Sanction of Wilfrid Rastoll: Bruno Irlès disputes the facts and announces the Girondins’ appeal
According to the referee’s report revealed by Footamateur after the match against Asmur, Wilfrid Rastoll declared to the man in black while being kicked off the sidelines during the 8th round of the Coupe de France: “You’re shit, you’re worthless, you’re a wimp, faggot, come on, I’m waiting for you! “
This evening, after the elimination against Le Puy, in a match where the refereeing was controversial (read here), Bruno Irlès returned to this incident and denied the comments made by his deputy.
“The club will appeal as we did in the first decision and explain itself”
Bruno Irlès after the elimination against Le Puy on Radio Forever: “We talk a lot about my deputy (Wilfrid Rastoll), who recently took the first 9 less firm suspension decisions (plus a three-month suspended sentence). I am next to the deputy during the events (facing Asmur). I listen, I know and I have honesty. I would not allow myself to make a sworn statement with untruthful remarks. I can understand that the referee doesn’t hear everything… That’s a lot. The club will appeal as we did in the first decision and explain itself. It’s like tonight (facing Puy).”
He returns to the comments recounted in the referee’s report:
“Wilfried would have made homophobic remarks to the threatening person. I would be the first to tell him that it is inconceivable and that nine months is too kind. However, it is false (the reported comments). I want to say it, the club is behind me in appealing this decision.”
