Pro D2: Collazo and Brive already under pressure, they must win the next three matches

It was undoubtedly the big performance of the evening this Wednesday evening for the 5th day of Pro D2. For the clash of extremes, Brive, freshly dropped from Top 14, traveled to Valence-Romans, surprisingly promoted from Nationale. And it must be said that the Corréziens were severely corrected (45-10). “We had our heads broken” declared Patrice Collazo, the manager, after the meeting at the microphone of Canal.

This third away defeat did not pass through the Brivist ranks. Despite some support at home, Brive is only in 8th place after five days. And before attacking the second block, Xavier Ric, the club's sports director, decided to summon Patrice Collazo as well as his staff and players. And set an ultimatum of three imperative victories over the next three meetings.

“We had to talk, we couldn’t let this go. The service is not acceptable, the behavior is not acceptable and we had to take our responsibilities. I understand the anger of the supporters, partners and all lovers of the club. This Wednesday evening, we did not honor the institution, did not respect the club” says Xavier Ric to our colleagues at La Montagne.

Before adding: “A course has been set for the next three matches. And he’s very clear: we have to win them. The three. This is imperative to getting back on the right path. Staff and players have been made to face their responsibilities. There was a lack of humility at Valence-Romans and if some players thought that Pro D2 was going to be easy to negotiate, I hope that they will quickly become aware of the task ahead. Over the next three matches, Brive will host Dax, the other promoted from Nationale before hosting Grenoble and traveling to Rouen.
