Now that international break is over and we are back to club business, @magic island
🚨 OFFICIAL!
The SON OF A BITCH Renaud Ripart is back at La Mosson this Saturday with Troyes!
The Nîmes academy player, "legend", that has spent his entire career (10+ years in Nîmes) before moving to Troyes in 2021, is the reason why the last derby between Montpellier & Nîmes at Stade de la Mosson ended in a 0-1 win for Nîmes (only time Nîmes have ever won at La Mosson).
After he scored at the 84th minute, he went over to the Armatas (ultras stand) and started provoking, dancing and "humping" the Montpellier banners. The match was behind closed doors because of Covid...
For information, Montpellier, that season, finished 8th in Ligue 1, 4 points from Conference League, while Nîmes finished 19th, 5 points from Nantes (relegation playoffs) and were relegated to Ligue 2.
A season later, they were relegated to National (third division), and 2 seasons later relegated to National 2 (fourth division), where they currently sit (in 1st place though).
Anyway, "welcome back" Renaud Ripart and I hope that he, this time, faces defeat against MHSC.

If you're completely new to football and you live in the US then maybe you don't know how european football divisions work? Cus it's different from MLS which is a closed league
blazing mountain
Im completely new to all of it. I don't even know how US works 😭
open owl
Ooo okok I'll explain it to you
So in Europe it's not at all like the MLS or NBA.
For example, if you have money right now and want to open a football club for your city and make it play in big competitions, in the USA you physically cannot do that no matter how much you invest in the team. This is because the leagues in the USA are closed, they're "invite only".
Teams that finish last place are still there next season, meaning there is no such thing as "promotion" or "demotion". You're invited to the league and then you play in it
That's in the USA
In Europe (and everywhere else), it's completely different. Every season, every team plays in its division. At the end of the season, the best teams from the division climb to the next division, and the worst teams get relegated (demoted) to the lower division
Which means that as long as you have sufficient money (for legal purposes, to pay salaries etc.), as long as you're good at football, you can theoretically make any football club in any city play in the top divisions
open owl
In Europe (and everywhere else), it's completely different. Every season, every ...
If the team is already in the top division (also called "the elite"), and it finishes in the top places, of course there's no "promotion" because there is no division higher than the ones they are in,
So in return they get to represent their country in European competitions, this is what's called the "champions league" (abbreviated as UCL), "europa league" (UEL) and "conference league" (UECL).
The UCL is the most prestigious trophy any club can win ever. Very little clubs have won it, PSG for example (who a lot of people believe are absolute monsters) have won the UCL for the first time in their history last year. Man City only have 1. Arsenal have never won it.

The champions league and the regular league (division) are tournaments that happen parallel to each other during the same season. Usually champions league matches happen on weekdays and regular (domestic) league matches happen on weekends

blazing mountain
Idk any in my area
open owl
And who should I support?
Don't feel a sudden need to "pick" a club urgently, but whoever you decide to support depends on your views:
- Option 1: If you want to support a (currently) very dominant team that other clubs fear, that essentially has unlimited money, constantly wins its local top division & constantly competes for the European trophies, then you can choose any of: PSG, Real Madrid (in Spain), Bayern Munich (Germany)...
I personally don't recommend you pick this option because many people might call you a glory hunter and it's just overall a bland choice, not really much excitement if you go into every game considered the absolute favorites.
-
Option 2: If you want to support a very popular club with huge fanbases, that normally have enough backing and investment to compete for trophies and constantly fill out their stadiums with amazing support, but just are always overshadowed by the clubs I listed in option 1, then you can pick: Marseille, Lens, Lyon, Saint-Etienne... (France), there are some equivalents all over Europe as well but I'll stick with French football for now
-
Option 3: If you're more open to family oriented clubs, with real history, a "family" fanbase but that have never really feared of sitting down on the same table as the giants, then you can come support Montpellier and me and @magic island will gladly talk to you about the club's beautiful history and exciting future coming
We do not guarantee the same level of pain depending on the team you support
You may experience more pain if you choose Montpellier than if you choose PSG let's be honest

