PSG receives Strasbourg on Saturday August 14 at 9 p.m. at the Parc des Princes.
And his ultras will be there.
This Thursday, they wrote a statement to explain their decision in the face of the new conditions imposed to ensure the return without gauge of the public in the stadiums, a year and a half after the outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic.
And if the Ultras Paris Collective (CUP) recalls its attachment to “individual freedoms”, it accepts the implementation of the health pass as well as the absence of gauge and mask within the Parc des Princes.
"It is indisputable that the health pass constitutes an exorbitant restriction on freedoms," writes the CUP.
However, we are neither epidemiologists nor virologists and we do not know what measures, if any, would be necessary on an exceptional and temporary basis to get out of this situation which weighs so heavily on us.
(…) We have, after having discussed it at length, decided to return collectively to our Park under the proposed conditions, namely without gauge and without mask ”.
Even if this decision is collective, the Parisian ultras warn, however, that each of its members “must feel free to make their own choices: vaccine, test or refusal of the health pass with return to the Park at the end of this crisis.
There is no bad decision, nor is there a good one ”.

This press release from the CUP comes as Ligue 1 resumes this Friday evening and several ultras groups from France, such as Saint-Etienne, Montpellier and Nantes, are refusing the implementation of the health pass.
They will therefore boycott the resumption of the championship.
