At a press conference before the match against Dunkirk in Ligue 2 this Tuesday, Vital Nsimba, at the threat of the Ultramarines’ applause strike, asked supporters to choose whether they want the club to remain in Ligue 2 or to move down. in national 1.
“We need them. They are disappointed, that’s logical. U.S. too. I understand their frustration, we are the first to be frustrated. We know that we are not having a good season,” he replied.
Vital Nsimba still remains in a phase of reflection with the Bordeaux supporters whose happy days in the French top level remain only in history. “But you have to know what they want: for the club to go down or to stay up? If they want the club to go down, they have to continue not supporting us. If they want the club to continue, they must support us. Doing the opposite is not going to help the team. We are five days from the end. They have already given us reminders to order during the season but I don’t think this is the time to increase the sauce.
For their part, Girondins de Bordeaux supporters were quick to open hostilities on social networks against Vital Nsimba. Several voices were raised in condemnation against the defender deemed disrespectful to the supporters. “Vital Nsimba’s words are disgusting… Let him get out of the club,” declared Web Girondins.
Vital Nsimba was quick to backpedal after the rise of tensions among Girondins de Bordeaux supporters. In a statement on Instagram, “the left-back indicates having answered a question from a journalist without calling into question the commitment of the supporters”. He indicates that the team as always needs its supporters, today even more in order to overcome this great difficulty together. “The extract from this press conference, taken out of context, must be listened to in its entirety”he writes.
