Before the Ligue 1 clash between OM and PSG this Sunday evening at the Vélodrome (Canal +, 9 p.m.) and while waiting to be able to go to the stadiums again, the Parisian supporters are sending their messages as they can. During the Champions Trophy, they went to sing for the players when they boarded at Le Bourget airport. This week, for the match against Nîmes at the Parc des Princes (3-0), they had set up a banner at the foot of the Auteuil Virage at the address of their team: “A clasico is played with hatred for love of the jersey ”.
This absence of the stadiums obviously does not prevent the faithful from following the news of PSG and, naturally, of their Marseille rival. Especially when events such as the invasion of the Commanderie training center by supporters leads to the postponement of a match (against Rennes) to a week before the clasico …
“It might send wood!”
“It makes me laugh softly, slips Kevin, 31, ultra from PSG. Looks like the club is 18th, while not at all. We had waited until we were 18 with five games from relegation to be angry (Editor’s note: in April 2008). There, they put themselves in an incredible situation…. “The attitude of Marseille supporters who attacked the players surprises this loyal PSG. “Invading, throwing projectiles at their players is quite rare. At the Loges camp, we had discussions, Sylvain Armand’s car had been tickled a little, but there had been no violent action on the players. “
This “rather bizarre” situation could, according to Kevin, have a “hyper motivating effect for the players”. “But if there is a way to push them in a little more, you shouldn’t hesitate,” he adds. If we can sink them by putting 5 or 6 or 7, it will have to be done! “
Jérôme, 46, including thirty to support Paris, believes for his part that after these events, the Marseillais “have never been so dangerous”. He explains, “If they don’t motivate themselves now, they will never motivate themselves! All these changes do not suit us. The closed session will rather help them, the match will be on Canal… They will want to mark the occasion and not want to sink. It might send wood! “
Member of the Ultra Paris Collective (CUP), Nabil, for his part, “laughs thoroughly at the OM situation”. “When I think back that two months ago, they thought they were playing the title, it makes me laugh, he says. Seeing them implode is sweet revenge after their first leg arrogance (Editor’s note: Marseille 1-0 victory at the Parc). ” Nabil has not forgotten Dimitri Payet’s room in August either. “Their only success is to make fun of our defeat in the Champions League final,” he laments. Frankly… We don’t play in the same court anymore and it hurts them. “
The declarations of André Villas-Boas, before or after the Champions Trophy won by Paris, have not passed to the Parisian ultras either. “It was a joke, slips Nabil. His team sucks and he spent his time talking about the financial gap between the two clubs. If I were an OM supporter, I would be happy if he left. “
“We promise them a Champions project and nothing happens”
More broadly, Nabil understands the anger of Marseille fans towards the management. “We promise them a Champions project and nothing happens,” he emphasizes. They may have abused them by going to burn trees at the training center, but the banners against the management, I understand them. “

Even the latest rumors of the sale of OM to Saudi Arabia do not leave indifferent in the capital. “I can’t wait to hear from the supporters on the subject when they’ve been talking about Qatar for ten years,” says Nabil. Being serious, a new OM shareholder can only do them good. We might have more rivalry like that. “
