APPEAL LODGED WITH THE FRENCH AUTHORITIES TO SOLVE THE SITUATION OF TRAVELLING SUPPORTERS IN LENS

We have lodged an urgent appeal together with the Association Nationale des Supporters ancesa against the administrative decision to ban all of our fans from several areas and zones including in Lens and Arras, as well as against the French Ministry of the Interior's plan to ban flights. We hope to have a resolution as soon as possible but it could take until the early hours on Wednesday morning. 

We are aware of the difficulty in changing the policy of the French administration but we will use all legal and diplomatic means available to use to try to get our fans to the game against Lens.
