Marcel Bertrand runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 38. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Ruly keeps Tours in it on his own

Some afternoons a goalkeeper is the team. 6 saves, several of them the sort nobody expects to see stopped, and a scoreline that flatters everybody in front of him.

Jean Meyer asks to leave Tours

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Tempers go at Tours

Ruly was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Jacques Masson stays put

“The easiest signature of my career.” Jacques Masson and Tours agree another 4 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

Emmanuel Joly in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Tours this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

David Masson gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Talks stall between Tours and Ruly

“We are a long way apart, and pretending otherwise helps nobody.” Neither side is close, and the calendar is not on the club's side.
