"It's very serious," Galtier supports his former colleague Casanova targeted by death threats

They will not have the opportunity to cross on the edge of the field Saturday for the good and simple reason that Alain Casanova no longer officiates on the bench of Violets. But Christophe Galtier, the coach of
Losc, who played for three years in Toulouse (1990-1993), held Friday to express his full support for his former counterpart, who "decided to stop for death threats."

The northern coach seems especially appalled by the lack of reaction of the football community to this case.

" What are we waiting for ? One day, a bunch of morons attack you? "

"It's very serious and it went like a letter to the post office, it lasted less than 24 hours. But it can not pass like a letter to the post office, "laments Christophe Galtier. "We must support him and we must all avoid that it is renewed, continues the technician. What are we waiting for ? May one day a barjot, an idiot, a band of idiots attack you in the street, attack your wife, your children, your grandchildren? Not what? Of our profession, of our results? "

The TFC and Alain Casanova decided on October 10 to separate "by mutual agreement", according to the club press release. According to a source close to Tefece, the coach, already weakened by results at half mast, had been affected by comments that went "too far" but whose content was not revealed.

According to the Toulouse public prosecutor's office, an investigation revealed "threats and invectives related to the club's ranking, particularly at the fan sites".

Saturday at the Stadium, Christophe Galtier will face a team led by Antoine Kombouare, appointed instead of Alain Casanova.
