LFP: the UCPF demand the resignation of Frédéric Thiriez – The Équipe.fr

There is no doubt. The UCPF, the historic union of professional football clubs which now brings together 20 L2 boarders, plus three National and only one of L1, Guingamp, met in General Assembly on Thursday. Its representatives are calling for the resignation of Frédéric Thiriez: “ Given the current institutional impasse, the UCPF considers that such a step can be accomplished with a re-legitimization of the Board of Directors the LFP. Therefore it calls for the resignation of the president of the LFP, which, for many months, has failed in its mission by not playing its role as unifier. The UCPF calls for a vote to that effect at the next AG LFP scheduled end of February . “

For several weeks, as you have revealed on December 10, the UCPF, through Jean-Michel Roussier, former President of OM and member of the board of the LFP, tried to rally some presidents of L1 in an attempt to overthrow Thiriez and its Board of Directors. Without success. The union decided to act openly to end the mandate of the president Thiriez.

In addition, the UCPF, recognizing that says “ full leadership role Ligue 1 ” has reaffirmed its agreement on a few following principles. The League should be the home of all the French professional football, incontestable and uncontested. The UCPF expressed support for the 2 + 1 system for up and down, she wants a long term warranty on the allocation of broadcasting rights between L1 and L2 and wants sales of the LFP composed of 9 representatives L1 and L2 3 representatives, and families. Finally she also wishes the transformation of the LFP into a commercial company, whose management must be entrusted to a strong executive and independent Economic Development.
