The pessimists will say that the Billère Handball Pau Pyrénées lost a point against Cherbourg. The optimists will answer that with the level of play glimpsed on March 29 against Les Manchois, Sporting d’Este, the BHB can hope for more than the 8th place announced at the start of the championshipas the common thread of this Proligue season.
And if you add the mind displayed to get out of the Angevin trap four days before, you have enough to imagine the rest and even a bit of next season which could be on a whole other level, for President Laffitte’s men.
This is what the BHB coach, Daniel Deherme, tells us, highlighting certain shortcomings and the points on which we still have to work, in order to acquire the regularity which has been lacking since September 10. It is therefore an optimistic coach that you will hear, because he knows what his foals need to work on, but he is also a tad annoyed, because he finds the time a little too long for his liking. However, he notes the rather insane calendar of his last 8 weeks.
This is why, facing the Cherbourgeois, he readily concedes that he enjoyed a high-flying meeting, which brings him right to the limits of the project he has set up for this exercise, which is just waiting to evolve…
