Nobody could get near Jared Khasa
Successful dribbles: 45. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Door shut on Telli Siwe
Nimes asked and AJ Auxerre said no without discussing a figure. It is the least ambiguous answer in football and the one clubs most often come back to test.

Guglielmo Mignani turns down Nimes
The clubs had agreed and the player had not. A snub, and a public one: Benevento keep him, and the supporters here are left wondering what he had heard about the place.

Pablo Martinez 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 Nimes this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

An offer of $62.0K for Sékou Doucouré
Nimes have gone to FC Nantes with a bid, and the supporters have gone to the internet with an opinion about it. Whether either changes anything is up to the selling club.

Words at Nimes training over how hard people work
Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Rominigue Kouamé is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Bourg-Peronnas take the points off Nimes
Beaten 0‑2, and beaten fairly. The manager kept his words short afterwards, which was probably wise.

One of our own: Paul Mathieu joins the Nimes first team
Clubs spend fortunes looking for players and occasionally find one down the corridor. Paul Mathieu is that, and the reception he gets on his first appearance will be different in kind from the one any signing receives.

One of our own: Jean Faure joins the Nimes first team
Clubs spend fortunes looking for players and occasionally find one down the corridor. Jean Faure is that, and the reception he gets on his first appearance will be different in kind from the one any signing receives.
