Remember Troyes? Indeed, those where the days. We filled a mini-bus down to the game.Started in Amsterdam picking others up on the way through Netherlands and Belgium. Got down there mid-afternoonish, met up with other listers and leeds fans. Lots of good craick, good few and not a small amount of alcohol. Good game to, outsung the Troyes supporters. The the journey back after the game. Me and John got the mini-bus back to the hire firm about 6.00 in the morning. As they opened at 7.00 rather than just leave it there and have to come back later we went and found a market cafe already open and drank coffee till time to go back and be on the door as they opened. Got everything settled up and went home to bed

PSG and Monaco have rich benefactors now and marseilles are traditionally a top european club but most clubs get championship or lower crowds and I guess championship and lower wages. They also have the threat of a new 75% tax band coming in which will either see clubs go bust or players desert the league Anyone remember the game v Troyes.

Apparently his contract with St Etienne expires in 2015 so the timing would fit with your assessment. This time it feels to have more legs about it for me though. As regards swapping French top tier with our 2nd tier I do not think that is an issue. Apart from PSG I reckon wages in English Championship would be comparable with most French clubs and definitely St Etienne. I've already said he'd follow the money so I don't think the World Cup is a factor. You will have gathered I hope it is his agent behind this and I personally am not bothered about having him back.
