable behavior on the part of Basque supporters: glass of water thrown in the face of the referee, insults… The latter cracked and uttered insults in turn. He sent a report.
(Very) bad habits come back quickly. The stadiums barely authorized to reopen their doors sparingly – or a little more, the Aviron Bayonnais, which had obtained an exemption from the prefecture to welcome the public in the evening despite the curfew, seems to have forgotten that the gauge remained however set at 1,000 spectators… – that the most stupid supporters are already at the rendezvous. We were able to realize it, via the ambient microphones: return of insults towards the referee, whistles towards the opposing striker and other niceties.
In Jean-Dauger, Saturday evening, it is even going further. According to information from the ActuRugby site, the referee of the meeting between the Basque club and the Stade Français, decisive in the race to maintain, would have been attacked at the end of the Parisian victory, 9 to 12. In question, a last penalty whistled in favor of the Parisians by Mr. Raynal.
Our colleagues relate that at the end of the meeting, a Basque supporter attacked the referee, throwing him a glass of water in the face. Intolerable aggression. There followed an unpleasant exchange, picked up by the referee’s microphone and heard on Rugby +. We hear a man’s voice (Mr. Raynal?) Launch “Je t’ammerde son de p…”, then a woman yell at him “What you did to us is disgusting!”. The source of the answer – “Shut up!” – hardly doubts, we recognize the voice of the official of the Occitan League. Which, between the water caught in the face and the concert of insults, has visibly lost his temper.
Still according to our colleagues from ActuRugby, Mr. Raynal will send a report to the National Refereeing Directorate relating this stormy and unacceptable end of the match.
