Amiens challenge, not Toulouse
” What shocks me deeply is that our game is governed by rules, 90-minute, 38 days.

The order paper is not, however, completed : the chairman of Amiens, warned Friday that it “will return to the State Council” to challenge this decision, which will according to him ” destroy the club of Amiens, with dozens of families who will lose their jobs “.
