Club Sportif Sedan Ardennes is a French football club, based in Sedan, north-east France. They currently play in Ligue 2, France's second highest division right behind Ligue 1.
[edit] Colours and badge
Sedan's home strip always incorporates a combination of red and green, and this is reflected in the club badge. The badge also incorporates the image of a wild boar, a symbol of the Ardennes region. It is for this reason that Sedan are nicknamed "Les Sangliers" (the wild boars).
The club are currently sponsored by Invicta France: a firm specialising in wood burning stoves, and Caisse d'Epargne: one of France's largest banks. Hummel are Sedan's current kit supplier.
[edit] Supporters
Sedan's fanbase is mainly drawn from the surrounding Ardennes region, and particular animosity is reserved for the derby with nearby club Stade Reims. Although not known for outbreaks of hooliganism, a Sedan home game against Paris Saint Germain in 2007 was widely reported following the arrival of Dutch football hooligans from Utrecht and their ensuing fight with PSG fans. Sedan does have a small hooligan faction known as the "Young Boys", complete with their own designated stadium corner and even their own online giftshop.
