the beautiful stories of social networks (yes it exists!)

The starting point is the same for these three stories: a lover of the Girondins who makes a tweet. Then the magic of social networks operates and everything accelerates. An open letter that ends in the locker room, a trip to Lebanon that ends with a meeting or even how to be appointed referee of a Girondins match

Jules and his open letter taken up by Grégory Coupet

Jules, aka ahhhhbc on twitter, is 19 years old and he is in love with navy and white. On April 18, hurt by the club’s poor results and worried about the future, he let his heart speak or more exactly write and published an open letter on twitter a few hours before the very important match against Saint-Etienne to raise awareness among the players. This letter goes viral when Grégory Coupet retweets it. The goalkeeper coach will even go so far as to photocopy it to display it in the Bordeaux locker room. For 20 minutes, Bordeaux led 2 to 0 against the greens, everyone believed that the letter had worked including Jules who regrets that it did not have more effect.

Today a freelance journalist in Beirut, Lebanon, Gabriel remains passionate about football and the Girondins de Bordeaux, he contributes to the Caviar magazine, quarterly that puts football and society into perspective. At the end of March, beginning of April, he launched a challenge on tweeter: if I come from Beirut to see Bordeaux-Metz, does anyone have a place for me, he says in substance. Contacted by the club, he will finish the meeting, one of the too rare victories of the season, in the locker room and will leave with the jersey of Joshua Guilavogui
