The sporting director of Stade Brestois has criticised the timing chosen to schedule the day against homophobia in Ligue 1. The Breton sporif director in particular, Grégory Lorenzi regretted the timing of this campaign.

"When you want to do this kind of thing, you don't do it when there are key games," he said. With the refusal on the part of some players to participate (including Toulouse and a Nantes), the notion of fairness in the fight against relegation was biased.
