51st minute of play this Thursday evening between Agen and Nevers, clash of Pro D2 with a view to qualifying for the final stages. 50 minutes and 4 seconds, precisely according to the count displayed on Canal + Sport. Suddenly, complete darkness in the Armandie stadium, while the locals are behind (10-14). A general power outage caused the interruption of the meeting. Impossible to continue under these conditions: all the actors therefore stop playing.

And the power cut would be voluntary. This was the track favored by Gauvain Peleau, journalist for Sud-Ouest, and Jean-François Fonteneau, president of SU Agen, at the microphone of Canal + Sport: “I had received an SMS very early in the morning from a journalist who spoke of a cut that could be orchestrated by the CGT. This is the worst time for us. It’s completely irresponsible in a full stadium. I find that sad.”

Interruption after 49 minutes with reference to 49.3?

Interrupted at 10:24 p.m., the match finally resumed before 11 p.m. The organizers, according to the rules of the competitions, had a deadline of 30 minutes to turn on the light again and ensure the safety of the spectators, otherwise the match had to be definitively stopped. The light returned at around 10:50 p.m. and the game was able to resume. “We will of course file a complaint, continued Fonteneau in a second intervention at the microphone of Canal +. I don’t think that’s the way to get the messages across. The cut would have been made in a dozen places.

On social networks, the FNME CGT Aquitaine explained that the CGT Energies 47 claimed the power cut. An action already carried out in 2019 by these same actors during rugby matches in Castres and Agen. The idea was to interrupt the meeting at 49 minutes and 30 seconds, in reference to the 49.3 used by the government in the context of the adoption of the law on pension reform.
