Twenty-six parliamentarians ask the resigning Minister of Sports to “to weigh with all one’s weight” to reschedule Ligue 2 matches on weekends, in a letter sent to Amélie Oudéa-Castera on Wednesday, September 4. These deputies and senators are giving their support to the supporters and players who have been angry since the resumption of the championship and the scheduling of a majority of Ligue 2 matches during the week.
“Programming only a tiny proportion of Ligue 2 matches at the weekend is an infringement on the right to leisure for workers”the parliamentarians write in this letter. “It deprives children who have to go to bed early during the week of the joy of watching their idols play.”they add. beIN Sports “despises the spirit of football”these elected officials believe.
This letter, initiated by the NFP MP for Morbihan, Damien Girard, was signed by a majority of left-wing and centre MPs and senators.
