Lille Do The Double!

[Kyras]

Lille OSC have just drawn 2-2 at the Parc Des Princes to confirm their Ligue 1 title, having beaten PSG in the Coupe De France final as well.

Amazing achievement on a shoe-string budget in a small stadium (They're building a 50,000 seater for 2012.)

Allez les Dogues. It's their first league title since 1954.

Well done to Lille. However 50,000 seats is big for a french team. Do they have that big a fanbase?

Something to aspire to.

"Yes we can."

Excellent achiement for a club up against L'OM and, particularly, money ladden Paris St. Germain and Lyon (hope their goalie, Hugo Lloris, now get fed up and calls Harry he want EPL footy :wink.

The attacking trio of Hazard, Moussa Sow and Gervinho is the main reason for their success.
