Administrator Stan Posted July 24, 2018 Administrator Share Posted July 24, 2018 Just now, Eco said: What's the occasion? just a holiday. my mate's parents have a villa in Biscarrosse there, which is about half hour drive from Bordeaux. They go every summer for a few weeks. There's about 7 of us going this time though to enjoy a week of chilling out and exploring wherever we didn't go before.

As a new fan of this league and of the team, I need to find some good sources of information. Any ideas @Batard? I do know some French so it doesn't have to be in English. Depends what you want to know? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

...Dan Posted April 22, 2021 Share Posted April 22, 2021 They've been awful owners, and now they're leaving the club in the shit. Sad times for a historic club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted April 22, 2021 Share Posted April 22, 2021 I'll never forget the story where they didn't want to sell one of their players whose release clause got activated on deadline day so they just didn't answer their phones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
