It’s on The TV Team that Pierre Ménès took his first steps on television in 1999. For four years, the sports journalist appeared on Didier Roustan’s show “Finfin du football”. 25 years later, he would absolutely not see himself appearing on what became Channel 21 of TNT, namely The L’Équipe channel.
Even less in “The Evening Team”. “I’m sorry to say, I can’t stand this show. Because there are too many people that I can’t stand on this set and who also like me. (Yoann) Riou, (Grégory) Schneider, (Nabil) Djellit, (Johan) Micoud… It’s impossible for me to find myself there”he certified on his YouTube channel during a question/answer exchange with his subscribers.
Pierre Ménès would not want the “cripples” of L’Équipe du soir
Even the salary of the speakers in this show would be a barrier to their participation. “And then, quite frankly, I think it’s paid a pittance. If I have to take a TGV and a night in a hotel to go and do a show. I’m not going to wear out my health to win 200 or 300 balls. I don’t know how much they get paid, but certainly not much more.”imagine the former sniper of the Channel Football Club.
Now away from television sets, since the broadcast in 2021 of the documentary directed by Marie Portolano, Pierre Ménès has not definitively cut the microphone. On his YouTube channel, the journalist continues to comment on and analyze sports news.
