Bordeaux has folded!

newyddion · July 25, 2024, 07:26:23 PM

The club has informed the FFF that it is renouncing its professional status, first obtained in... 1937!

Contracts terminated the lot!

87 years down the pan..

Bordeaux achieved a domestic double in 2009, winning both the French League title and the Coupe de la Ligue in the same season.

Bordeaux has won the Ligue 1 title six times and reached the Champions League quarter-finals in the 2009-10 season.

Zinedine Zidane is a notable legend of the club..

GONE

Or did they just get BOREDeaux of footy?

I once trained my dog to fetch me a glass of red wine. It was a Bordeaux Collie...
And yes. He does PAW it himself...

Wow! A big outfit even though they've been languishing out of the top flight for a few years.
