Toulouse FC — around the 1995/96 season (coach: Alain Giresse)

Toulouse FC is a professional football club from Toulouse, France, traditionally wearing violet/purple and white and playing home matches at the Stadium Municipal (Stade du Stadium). In the mid-1990s the club was managed by Alain Giresse (the former French international midfielder), who was head coach in the mid‑1990s — roughly the 1994–1996 period.

• Manager: Alain Giresse — former France midfield great (part of France’s successful 1980s teams), who brought a technically oriented, possession-based approach to his teams.
• Club identity: Violet (purple) kit, home Stadium Municipal in Toulouse.
• Competitive context: In the mid‑1990s Toulouse were competing in the French domestic leagues and cups; the 1990s were a period of sporting fluctuation for the club, with promotion/relegation battles and frequent roster turnover.
• Playing style: Under Giresse the emphasis was on technical midfield play and ball circulation, reflecting his own background as a creative midfielder.
