Hey there pals. I remember telling you some 8 months ago RDZ was prospected last summer to be the coach of Olympique de Marseille. While I wasn't really laughed out loud, you guys were really standing your ground. RDZ wasn't even considering coming to Marseille as he was enjoying Brighton. I...

A 3 or 6 months probatory jail would have been possible and in lines of what he would have get if he were a French citizen. On the other hand French justice system is pretty much saturated (especially in Marseille with the recent bursts of drug affairs) and tend to punish more violence in...

Unless the Frech law has changed, the maximum football ban you can be sentenced is three years in France. So no, the sentence is not extremely lenient. He could have been sentenced to jail or probatory jail but that would have been on the harsh side.

Well ... I'm glad you guys won the return leg. Not so glad you won against us on the 6th round of the group stages... but at that moment you were better than us, without any possible saying. Some of you people get it, some of you just scrap by. European matches are different from League ones...

@Ike and Tina Burner : I think I recognize the place. Boulveard d'Athènes. Some of you asked what shouldn't be done in Marseille. Well I think you pretty much got the answer. Winning tomorrow by itself shouldn't get you in trouble. Now I'm personnaly fuc*ing tired of this crap. And it's been...

@Wallace : a ovo postaje prilicno zanimljivo... L91 runs in 25-30 mins from airport to St-Charles, and is easily the best value to get there. 10€ one way (discounts for groups or return tickets) , quai 6, running every 15 minutes and you can't possibly miss it. Like I stated earlier there...

I somehow have the feeling it's not over yet...

@Dirty Dave .... err ... humm ... errr ... def Marseille. While Nice isn't that ugly it's overrated imho. what kind of experience are you looking for ?

@Bansko Seagull : Avenue de Montolivet is a bit off center area, residential and a bit boring. If on very tight budget, best would be to go to St-Charles Station ; take a metro to Chartreux and walk from there. It's a bit hilly around there and slopes might be steep depending on where you...

@FloatLeft : this certainly isn't an easy walk and really isn't a walk at all. Expect interchanges motorways all along the 3 kms. There's a free shuttle. Which theoretically should ask you for your train tickets before letting you in. Now we talk of Marseille and the theoretical things are just...

@Jimmy Come Lately : the tram area is a business district... so mainly ok. The subway area is really not ok. Take a taxi (+33 4 91 02 20 20 is reliable) or an Uber by night. Shall still be ok by daytime unless you somehow happened to rent something in the infamous Cite Felix Pyat. In this...

Hey guys !! Sorry I've been a bit AFK - vacations. Sorry also for the AEK match... We are undergoing a major crisis. But that's Marseille, happens roughly every three years. In present circumstances, a draw in Amsterdam is a good result for us. The match against you might already be...

Hi there again ! I lost myself in some shaddy places during the week-end (though I have to admit we people here have pretty long weekends). Away zone is A & B. Close to Virage Nord. Of course it pays to be aware of you environment, one never knows ... though it should be a peacful game...

@jackalbion : Def car only. You might be disappointed be the level of third French division, it's not close to League One. You could go to Martigues easily by bus, but you will be stuck on your way back. If you don't mind an adventure you could still manage to creep in a car on your way back, or...

For early flights on friday evening, it all depends on how early really. You have shuttles from St Charles station to the airport (price : 10€) leaving everyday at 3:30 ; 4:10 then every twenty minutes. Metro starts around 5am; A taxi with a night fare would be around 70€ and an uber would be...

It's pretty easy to find Ryanair flights on 4th october through Eindhoven for 75€. : or easy Jet - Ryanair combos for ~50€ on the same day. As an alt, there are also LGW -> MRS through Bordeaux (departure at 08:25 ; arrival at 16:35 ; yes close call) for 48€. - On 3rd evening you can get direct...

@Titanic : you probably shouldn't drive to the stadium. We don't, the traffic jams can be a nightmare. The stadium is very easily accessed by metro. On matches days there are more metros just let the crowd get in and out. Parking your car at your hotel or near a less crowded metro station the...

@Krafty We feel like the team is not playing as a team for the moment. With a new trainer, a new tactial scheme (442 while we used to play 4312) and a lot of new players it might take time. On the other hand a lot of our fans find the play of De Zerbi very interesting and there were some rumours...

@Nobby Cybergoat : yes pretty much. If you see things get creepy just move to a different area. You know this is France, Police is not fast to react... About Montpellier airport : its connection to the city is ok. You have to know that Montpellier has now two stations : - Montpellier St Roch...

@Jack albion : as a solo traveller or as a small group, without wearing colours you'll be unnoticeable and as safe as anybody. Wearing colours is more of a gamble. Marseille sadly has a lot of bad areas (the north part of the city is usually empoverished ; though there are some nice and...
