As here against Brest, or against Nice and Lille, La Mosson and its Étang de Thau stand should push behind the MHSC. Midi Libre – JEAN-MICHEL MART
The MHSC returns to its stadium, this Sunday January 12 (5:15 p.m.) against Angers. Where the support should still be there despite the sporting situation. Words from supporters.
“We must continue, not lower our heads, stay united, especially now. It's a call to the supporters.” On Friday, Jean-Louis Gasset, with his unchanging cap on his head, sounded the mobilization like a general in search of a boosted morale. Against Angers on Sunday, Montpellier HSC will be playing for big things, probably a large part of its hopes of staying up. And for that, it hopes to count on the support of a public whose reaction will be awaited in a Mosson that is not yet discouraged.
“We will be there. We will encourage them. But we are not going to do anything crazy. We are waiting to see a real reaction and win”, promises Sylvain, capo of the Butte Paillade 1991 reassured by “the good match” in Lyon, despite the 1-0 defeat last Saturday.
Téji Savanier, sponge passed ?
“They fought, the image was restored a little. The anger has subsided”, he believes, after seeing red in the wake of the wreck in the Coupe de France in Puy-en-Velay (4-0), and the reaction of Téji Savanier to local spectators – “Last ? When you win €210,000, it's okay”.
It's more stupid than anything else. Téji, he has La Paillade in his heart.
Three days later, on December 24, the Ultras published a press release in which they criticized the players and management without mercy. The playmaker had taken a beating. Two weeks later, La Mosson seems ready to turn the tide. Like Kevin, a regular in the Roussillon stand. “He responded like a guy from the Gély estate, like a guy from La Mosson. Nothing more, nothing less” , he smiles, recalling the sometimes borderline outbursts of Loulou Nicollin in his time. “It's more stupid than anything else. Téji, he has La Paillade in his heart”, Sylvain adds.

“Afterwards, there are inexcusable facts and a deep evil, he continues. We were patient. If it happened in other clubs, it would have exploded a while ago”, affirms the spokesperson for the main Montpellier supporters group.
In recent days, discussions have animated the BP91, which has wondered about the conduct to adopt according to the scenarios of the match against the SCO. Its support is still relevant. But a defeat would undoubtedly revive the protest. “Those who are at the stadium will see it clearly”, Sylvain breathes. “We are not here to put spokes in the wheels. We love our city, our crest. We don't give a damn about the players. But the club, the history, that's what we are here for”, he assures.
As against Brest, Lille or Nice, the Etang de Thau stand will therefore remain solid on the support. Kevin, who defines himself as a “average supporter”, adheres to this line. “When you are a supporter, you are one for the good sides, but also for the bad. You have to be behind them despite everything”, exhorts this school teacher.
They believe in a rebound
If this nostalgic of the Blanc or Valderrama years would not view with a bad eye a return to the second division, “to rebuild calmly”, he wants to believe in a rebound. “I am not at all fatalistic, on the contrary. The boss (Laurent Nicollin) scolded them to make them understand that they had to get moving. I can't believe that they are going to give up and that things are going to go badly”, positive-t-il.
“The D2 and the relegation, I experienced them. And even if they had heart, the guys were not good. Those ones, with heart…, judges Sylvain. Now, luck has to turn and the black cat, we give him a big kick in the mouth.”
“In life, as long as there is hope, we must not give up”, slipped Jean-Louis Gasset, Friday. La Mosson received the message. She is waiting for the return on encouragement.
