channel4.com - French Football The Stade Chaban-Delmas, or the Parc Lescure, as it used to be known, has evolved from a Parc des Sports next to a vineyard, into a stadium worthy of staging World Cup finals matches in 1998. When the 1998 World Cup came to France, the Lescure was improved to the tune of £5m, but it was not without its critics – the moderations meant that all the terracing was replaced with seats – an unpopular move with the supporters. Today, the stadium seats 36,500, and was renamed in 2001 after a local mayor and Bordeaux fan who died in 1998. www.channel4.com /sport/french_football/features/cgbordeaux.html   (1173 words)

Guardian | Dark horses Fiji add steel Now many French are thinking the unthinkable - that their side could lose to Fiji in Toulouse on Saturday and then, instead of claiming an automatic quarter-final place, face a difficult play-off against England at Twickenham on October 20.
