The Case For Them

Lens play their football in the France Ligue 1, and have been at it since 1906. Adopting a club from France means a new calendar, a new commentary language and a league table you'll be checking at odd hours. That's the point.

  • · Pick a matchday and follow one full season
  • · Learn one chant before you buy the shirt
  • · Plan a trip around a home fixture, not the other way round

Matchday Trip

Ground: to be confirmed. Go in a day early, find the pre-match pub, buy the programme.
