Pro D2 : à Agen tout le monde craint une relégation historique

Photo : @agen_rugby

La relégation, le SU Agen connaît. Période 2007-2010, il quitte le Top 14 pour la Pro D2 avant un retour une dizaine d’années plus tard en 2021. Mais jamais encore le club n’était descendu plus bas.

Pourtant, c’est bien la Nationale qui menace à neuf journées de la fin de la saison alors que le club pointe à une dangereuse 15e place.

Pour sa première saison retour en Pro D2 (2021-2022), Agen avait terminé à la 13e place, mais était remonté à la 6e la saison suivante. Depuis, le club n’a jamais réussi à décoller avec une 13e place la saison passée et encore une fois sous la menace de la relégation cette année (13 défaites sur 21 matchs).

« Je ne peux pas envisager une seule seconde qu’Agen descende en Nationale », affirme Jacques Laurans dans les colonnes de La Dépêche du Midi. Retiré des terrains depuis le milieu des années 60 où il a ramené un troisième titre de champion de France pour Agen, « Jacky » a ensuite passé les décennies suivantes dans les arcanes administratives et politiques du rugby mondial : 25 ans au service de la Fédération française de rugby, 20 ans à World Rugby, 20 ans au Tournoi des Six Nations.

« J’ai vu bien des dangers, aussi bien au SUA que dans l’équipe de France. Nous sommes aujourd’hui l’un des trois ou quatre clubs à deux ou trois points qui risquent de jouer cette 15e place. Dans cette position, il est toujours important de s’interroger sur les matchs suivants. Ils vont avoir un intérêt capital », assure-t-il.

Un calendrier corsé jusqu’à la fin de la saison

Le premier choc sera contre Valence-Romans ce 7 mars à Armandie, club lui aussi dans la zone rouge à égalité de points avec Agen. « Le maître mot de la semaine, c’est soutien, soutenir. Il faut sortir le club de cette situation et aller chercher le maintien. Mais il n’y a pas de crise. Il faut juste aller chercher de la constance dans ce qu’on a été capable de faire face à Béziers », martèle le coach Sébastien Calvet en référence au 14-0 infligé à Béziers le 14 février.

« Il faut se serrer les coudes, et travailler fort. Par contre, tout le monde doit être investi à 200 % et coresponsable. Ce n’est pas le staff contre les joueurs, ce ne sont pas les joueurs contre le staff … C’est tous uni pour s’en sortir et j’espère que le public va répondre dans ce sens-là. »

Cette mobilisation pour le maintien « doit l’être jusqu’à la fin de la saison, car il y aura d’autres dangers derrière ce match », insiste Laurans avec un œil sur Nice le 7 mars (déjà un pied en Nationale), Grenoble le 28 mars (déjà un pied en Top 14), Oyonnax le 4 avril, Brive le 11, puis Colomiers, Soyaux-Angoulême, , Dax et Mont-de-Marsan.

Premiership Cup semi-final draw and dates confirmed

It was a cold evening when I realized I had lost everything. My heart pounded in my chest as I stared at my empty crypto wallet. Three hundred thousand dollars’ worth of Bitcoin—gone. I had fallen victim to an elaborate scam, a promise of high returns that had turned into my worst nightmare.I had always been cautious with my investments, but these scammers were professionals. They posed as a legitimate crypto investment firm, complete with a polished website, convincing testimonials, and even fake regulatory approvals. Their scheme was perfect—until it wasn’t. After weeks of trying to recover my funds on my own, filing complaints, and chasing shadows, I almost gave up. That’s when I stumbled upon Galaxy Ethical Tech, a company renowned for its expertise in ethical tech solutions and cryptocurrency fraud recovery. Skeptical yet desperate, I reached out to Galaxy Ethical Tech through their official website. Within hours, I received a response from their lead investigator, Daniel Carter. His calm yet confident tone gave me a renewed sense of hope. We’ve handled cases like yours before,” he assured me. “If the scammers haven’t moved your Bitcoin through an extensive network of tumblers, there’s a good chance we can track it. I handed over all the details—wallet addresses, transaction IDs, emails, and even chat logs with the scammers. Within 48 hours, their team of blockchain analysts got to work.Galaxy Ethical Tech used advanced blockchain forensics to trace the movement of my stolen Bitcoin. Every transaction left a digital footprint, and with their AI-driven tracking tools, they followed the money trail. It turned out that the scammers had transferred my Bitcoin through a series of crypto mixers, attempting to break the chain of traceability. However, Galaxy Ethical Tech had access to specialized de-anonymization algorithms and partnerships with global cybersecurity agencies. One breakthrough came when they identified a suspicious transaction leading to a centralized exchange. Using legal channels and law enforcement partnerships, they froze the scammer’s wallet before they could cash out.After two intense weeks, I received an email from Galaxy Ethical Tech: We’ve recovered your lost Bitcoin. Expect the full amount in your wallet within 24 hours. I couldn’t believe my eyes. I checked my wallet obsessively until, finally, my 300,000 BTC was back.You don’t know what this means to me,” I said, my voice shaking.He chuckled. “Just another day at Galaxy Ethical Tech. Stay safe, and always verify before you trust. Losing my Bitcoin was a nightmare, but it taught me valuable lessons: Never trust unsolicited investment opportunities. Always verify the legitimacy of crypto platforms. Use secure wallets and enable two-factor authentication. If scammed, act fast and contact professionals like Galaxy Ethical Tech.Thanks to their ethical approach and cutting-edge technology, I got a second chance. If you ever find yourself in a crypto scam, don’t lose hope—there are still heroes in the digital world.
