Suspended a match closed last month following incidents on the lawn of the Stade des Alpes at the accession dam against Perpignan, Grenoble, who had appealed, finally saw his transformed sanction was a suspended match on Friday. The FCG will therefore be able to receive Aurillac on its lawn during the 2nd day of Pro D2 in early September.
On September 5, Grenoble will receive Aurillac on his lawn of the Stade des Alpes as part of the 2nd day of Pro D2. Initially, this first home meeting of the season, the FCG should have played it away from its lair. The fault of the incidents that have occurred on June 14 at the Alpes stadium during the accession dam between the Grenoblois and Perpignan, won by the Catalans (13-11).
At the end of the meeting, the supporters of the USAP, who came in number in Isère that day to support the San et Or, had invaded the lawn, in the same way in the process as opposing supporters. The presence of the two camps on the field had given rise to clashes. And it is precisely for these clashes that occurred at the end of this accession dam once again fatal at the FCG that the Grenoble club had received a heavy sanction.
Heavier more than that which had received Perpignan, only punished for a suspended ground suspension match, when Grenoble, also forced as his winner that day to pay a fine of 25,000 euros, had received a match of ground suspension, not with suspended but firm.
Grenoble keeps her fine, she was even swollen!
This should have forced the Isérois to play their first game next season at home, against Aurillac on September 5, elsewhere than at the Alpes stadium. The FCG had also launched in search of another speaker that can welcome it to face the Aurillacois. The Pompidou stadium of Valencia held the rope until the request of Grenoble, which had appealed the decision, does not succeed.
This Friday, the firm terrain suspension therefore turned suspended suspension, such as that inflicted in Perpignan. The FCG will therefore not have to find another stadium to host its first home game for the next financial year. On the other hand, he will have to pay a fine. It has even been revised upwards, and now amounts to 35,000 euros.
