In Marcoussis
A few minutes after the resignation of Bernard Laporte from his position as president of the French Rugby Federation, the nine members of the opposition Oval Ensemble of Florian Grill announced their resignation from the steering committee of the Federation.
These leaders denounce the establishment of an interim president, the treasurer Alexandre Martinez, until at least June.
“It's a
real hold-up, a denial of democracy by imposing an interim president without legitimacy.
We asked the clubs for their opinion and we don't take it into account.
It's a putsch
, ”regrets Florian Grill, beaten in the elections for the head of the FFR in 2020 (48.53% of the vote).
“We do not understand this solution of hanging on”
“
The steering committee has chosen the interim statutory route.
We do not understand this solution of hanging on.
In conscience, we have therefore made the healthy and responsible decision to resign.
The steering committee has no obligation to launch an election to replace us
, ”added the president of the Île-de-France regional rugby league.
