The PSG Ultras Sends a Strong Message to the Parisian Hierarchy.

PSG Ultras have delivered a scathing statement to the club’s administration, citing a slew of reasons why the club is failing and stating that they “no longer recognize their club.”

The Collectif Ultras Paris, or CUP for short, has a number of grievances, including the belief that the club is ‘obsessed with selling shirts to the point of ignoring its origins.’

After recently hoisting a banner proclaiming ‘our tolerance has limits,’ the CUP expressed their intense anger with the club’s management in a lengthy statement on their social media sites.

‘For too long now, the club has offered us something that we can no longer support,’ the statement stated on Twitter.

The club is focused with becoming a global brand and selling shirts to the point where it has forgotten its history and insulted the Parc fans by wearing an away kit at home.

‘This is a team that has such lofty ambitions that the season feels like it begins in February, but it despises domestic trophies. We don’t recognize our club, which appears to have lost its DNA,’ says one member.

The statement continues the criticism, characterizing the club’s management as ‘incomprehensible at all levels.’

‘Continual changing of coaches while a programme with continuous recruitment is never put in place, unused players for whom football no longer appears to be a true focus, confusing handling of young players, and a blatant lack of respect for the women’s squad,’ according to the CUP.

The CUP also refers to recent off-field controversy as “episodes more fit for a soap than a professional football club.”

Despite the CUP’s protests, PSG are 13 points clear at the top of Ligue 1 after their recent 5-1 thrashing of current champions Lille. Pochettino’s team has only lost one of their 23 league games so far this season, putting them on course to win their 10th league title.

With this achievement, they will join Saint-Étienne as the two French clubs with the most Ligue 1 titles (10 apiece).
