OFFICIAL STATEMENT: FANS WILL BE GRANTED ENTRY TO THE STADE BOLLAERT-DELELIS

We would like to communicate that the Conseil d'État, French Council of State, along with the Association Nationale des Supporters, French National Supporters' Association, has accepted our appeal against the banning of our fans from tonight's Champions League match against Lens. Therefore, those with tickets will be granted entry to the Stade Bollaert-Delelis this evening.

We are delighted that fans will be able to attend this evening’s match in Lens but regret the inconvenience caused for many supporters who, given the uncertainty and punishment threatened by the French Government, have decided against travelling and attending the match despite having tickets. The club will provide as much assistance as possible to those supporters who have been affected and will lodge a formal complaint to UEFA.
