For the moment, the balance of hopes is balanced. While the recovery takes shape after the winter break, the young columérins have a total of 2 wins, 1 draw and 2 defeats. 7th out of 9 in a ranking difficult to interpret because of the many postponements, Colomiers continues to adapt to the environment of this elite group for which they obtained the entry ticket this fall. “We have a young workforce compared to the category, we lack a little experience and therefore we are rather mixed as regards the results”, admits Christophe Pigozzo who co-trains the team with Romain Mémain. “Our two defeats occur during our two trips (Toulouse and Bayonne) and we conceded heavy defeats without defensive bonus that is what we regret the most”, admits the coach whose training is however a faultless home. Fallers of Agen and La Rochelle and authors of a draw against Mont-de-Marsan, the hopes are doing what is necessary to ensure the maintenance, at least not to have a jump-off to play in September, in this group very spicy.
The chance to play
The roadmap therefore seems to be respected, especially since the matches against Racing 92 and Stade Français have been postponed. Moreover, the poster against the Parisians has been reprogrammed on February 6. While waiting to have to go to the capital, a new shock awaits Colomiers with the trip to Bordeaux scheduled for this Saturday at 3 p.m., this is also a reprogrammed poster counting for the second day. Such is the daily life of a group living “from day to day” as Christophe Pigozzo says, tossed between the results of covid tests, the postponements of matches and the puzzle of training schedules with the curfew… ” It’s difficult to project, to plan anything, but fortunately the young people are adapting well and are aware of the chance they have to be able to play “, greets a coach who also knows that it is not everyone’s case.
