Site writing LesViolets.Com absolutely want to give you the floor. On a daily basis, we suggest that you publish YOUR articles on the front page of the site in our section “La Lettre du Violet”. Here is a new letter, signed Zach, 23 years old, from Toulouse:
“38 days have passed between August 22, 2020 and May 15, 2021. And honestly, we, TFC supporters, have been through all the situations: from the disappointment caused by a catastrophic start to the season to the joy that we could have. get the 20 Toulouse victories this season, through the procession in tribute to Christophe Revault, through the deliverance match against Auxerre or through the few defeats which cost us the first two places.
Let’s talk about these defeats, because they are regrets.
Each defeat this season unfortunately corresponds to a moment when Toulouse Football Club could have taken a certain advantage over its competitors, at a time when our club had the cards in hand to go ahead:
Dunkirk and Caen, at the start of the season, and here is a false start worthy of Usain Bolt in the 100m during the 2011 world championships.
The match against Valenciennes at home is the first chance for our Violets to get on the podium. While we were leading 2-0, we finally lost this match 4-5 not without shining a right side named Cuffaut.
Against Auxerre, the defeat is clearly deserved, but it prevents us from going first and sees Clermont come back to two points of the second place which we nevertheless held.
Facing Rodez, the wind seemed to be turning when Troyes was caught by Valenciennes, but the latter blew with force to propel a devastating shot from Bonnet to the back of our nets and prevented us from taking first place while Clermont stung us. second place.
These Valenciennes will surprise us two weeks later: Clermont takes off and Grenoble catches up with us.
The match against Niort is surely the turning point. It is the opportunity in gold set with diamonds, rubies and emeralds to overtake Clermont and Troyes in order to be first in Ligue 2. But it will not happen, Adli loses the ball and Ibnou Ba crucifies Dupé.
The KO took place against Paris, our players, too tired, let Clermont go ahead. The Clermontois will not let go, they will go to Ligue 2, accompanied by Troyes.
Certainly defeats … But there is reason for hope …
At the start of the season, who would have bet even one euro on a third place for Toulouse FC? Who would have bet on the emergence of Amine Adli or Janis Antiste? Who would have thought that we would have a great transfer window with the arrival of well-made players like Dejaegere, Van den Boomen, Machado, Spierings, Healey, Bayo, Dupé or even Dewaest in winter? Who would have thought that we would garner 20 victories and honestly, almost all deserved with guts and a more than correct level of play? Who would have thought that we would be, in terms of number of points, one of the most prolific third in Ligue 2 in the history of the single pool with 20 teams?
All right, we’re not going to go straight up. I admit it to you, we will have to go through the dams, beat Grenoble or Paris and then have to deal with a round-trip meeting against the 18th in Ligue 1. But sincerely, let’s imagine June 15, 2020, imagine Damien Comolli coming to us and say to us “Dear supporters, I promise you a guaranteed third place, with the possibility of seriously playing the first two places”, 95% of us would not have hesitated for a single second to sign.
We must believe in it, do not let go, until the last second, everything will play out, and it is together, until the end of the day, that we will leave Ligue 2 BKT with our heads held high, and that we will go up in Ligue 1 Uber Eats!“
