Referees’ union unhappy with sanction given to LOSC president Olivier Létang

The referees’ union Safe has voiced its dissatisfaction with the sanction handed down to the LOSC Lille president, Olivier Létang. As L’Équipe reports, the decision has not been accepted well by the collective.

The piece stresses that the union’s anger is not for the exact same reasons as the club president’s, but the core message is shared: Safe is not happy with the sanction. L’Équipe adds that the protest comes “for other reasons”, while still targeting the disciplinary outcome.

Institutionally, this kind of public push can raise the heat around refereeing matters in Ligue 1. However, the extract available does not include further specifics such as the length of the ban or the exact charge behind the ruling.
