the president of the RCT surprised and hurt by the supporters

Zapping World Fifteen Autumn Tour: The editorial team’s dream XV

Toulon is a little better in recent weeks. Proof of this is the 10th place in the Top 14 ranking currently occupied by the Varois, who were still, not long ago, at the gates of the red zone, or even completely inside it. Over the last five games, the RCT has had three victories. A somewhat irregular balance sheet, but more reassuring. What somewhat relieve the supporters but also the players, the coaches and the leaders of the club. Even if nothing is won yet.

In an interview with L’Equipe, club president Bernard Lemaître spoke about the fairly turbulent period the club went through. Between bad results and departures of players, the days were a little complicated on the side of the Rade. And the supporters did not necessarily go with dead hands with the leader of the RCT who had to suffer severe criticism, which hurt him. He also confides that he has never experienced such an outburst of violence against him:

“It’s the first time in my life. I’ve read everything. From “Lemaître is a jerk”, to “He sucks”. Or it was about “white cane” or “Ehpad”, that surprised me. Hurt too. I moved on today.”
