You say give it but can't take it, although in all things like this I doubt it was the perpetrator that got hit. If some bell end throws a bottle at a player he should be banned, but doesn't give the player the right to throw or kick it back I and likely hit an innocent. If it was me or my family/friends it hit I'd be fuming and give it back too.

Was Payet angry because Marseille were about Toulouse?

Whilst i completely understand your point... it was the ultras end in arguably their biggest derby of the season... it was hardly the family stand at Cov. I don't think many families were involved.

I watched the vast majority of the game live and Payet took multiple corners in the 2nd half (from both sides) and was pelted with bundles of stuff every time... it wasn't a lone "idiot" at work.... i think he can be forgiven for losing his rag on this occasion.

That wasn't a steward, it was a member of the Marseille playing/coaching/bench staff.

Covid is just the straw that broke the camels back. There's plenty more that people are angry about and have been for a long time. People have been showing restraint and biting their lips for a long time and at some point they're going to say enough is enough.

I’m in 2 minds with this. Maybe more.
I agree with it being annoying with fans giving it but not taking it.
If I was Payet or any footballer getting shit I’d be sacked within five minutes giving it back.
But if I was in the crowd and the bottle comes flying back and hits my son for example I’d being raging. But I also wouldn’t be on the pitch looking for a fight.

Whole thing is a shit show

Certainly in France. Le Pen is now neck and neck in the polls with Macron and Macron is sliding

There's so much more going on as well, other than Payet and the bottle throwing... the Marseille player whacking the ball point-blank into the crowd... the Marseille member of staff lamping the Nice fan (although really it was only a heavy shove in the chest/shoulder).

To be fair, the bloke had the temerity to be giving it some whilst wearing a bum bag and was probably therefore fair game.

As @Travs said, Nice fans were at it all game, in fact the Marseille keeper had to clear his goalmouth of bottles that had been raining down at him before kick-off even.
Can understand Payet's frustration but that reaction was never going to end well.

The irony is Nice were on course to win the game but, if there's any justice, will now forfeit it.

Bottles were also thrown at Marseille's players in their away game at Montpellier 2 weeks ago. Are they not liked by other teams?

The polls have barely moved since 2017, when Macron won handily. Same as it ever was. But there's always some people every five years who insist that this time it's definitely different and Le Pen will surely win....

Only just seen the video now. Obviously cannot condone anyone throwing anything from the crowd, it could be extremely dangerous and I do understand how player could react like that, but there are multiple throws back into the crowd from the player/players, so you can see how that fuels things more.

Would have been better for the Marseilles players to just walk off. I do understand the heat of the moment though and you have no idea as a player what might be thrown at you.

I think historically they're the best/most widely supported club in France, PSG are still a relatively new club. It might be a bit of a Man Utd/Juve et al situation where popularity breeds contempt?

Does it go back to the 1990's when they were found guilty of bribery and relegated to the 2nd division?

I think it's more likely that both Nice and Montpellier are local derbies.

Such is the hostility in France that its only recently that away fans have been let back in to derbies. (i'm not entirely sure but the real grudge games such as Lyon v St Etienne, and PSG v Marseille, may still have that restriction)

I'm not sure. I'll ask my sister's daughter who lives in France. She's a lovely person, always willing to help when she can.

She's my nice niece in Nice

Me too. What the hell did they think was gonna happen. Their reaction was pretty awful wasnt it? Think nice will have to play behind closed doors

I was firmly on the side of the players. Who thinks they’ll throw something at the players and it’s ok

Dreamer started it with his nonsense implication that the people have had enough. They have but not in the direction he implies. Politics in Europe continues to lurch to the right to find a solution to the failings of the EU

That lurch to the right to solve the problems of the EU is going well for us isn't it? We've never had it so good!

So MACRON +12 then?

The French race is close in the same way the British race is currently close