my friend blue is writing what seems like an essay for you, he is much more knowledgeable about the club than me
blazing mountain
Im going to read all of it
open owl
I would like to hear about Montpellier. Im very curious now
Ok here's the story of Montpellier:
So the year is set: 1974 (remember the year, it's important for the story).
A popular businessman in the city of Lyon owns a garbage disposal company. To expand his garbage disposal company, he sends his young son, 30 years old, called Louis Nicollin, nicknamed Loulou (💫 also remember this name, it's very important) to a city called Montpellier in the South of France, on the beach.
Loulou opened up the Montpellier branch of the garbage disposal company and started running the business. Now you're asking me why I'm talking to you about garbage in a football club's history? Well...
Loulou had a passion for football. So he organized little football tournaments with his garbage men and competed in small fun leagues with other companies. The garbage men were actually winning a lot and it was decided that, since the already-existing club of Montpellier was bad, Loulou will buy the Montpellier club and send the best players from the garbage company to the Montpellier team.
And this is how Montpellier was born. Literally from garbage collection.
Now why is this story so special? It's because until this day and as I write this, the club is STILL 100% owned by the son of Loulou, called Laurent Nicollin, and the garbage disposal company.
During most of the club's life, they remained in the top division. Remember I told you it's not as easy as in the USA because you have to fight every season to not be part of the worst teams in the division, and Montpellier was able to do that for so long.
Now you might say okay they stuck to their roots, but what made us so special is that not only did we stick to our roots, but we literally won the entire championship (French league) in 2012 against PSG, who was, that year, bought out by a multi billionaire who spent hundreds of millions of $$$, meanwhile Montpellier had spent only 1 million. The story about the 2012 season is a whole another book to recite, but just know that Montpellier even with its little means was able to not only compete but fully win the title. A feat that very little clubs can say they have done.
Unfortunately, we're now in the sad part of the story: Covid happened. French clubs stopped earning money, and all of our money that depended on television suddenly dropped so much. Remember we are still a garbage disposal company football club until this day so unlike other clubs we did not have any way of getting more money like the larger clubs, so we unfortunately had a horrible season last season in which we ended in last place.
Last place... meaning we are now sitting in the second division today. We're atm in the 7th place spot out of 18 teams
blazing mountain
I've never been so interested in a sport before
open owl
Ok here's the story of Montpellier:
So the year is set: 1974 (remember the year...
Now why did I tell you to remember 1974 and the name Loulou? Because, in every single match that we play, for the last 10 years:
- At the 74th minute, EVERYONE stands up and claps for the entire minute, remembering Loulou (the creator of the club), who, in 1974 created the club, and died at the age of 74, on his birthday... 💔🙏

Hahah dw I'll explain
So Top 5 is the "entry" to the promotion playoffs
So in the picture above, it's the club called "Reims":
For each line you have a club, as you noticed Montpellier in #7
Reims is in #5
There are 3 numbers next to every club if you noticed
The 3 numbers (as it says above is):
- Number of matches played
- Goal difference (positive or negative)
- Points
The points is what determines the position
So points is most important
blazing mountain
Their four points
open owl
Yeah
The goal difference is only used, as the name says, to differentiate between teams that have the same number of points

Their four points
So there's 4 points difference between us and 5th place, which, again, only is the entry level to the playoffs.
If we finish 5th, we will have to beat the 4th place team, and then the 3rd place team from our 2nd division, and THEN we will be able to face the 16th team from the top division, and if we beat them we will enter the top division
Needless to say it's gonna be VERY VERY hard to promote this season
blazing mountain
Yeah especially this close to the end
open owl
Yeah especially this close to the end
Well we have 6 games left
And we need to close the gap between us and the 5th spot team
And then the playoffs will start
magic island
Nah we'll win
love your confidence 😭 just wait until you watch us play
open owl
😂😂
open owl
And we need to close the gap between us and the 5th spot team
The gap is 4 points, and every win gets us 3 points, but let's not forget that the teams above us and below us also are winning matches so the gap is not always easy to close
Because if we get 3 points and the team above us also gets 3 points then the gap remains the same
Btw @magic island I listened to Laporte interview yesterday
He said our only objective is to go to the final matchday 3 points away from Red Star that way if we beat them we take their spot
open owl
So in the picture above, it's the club called "Reims":
Red Star is #4, 5 points away from us

Ok to recap very easily
A club plays a match. If they win, they get 3 points. If they draw, they get 1 point
They play every week
They play every single team twice, once in their stadium, and once in the other team's stadium
That's what's called a home match and an away match

Yes because, also that's a huge argument, in "little clubs" like Montpellier (and many other little clubs), the ticket prices are so cheap
My entire season (17 home matches) is at 95€ which is basically $105
magic island
most PSG fans don't have the money to go to every match
magic island
because the tickets cost more than our season tickets

All in Sofascore

And if you're wondering how did I figure this out?
You press on "Matches"
And then you can see on the right our past matches, so D is a draw, W is a win, L is a loss
And you can look at the calendar
You click on the match (so the left circle)
Here you have details about the match (in ur local timezone)
And you can click on standings you'll see that our opponents are 1st and we are 7th
And then you can start doing the math
blazing mountain
Ooo ok
open owl
So if we win, we get 3 points
magic island
MHSC helped me become top of my class in maths
open owl
Theoretically if the #6 team, Rodez, loses, so they get 0 points (and they stay at 44 points), and we get 3 points, so we become 42+3 = 45 points, we will take their spot

Zoumana Camara about the club being sold:
*"Surprised? No. Today it is the evolution of a club. Laurent Nicollin is an owner, there are financial needs, there is an economic reality so he opens the door to potential investors, which I find normal. He is the president, he is the boss, it is his club and he has this right. I remain in the purely sporting setting where I only have my say. But this is an evolution that I find logical.
I hope it won't disturb the serenity of the team, in any case, and I don't think it will. We have six games left, we must know how to be focused and put energy on the things we can control. Whether we like it or not, we have nothing to influence this sale, except to have good results and beautify the club (smile). Apart from that, we will do nothing in the negotiations, and focus on the sport, quite simply."*

Yes. Our objective is to be 3 points away from Red Star before we face them in the last match of the season.

Right now we are 6 points away, but they played today and we play tomorrow, so if we win tomorrow, we will actually be 3 points away from them
