PARIS, Aug 25 — The French league called for “collective action” after ugly scenes caused the abandonment of Marseille’s game at Nice, in a letter to the country’s government and seen by AFP on Tuesday.
The LFP also mentioned objects thrown onto the field during Marseille’s game at Montpellier on August 8 and at Rennes’ home match with Nantes on Sunday as well as crowd trouble in three other top-flight fixtures this season. NES said the work on the south stand would take two weeks and be ready for Montpellier’s visit on November 7.
