It is a resignation that FC Mulhouse would have done well. The president of the football club, Gary Allen, announced in a letter dated July 12, which France Bleu Alsace was able to consult, his immediate resignation of the Upper Rhine club. In this word addressed to the vice-president of the club, he assures that he can no longer “fulfill his functions as president of the club” for “personal reasons”.
A resignation which comes at the worst time for FC Mulhouse. The DNCG, the financial policeman of French football, announced on Monday the administrative demotion of the Alsatian club from National 3 to Regional 1, for budgetary reasons. FC Mulhouse had eight days to appeal.
