Samuel Eto'o Posted May 8, 2018 Share Posted May 8, 2018 Watching Les Herbiers supporters and players so happy and joyful to receive runners-up medals at the Stade de France is very heartening indeed. Some of that magic has been lost in football in recent years. Such is the different in clubs: Les Berbiers manager doesn't even have his coaching badges yet!!

Marc Posted May 8, 2018 Share Posted May 8, 2018 All things considered a 2-0 loss is very respectable as well. are they in the 3rd tier? What kind of home attendances do they get? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What kind of home attendances do they get? Yes, the third tier, and might get relegated! They don't even get 2,000 in attendance. Played today in an 80,000 Stade de France. Captured the imagination of the entire nation. PSG having Les Herbiers captain lift the trophy together with Thiago Silva on the podium was a very nice touch. Thiago Silva isn't my favorite player in the world (one of my least favourite, actually, meant to do a "Who's Your Least Favourite Player" post) but that was very classy on PSG's part. Something we're not used to seeing/not something you see every day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Stan Posted May 8, 2018 Administrator Share Posted May 8, 2018 didn't realise this was today. Massive effort to get to the final and to only lose 2-0 to what was still a strong PSG side (included Cavani, Mbappe, Lo Celso, Silva, Dani Alves, Rabiot) is commendable. Not sure if PSG took their foot off the gas, mind Wonder if this publicity and financial reward of getting so far will help Les Herbiers in the next few seasons.

Emery was saying that he made sure to put out the strongest possible squad today to show Les Herbiers respect. Gallantry and "doing things the right way" is still alive in football.

Marc Posted May 8, 2018 Share Posted May 8, 2018 They’ve done fantastic getting this far but having their captain lift the trophy with Silva? Fuck that shit. They still didn’t win it. It isn’t an U8’s 5 a side competition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having them lift the trophy with them is beyond the wierdest thing ive seen in a while. It's like rubbing it in their faces and i'm astonished they agreed to it.

Rick Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 Ridiculous they allowed them to lift the trophy. Regardless of how well they did, they lost and losers dont get to lift the cup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
