Attacked from all sides after the incidents that peppered the OM-OL meeting Sunday, Vincent Labrune said “have done everything” in terms of security. This does not prevent the Marseille president of wanting to “get out troublemakers” Velodrome.
After the sinking, the time is for survival for Vincent Labrune. Implicated in the incidents that led to the interruption particular, for about twenty minutes, the match Marseille-Lyon on Sunday night, criticized for its media reaction to these incidents, the president of the OM decided to beef up his game defense. Even leave the impression of reacting rather than acting. How, actually, otherwise interpreted this phrase: “ We have taken steps today that will not happen again .” The “ this ” meaning both violent outbursts observed in the stands of the Velodrome, the gallows with a puppet symbolizing Mathieu Valbuena and glass bottles used projectiles. On these three abuses Labrune wants clear: “ I am very annoyed by the gallows and I am very surprised that she was not removed immediately. Just as I find it outrageous to be able to bring glass bottles in a stadium. “
enhanced measures for the future
How about it? Very simply, listening to the president Olympian: “ We will take concrete measures, such as the resettlement of large safety nets behind the goals which have disappeared since the end of May 2014. It will also strengthen measures protection and security, controls and body searches at the entrance of the stadium. “Does this mean that the latter were released recently and that security measures at the Velodrome no longer were of the degree Required requirement? Again, Labrune rest in his boots right in denying any laxity charge. “ I will feel responsible if I had not done everything. If we had not done everything upstream, I ask myself questions. But then we had set up a special device with 750 stewards, including a number at the corner flags to protect players. The total cost of this device was 250,000 euros. After, we must also understand that zero risk does not exist and that no system is foolproof. “
It is true that there are a dozen fanatics who pose us problems for several months.
Vincent Labrune
The fact is that these incidents have obviously raised awareness to the President of OM the need to “ to clean ” in the stands of the Velodrome. On RMC , he confided his intention to “ together very quickly our fan groups ” to resolve the issue. “ was a majority of supporters are fantastic. But it is true that there are a dozen fanatics who pose us problems for several months. I alerted the chief of police on the dangers of certain individuals who disrupt the running of the club permanently. “Whether he had not given too much freedom and / or power these fan groups, Labrune retorted: “ I’m very comfortable talking about because 90% of the criticisms that come from the supporters, it is I who am the victim. Shake very seriously screwing with them for several months. We work in harmony with our supporters. We will assume and take responsibility, but we will not bear all the evils of French football or European “
Finally, the last point on which the OM manager was keen to defend themselves. The criticism he has received when he appointed the arbitration problems as the sole cause of the incidents. Remarks which had moved Patrick Kanner, Sports Minister, calling them Response President Om “ not up to the event .”: “ There two distinct topics I discussed Sunday evening that the coincidence has led to some amalgam that I want to dispel. There is one side a substantive subject which is security in stadiums, which is close to my heart for the Euro 2016. And there is a more trivial subject, the more folkloric related to the context of meeting to which I was questioned at the end of the match which is that of arbitration. I refute any confusion between these two subjects. That would be pretty irresponsible to do so. I have perhaps not been clear enough . “After such an episode, Labrune could he be tempted to leave his post? A priori not, though he admits, micro Europe 1 “ Being president of the OM is an adventure and a struggle to try to get things done in a good way. And, even if there is a psychodrama per day . “
