Mourad Boudjellal, his shaky theory on the riots
Football fans are clearly less intelligent than rugby fans. This, in essence, is the explanation put forward by Mourad Boudjellal to decipher last Saturday’s riots.
Following the damage that occurred after the coronation of Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League, Karine Le Marchand posted a video that went viral on social networks. The star host of M6 explains in particular that she “doesn’t want to pay for these cassos”.
In the show “Les grandes bouches”, on RMC, a debate followed this media outing by the presenter of “L’amour est dans le pré”. Among the speakers, Mourad Boudjellal, former president of RC Toulon.
“I think it’s a question of the audience. I put 70,000 people on the streets during rugby. “Not a flower pot was broken.”explained the businessman, referring to the three European Cups won consecutively by RC Toulon, from 2013 to 2015.
Mourad Boudjellal, the risky comparison
Mourad Boudjellal then develops a somewhat surprising theory. “The rules of rugby are more complicated than those of football. It is the equivalent of the difference between chess and checkers, he compares. Part of the football public is low-brow. Afterwards, I think that football serves as a pretext. »
In 2020, Mourad Boudjellal wanted to get into football. He explained hold an offer to buy Olympique de Marseille with funds from the Middle East. The Marseille club then took him to court, accusing him of a campaign of destabilization.
