Well, yes? Well: the leaders of San Lorenzo have once again induced acephalythis time without legal irregularities, and the days of Marcelo Moretti, who runs the Boedo Club, is exhausted. After a marathon board meeting in which the panorama changed from one moment to the next, finally after 9 p.m. This Tuesday the required number of resignations was reached in the official box of the New Gasometer. And what now? An extraordinary meeting must be convened immediately to set a date for early elections and, in the meantime, to appoint an interim commission..
It was a long day Saint Lawrence in disgrace. It started at 11:00 a.m. and ended late at night with the news slapping President Moretti. Investigations into “unfaithful administration”and what all the fans were waiting for were already fed up with two years of management adding one scandal after another. In fact, a group of supporters had gathered on Perito Moreno Avenue and demanded that “everyone leave.”
Moretti tried to resist until the last moment, clinging to the support of the president of the AFA, Claudio Tapia. In fact, he had previously confirmed to the media that he would not resign and tried to destroy the possibility of acephaly by praying for “political maturity” in an institution that currently has 14 suspensions and a $5 million bankruptcy filing.
“No.”When asked if he planned to resign, he responded eloquently. And he went deeper: “We are analyzing so that San Lorenzo can have the policies it should have. Acephaly is not recommended in these cases. We must be careful and very calm.”.
Moretti spoke around 3 p.m. at the exit of the Buenos Aires City Prosecutor’s Office, after apparently testifying along with eight other Barça leaders for failing to comply with the request board within the deadlines set by the judge when he decided to cancel the meeting September 16th in which acephaly was first prescribed.
Some time ago he was involved in an incident in which the truck transporting him stepped on the left foot of a San Lorenzo fan who was riding a bicycle and began to insult him near the window.
Three hours later, again at the stadium in Bajo Flores, Moretti insisted to his colleagues that he would continue to argue that acephaly could create the conditions for a possible intervention. Everything was stretched too far as they tried to negotiate a license with him in the middle, but no agreement was reached.
In this way they began to count that the resignations would again lead to acephaly, just as it had happened in September. There are seven members of the CD who have not submitted their resignations: Moretti himself and members Néstor Ortigoza (a man very close to Chiqui Tapia), Alejandro Tamer, Alan Navarro, Emiliano Rodríguez, Sergio Costantino and Christian Evangelista.
Now, the President of the Assembly, Daniel MatosTogether with the Vice Ulises Morales and the other five members of the Board, an extraordinary meeting must be called immediately to determine when the early elections will be held (according to the statutes they should take place within a period of at least 90 days) and to appoint an interim commission to manage the club during this period.
The resigned directors of the current management cannot participate in this transition. In addition, any registered member with 10 years of service was eligible to apply for the positions of President and Vice President and 5 years of service for the remaining positions.
