I was scared by what happened

It's a miracle there was no death.

I don't want to experience a death in a stadium as president

the responsibility of all

".

You have to be brave and put these criminals where they belong, not in stadiums

,” he concluded.

"

We have regular meetings in common," said the former president of the LFP.

We will try to find strong arguments so that it does not happen again.

We tried everything: closing the stands, suspending the club, deducting points.

We have to be even more vigilant

that we can identify those who trouble our championship.

And it's easy today with the technical means.

That's a shame!

Our disciplinary arsenal is sufficient
