"Rivalry"
Invoking the "rivalry" between the supporters of the two clubs having "resulted in the past and on a recurring basis in serious disturbances to public order", the police chief of Bouches-du-Rhône had taken orders in early February prohibiting supporters Parisians "to access the Stade Vélodrome and to circulate or park" near it "and in the nearby districts" for the two matches of February 8 and 26.
