Francis Piasecki était le numéro 10 de cette inoubliable équipe, un organisateur sachant aisément se muer en buteur et avant tout un homme de caractère. Durant neuf saisons, de 1977 à 1986, Francis Piasecki porta haut l’étendard du Racing Club de Strasbourg. Une période débutée en fanfare, avec la constitution astucieuse par Gilbert Gress d’une équipe mêlant individualités expérimentés et joueurs prometteurs du cru. A cette ossature alsacienne maintes fois fantasmée se sont greffés de véritables cadres du football français des années 1970 : Novi, Vergnes, Jouve. Piasecki n’était toutefois pas à cet instant un joueur « achevé ». Natif de la vallée de la Fensch, c’est naturellement qu’il débute au Football Club de Metz. Après un court passage à Valenciennes, il croit son heure arrivée au FCM mais fait les frais de la fameuse grève des joueurs de la fin 1972, mouvement national dont il fut perçu comme l’un des meneurs en Moselle. Envoyé à Sochaux, où il ne s’épanouira pas, il rejoint la capitale où Daniel Hechter tente de bâtir une équipe capable de remplir le flambant neuf Parc des Princes. Aux côtés de Dahleb et M’Pelé, Francis Piasecki endosse enfin le rôle de meneur de jeu dont il était privé à Sochaux.

  • Ethics and Sport in Europe Drugs, Extremism and Other Forms of Discrimination It Is Currently Facing
    SPORTS POLICY AND PRACTICE SERIES Defending ethics in sport is vital in order to combat the problems of corruption, violence, Ethics and sport in Europe drugs, extremism and other forms of discrimination it is currently facing. Sport refl ects nothing more and nothing less than the societies in which it takes place. However, if sport is to continue to bring benefi ts for individuals and societies, it cannot afford to neglect its ethical values or ignore these scourges. The major role of the Council of Europe and the Enlarged Partial Agreement on Sport (EPAS) in addressing the new challenges to sports ethics was confi rmed by the 11th Council of Europe Conference of Ministers responsible for Sport, held in Athens on 11 and 12 December 2008. A political impetus was given on 16 June 2010 by the Committee of Ministers, with the adoption of an updated version of the Code of Sports Ethics (Recommendation CM/Rec(2010)9), emphasising the requisite co-ordination between governments and sports organisations. The EPAS prepared the ministerial conference and stepped up its work in an international conference organised with the University of Rennes, which was attended by political leaders, athletes, researchers and offi cials from the voluntary sector. The key experiences described in the conference and the thoughts that it prompted are described in this publication. All the writers share the concern that the end result should be practical action – particularly in terms of the setting of standards – that falls within the remit of the EPAS and promotes the Council of Europe’s core values.

Interest in the competition will be maintained in November with the play-offs, which promise to be exciting and open, and could give the final field of participants a very interesting look indeed. After these deciders, the draw for the final round will well and truly put us on tenterhooks in anticipation of the tournament itself and the fever will continue to mount until the opening match kicks off on 12 June 2004. For the supporters of the national teams which have not managed to qualify for next year’s European Championship final round, the draw for the 2006 World Cup qualifying competition at the beginning of December will give them renewed reason to hope and dream.

Portrait de cet ancien bon joueur des années 1990, dont la carrière de technicien a véritablement décollé au Gazélec d’Ajaccio. Avant de plonger dans le vif du sujet, livrons nous à une petite rétrospective quant au passé de joueur professionnel des derniers entraîneurs du Racing. Avec 348 matchs de première division, Thierry Laurey évolue dans les mêmes sphères que Laurent Fournier (376 matchs), mais à distance respectable d’Yvon Pouliquen (423) et René Girard (442) – pour information, Jacky Duguépéroux en a disputé 295, Antoine Kombouaré 300, Claude Le Roy 230 et Jean-Marc Furlan 274. A l’instar de Girard et Fournier, Thierry Laurey fut un milieu défensif durant de longues saisons de D1, et il connut une récompense en étant appelé en Equipe de France. Nous sommes en mars 1989 : Michel Platini vient d’être bombardé à la tête d’une équipe dans le creux de la vague, qui venait toucher le fond à Chypre fin octobre. C’est une période d’essais : comme son partenaire à Sochaux Franck Silvestre, comme ses anciens acolytes montpelliérains Laurent Blanc et Christian Perez, Laurey est appelé à débuter avec les Bleus.

  • Ligue-1-2016 2017.Pdf
    A Note from the Editor: For many, Ligue 1 cannot restart quickly enough following an almost perfect, but fundamentally cruel EURO 2016 for France on home soil. The pain suffered on that night in Paris by Didier Deschamps’s men and an entire nation remains all the more heartrending because of the newfound professionalism that Les Bleus conducted themselves with throughout the tournament. Karim Benzema antics aside, contrary to years of squad infighting, the team spirit inside the French camp was the strongest it had been since 2000. On the pitch, France proved that they are on the cusp of a new golden generation, with Samuel Umtiti, Kingsley Coman and Antoine Griezmann all shining. Although some of Les Bleus’ much touted young guns fell short of expectations, namely Paul Pogba and Anthony Martial, France’s U19 EURO win further confirms that the future is astonishingly bright for French football on the international scene. One would not be foolish to expect there to be some turnover of talent for the 2018 World Cup cycle, with Patrice Evra and others’ involvement coming to an end. Much like Les Bleus therefore, Ligue 1 too can expect a very different feel for the 2016/17 season. PSG have entered a new era after President Al Khelaifi’s obsession for progression in the Champions’ League failed to be adequately satisfied by Laurent Blanc, leading to the latter’s dismissal. Les Parisiens have appointed Unai Emery in Blanc’s place, who brings a new-age management approach that relies on a squad instead of a team of individuals, a charge often leveled at Blanc’s PSG.
