August 5 – Former French champions Bordeaux, who recently went into receivership, have been dealt an even more bitter blow than anticipated after being demoted to the fourth-tier National 2 – one division lower than expected.
Last month the club filed for bankruptcy and dropped their pro team status just days after they were relegated to the third tier of French football and the American owners of Liverpool withdrew from takeover talks.
Bordeaux then announced two days later it would become an amateur club for the first time in almost 90 years.
