Maintained in the Women’s Division 2 after the truncated season, the ASSE still disagrees with the FFF decision. It therefore contacted the CNOSF again, after being dismissed for the first time.
Back in front of the CNOSF
Second in Group B last season, ASSE was on track to validate its ascent to Division 1, but the team was hampered by the Covid-19 crisis. The season having been stopped, the FFF promoted the provisional leader of group B, namely Le Havre AC. As a result, AS Saint-Étienne was relegated to D2, while the Vertes were runners-up and had the opportunity to take first place. Indeed, their match of the 16th day against Yzeure had been postponed because of bad weather. Consequently, the ASSE requires its admission to the first division like the Havre AC, whose accession has been validated by the Federal Commission for Senior Practices (female section) and confirmed by the FFF Higher Appeal Commission. “This Thursday, AS Saint-Étienne again appealed to the CNOSF, to contest the homologation of the classification of group B of Division 2 women which deprives the club of an accession among the elite “, Communicated the Loire club.
ASSE “more than ever determined to assert its rights”
ASSE considers that the postponement of its match at Yzeure is completely arbitrary. She considers that without the decree of the mayor of Yzeure, imposing the closure of the stadium, her female team could have obtained her accession to Division 1. Pending the decision of the CNOSF (French National Olympic and Sports Committee), AS Saint – Etienne says to himself “More determined than ever to assert her rights ” Note that Stéphanois had seized the CNOSF in April. And after a conciliation meeting on May 6, the Committee released its verdict on May 15, supporting the federal decision made on April 16.
