Amiens, 19th in the table and also relegated, and Lyon, who were seventh and missed European football, have already lodged appeals. Toulouse, bottom for many months and with only three wins and 13 points from 28 games, were 14 points from potential safety. Amiens were 10 points better off, but still four points away from the lifeline of a playoff spot. "Amiens are still fighting against this decision which we find unfair, incoherent and unfounded," Amiens president Bernard Joannin told AFP. The Corsican club responded by saying: "We maintain that AC Ajaccio are destined to play in Ligue 1 next season."
