Watched the twins earlier whilst in the gym. The glimpses I caught, both did well. Though only small in stature they mixed it well. Connor didn’t quite have the legs to score after breaking away but good start for both.

audois Posted December 7, 2021 Share Posted December 7, 2021 (edited) Baho let coach Jamal Fakir go after their loss at Villegailhenc up in the Aude. Vinnie Anderson's side are now the only undefeated side along with Pia. They meet up on the last weekend of the year at VARL. Should be good with locals having a very experienced side including a quartet of Pacific Islanders. Villegailhenc are the reserve side of Carcassonne XIII and their basic recreation ground venue wouldn't I imagine be excepted in Elite 1 if they won the Championship. Pia have by far the best ground - indeed as good as most Elite 1 clubs have. It would be good to get them back and create a local derby of note with St Esteve. The only figures I've seen of late are 800 at St Esteve for Albi game and 300 at Toulouse for Villeneuve. FCL would have had I presume good numbers for Carcassonne game as the main granstand was full and their appeared a good turn out Sunday at Limoux for the Lezignan clash. PS - Albi on their opening game of the season looked up to a near 1,000.

Perhaps bring the elite back to 12 clubs & see some one-time clubs like Marseille, Lyon & say a Paris team perhaps.

ATLANTISMAN Posted December 8, 2021 Share Posted December 8, 2021 (edited) I used to love going to PIA lovely club and really happy for them to be back up there again (Well almost) Guy the Marie in the old days (Around 2004) did a short spell in the clink or suspended sentence for putting too much council budget into the club end result was he was eventually re-elected with a larger majority. The classic was 4 Aussie road sweepers who didn't do much road sweeping but they were pretty good at rugby league :)))) Paul Edited December 8, 2021 by ATLANTISMAN 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul Lyon is a traditional club and has history. It’s a shame their open age side is suffering because there is lots of good junior development ongoing. They should be supported, Elite needs big name teams to raise the profile, but not vanity projects. I thought Toulon was promising given they were also focusing on junior development but sadly it seems to have fallen by the wayside 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
