Bordeaux, Royal Excel Mouscron, and Boavista. What happened though?
What's involved in registering for the new season? It's not a
complicated process is it?
It is if you have to provide financial statements and
supply proof that yourCOve paid the taxman, but you
didnrCOt because yourCyre up to your neck in debt and all
your owner does is making empty promises he never
delivers on.
One year on, and the biggest club on G|-rard L||pezrCOs
hit list is on the verge of being liquidated altogether.
Girondins Bordeaux, six-time French champion, UEFA
Cup finalist 1996, the club of players like Giresse,
Tigana, Dugarry, Zidane, or Lizarazu, have been
excluded by French footballrCOs financial governing body
from all nationwide leagues due to millions of debt
owed.
The highest they can now play is in the sixth division,
but there is also talk of complete bankruptcy and
dissolution.
