If they win, they will be the first French club ever to win the cup in 4 consecutive seasons. At the weekend they beat their closest rivals, Monaco, 7-1, to win the French League for the 5th time out of 6. Earlier this season they won the French League Cup for the 5th consecutive season. I'm am so happy that got beat by Real in the Champions League. Football has always had some rich clubs, but the gulf now is rediculous. | | | | |

Yes, they have. A surprising number of Ligue 2 or lower clubs often make the semis and sometimes finals of the French cups. In reality though, there are not that many well supported clubs, unlike England. For example, this years average attendances to date show this: Ligue 1 - 3 clubs above 40,000 average - 1 club between 30,000 and 40,000 - 6 clubs between 20,000 and 30,000 - 8 clubs between 10,000 and 20,000 average Ligue 2 - 1 club above 20,000 average (23k) - 1 club between 10,000 and 20,000 average (11k) | | | |
