GBFC - Girondins de Bordeaux Football club
My team where I live.
In 2009 I watched them win the league and get to the Champions league semi final
been pretty s**t since, but its been somewhere to take shoddy jnr.
They were sold to an american pension fund a few years ago.
They took the money out last year, club got relagated to 2nd tier at the end of last season.
Had a financial fair play hearing this week, got told they had to play in 3rd tier.
Club said that it wasnt financially viable, so they now have to start again in the 5th tier (amateur football) = basically playing on municpal parks.
Death of a club
be careful what you wish for
