  • Last in Ligue 1, the TFC receives Strasbourg this Wednesday.
  • If he is angry with some of his most fervent supporters, the club has received the support of other clubs in the Pink City in its difficult struggle for maintenance.

When we are last in Ligue 1, we hold on to the smallest bit of hope, like the small point brought back Saturday from Amiens (0-0). Before the Strasbourg reception on Wednesday, this draw leaves the TFC six points behind the Picardy barragiste. But L1's worst defense (47 goals conceded) finally remained waterproof, which allowed the team not to equal the record for twelve defeats in a row in the first division. It's always that ...

The Toulouse people also want to believe that the support shown by the other big clubs of the Pink City will help them in the quest for a maintenance which is now unlikely. “It is a particularly original initiative, judges Jean-François Soucasse, the deputy president. I do not know if there is a precedent in such a context and a city of this size. "

The TFC would like to warmly thank the pink city clubs for their support and encouragement: the @dauphinsdutoec, the @StadeToulousain, the @FENIX_HB, the @SpacersToulouse, the @TOXIII and the @TMB_Basket 🙏

The operation "All behind the TFC" was launched last week by the swimmers of the TOEC Dolphins, neighbors of the Violets on the Ramier Island. It was relayed on video by the Fenix ​​handballers, the TMB basketball players, the Spacer's volleyball players, the TO XIII treizists and the fifteen players from Stade Toulousain.

Didier thinks of "Olive" and "Jeff"

"I am convinced that you will get there," said Didier Lacroix, president of the Rouge et Noir, for example, who took the opportunity to kiss "Olive" [his counterpart Olivier Sadran] and "Jeff" [Soucasse]. "It's touching," slips Jean-François Soucasse, who indicates that amateur football and rugby clubs have also transmitted their support.

Thank you @StadeToulousain ✊🏼https: //t.co/6g2Jxz8sF3

“This sends us positive vibes, resumes number 2 of the TFC. The message was heard with a first result and a rather satisfactory performance for Amiens. It is a great encouragement to continue in this direction. "

"Feeling that the whole city of Toulouse, in any case a certain number of clubs, is carrying out this action to support us, we welcome this with great kindness," notes Denis Zanko. Even if the coach knows well that it is not Maxime Médard or the handball player Luc Steins who will plant against Strasbourg the goal of a championship victory which escapes the TFC since October 19 (2-1 against Lille) .
