Nothing goes for the Sunday evening football show on Canal +, whose audiences are very low, and now light years away from Téléfoot.
« The week of the French in the European Cup », « The 11e Premier League day », « Inside Jules Koundé’s mind “And Etienne Mendy as a guest on the set, the Canal Football Club had an enticing menu on Sunday evening, but viewers are visibly turning away more and more from the encrypted channel’s football meeting. Indeed, the CFC hearing has hit a new low if we stick to the very large audience share. With 435,000 faithful in front of Canal +, Hervé Mathoux did a little better than last Sunday, but the audience of 2% is the worst score for the show since the start of the 2021-2022 season. Obviously, the absence of images from Ligue 1 hurts the Canal Football Club, and it is undeniable, and the comparison with Téléfoot confirms it. Sunday morning, the TF1 football program attracted 872,000 viewers, or 12.7% audience share. A gap that is widening more and more.

In addition to the absence of the images of Ligue 1, the fact that now Canal + is rather the channel of rugby on Sunday evening than that of football also weighs in these mediocre audiences. Obviously, it is impossible to ignore the opinion of those who think that with the departure of Pierre Ménès the Canal Football Club has lost its sense of controversy, the former consultant knew perfectly well how to make the buzz. But by deciding to separate amicably from Pierre Ménès, the encrypted channel made an editorial choice by returning to a smoother program … but which is struggling to find its audience. For now, the CFC therefore remains straight in its boots despite this very complicated situation, until when?
the #CanalFootballClub with @MathouxHerve still weak last night in access on @canalplus: 435,000 viewers 2% of the public. Sunday before, the show had gathered 411,000 viewers and 2.2% of the public. pic.twitter.com/ZWDpSB6sz0

On the social networks side, we are not tender with this 2021-2022 version of the Canal Football Club. ” What is it for now football club channel? To sum up the matches that you saw 5 days ago? No interest », « In my opinion, it is more the absence of images from League 1 matches than the disappearance of Pierre Ménès which is the cause of the audience declines. », « The football club channel without Pierrot is bland like sauerkraut without Riesling “, The comments are without any complacency with what was previously the flagship meeting of French football. What confirms that between Ligue 1 and Canal + nothing goes, the chain of the Bolloré group having even decided to broadcast not on C + Sport but on C + Décalé posters of Ligue 1 including the next PSG-Nice.
