Bordeaux were allowed to stay in the top flight after their appeal against relegation to Ligue 2 along with Angers were accepted.[1] Bordeaux had a disastrous campaign, finishing bottom and relegated to the second division. On 14 June, its relegation to the Championnat National (third tier) due to financial issues was confirmed.[2] However, this decision was later overturned by the FFF executive committee.[3]
