The Girondins de Bordeaux will not go lower.

Sportingly relegated to Ligue 2 at the end of an apocalyptic season, the Bordelais were under the threat of administrative relegation to N2 (an effective time).

A soap opera that ended on Wednesday, the FFF comex having decided to draft the club three days before the start of the new L2 season.

The club must also be summoned by the National Directorate of Control and Management (DNCG) “to judge any immediate monitoring and control measures against it”, and the Girondins will be under “reinforced and regular financial control during the season. 2022-2023”, specifies the press release from the FFF.

A match against Valenciennes on Saturday?

He could receive Valenciennes on Saturday, for the 1st day.

Early Wednesday afternoon the match was not yet on the program of the Professional Football League.

The meeting had been left in abeyance "pending ongoing procedures", it is written on the LFP website.

Suffering from great budgetary difficulties, the Girondins were saved in extremis by the FFF, which urgently brought together its "comex" on Wednesday morning.

The leaders returned to the decision issued and confirmed on appeal by the DNCG, which condemned the Girondins to start the 2022-2023 season in National, at the risk of the club filing for bankruptcy.

The FFF followed the CNOSF

The Comex followed the conciliation proposal from the National Olympic Committee (CNOSF) on Monday, which pleaded for reinstatement in L2.

Not yet materialized at the time of the hearings at the DNCG, in July, the guarantees provided since by the club ended up convincing the Federation and its president Noël Le Graët, who had been very critical of the management of the club six times champion of France.
