• Wednesday evening, the prefect of Loire-Atlantique published an order before the quarter-final match of the Coupe de France between Nantes and Bastia.

  • A measure prohibits supporters from circulating in the city center of Nantes, since yesterday evening, midnight.

  • The reactions are linked on the networks, since this announcement.

It is a decision that questions and that has made some people jump.

Wednesday evening, the prefect of Loire-Atlantique published a decree before the match which will oppose FC Nantes to SC Bastia in the Coupe de France this Thursday evening at La Beaujoire.

Nantes supporters protest against this decree of the prefecture.

By its inconsistency, but also and above all, by the attack on the freedom of which the supporters feel victims.

Rightly so, when you look at it more closely, and especially article 3.

This stipulates that this Thursday, February 10, "it is forbidden for all persons claiming the quality of supporters" of the FCN and SC Bastia "to circulate or park within the perimeter of the city center of Nantes".

In summary, any resident of Nantes who walks around the city center of the City of the Dukes with a scarf or a jersey of the Canaries would be outlawed.

Supporters who do not have the right to circulate in their own city…

€30,000 fine

Immediately, many of them react on social networks.

The national association of supporters even seized the judge in chambers of the administrative court of Nantes.

Because anyone who does not respect this prefectural decree risks six months' imprisonment, a 30,000 euro fine and a five-year stadium ban.

Marlène Collineau, deputy mayor of Nantes, protested against this measure: “When is being a supporter of FC Nantes when you are in the streets of Nantes considered sufficiently dangerous to become a reason for control?

When does it stop?

".

The anger of the Nantes supporters following this decision gradually gave way to a share of humor, visible through many tweets.

Just got out of GAV friends..

On its Twitter account, the FFLoose was amused by this administrative measure.

What a laugh (yellow) before this quarter-final of the Coupe de France, where more than 25,000 spectators are expected.

It's up to them not to cross the city center now.

It must be said that the risk is great.
