Despite the recent relegation to Ligue 2, AS Saint-Étienne displayed a remarkable popular fervour, with more than 19,000 subscribers registered as at 30 July 2025. This impressive figure reflects the unwavering passion of fans and the hope generated by the arrival of new investors at the head of the club. The subscription campaign, launched in June and extended to all July, quickly exceeded expectations, thanks to a digitalized and accessible offer, including formulas adapted to all ages. This positive dynamic is part of a context of reconstruction, where the club has been able to capitalise on the enthusiasm of the supporters by offering a simplified and attractive subscription experience.

The enthusiasm is not limited to subscriptions: more than 30,000 fans are expected for the season’s opening match against Rodez on Saturday 16 August at 8 p.m. This first home game promises an electric atmosphere in the Chauron, confirming the solid link between ASSE and its audience. This predicted influx highlights the club’s ability to attract large crowds, even in Ligue 2, and demonstrates the loyalty of the “Green People”. The goal of exceeding 20,000 subscribers in the two weeks leading up to the game now seems achievable, which would represent a record for ASSE for several years.

This subscription campaign and the wait for the match against Rodez illustrate the resilience and determination of the Stéphanois supporters. Their support is more crucial than ever to help the club get back to the elite of French football. The atmosphere expected at Geoffroy-Guichard Stadium, with a strong influx and an incandescent atmosphere, will make it a highlight of this new season. For those who have not yet taken advantage of the offer, the subscription campaign remains open on the club’s official website and in store.
