Merlus Ultras Take Drastic Action
FC Lorient players arrived at their training ground to a disgusting surprise as Merlus ultras dumped a massive 400kg of rotten fish outside the facility. This shocking act comes after the team's recent defeat by rivals Stade Brestois, leaving fans and ultras alike seething with anger.
Struggles on the Pitch
FC Lorient has had a tough season so far, currently sitting 17th in the Ligue 1 table. With nine losses in 17 matches, including a devastating 4-0 defeat by Stade Brestois, the team's performance has been abysmal.
Ultras' Statement
The group responsible for the fish dumping, Merlus Ultras 1995, released a statement criticizing the team's performance and warning of potential further "action." The statement read, "Following the latest disgraceful defeat of our team, action will be taken at Kerlir after the game. 400 kilograms of fish will be poured at the gate with a message that reads 'Truly rotten, like you'."
Manager Slams Players
FC Lorient manager Régis Le Bris reportedly criticized four players, including former Manchester City defender Benjamin Mendy, for a lack of "humility." The other three players mentioned in the critique are Victor Makengo, Isaak Tour é, and Romain Faivre.
