Turris massacre: the sad statement

Turris has been talked about a lot lately. Firstly because of the difficulties in continuing the season, with the risk of exclusion which was real and then averted in the hours immediately preceding the deadline.

The footballers' strike

Then we talked about the Turris for the strike of footballers who turned to the Italian Footballers' Association to have their rights recognized. The footballers seem to have had several reimbursements reduced and for this reason they skipped a training session in protest. The lack of full payment has clearly generated discontent among the footballers.

The press release

Now comes a communique of Colantonio who, after having helped the club, clearly explains that he will no longer intervene to help the club.

«From now on, I would like not to be contacted again by any Turris representative. At all levels. Honestly, I say enough. It's a closed issue. Together with my family I have shown too much willingness to collaborate and to sit at institutional tables together with Capriola and Giardino."

He then continues: “At the last meeting, it is true that we had mainly talked about our company’s willingness to provide liquidity to Turris to face the imminent deadlines through an operation that was then finalized last Monday, but the current ownership had also revealed a certain operational difficulty in continuing the season. Hence our willingness to lend a hand in this respect too by making available the experience of director Primicile, who was already at the stadium on the same frenetic day of Monday to offer active collaboration. From there, could other discussions on future balances have developed? Perhaps, but in the meantime, thinking first about saving Turris also on the field, otherwise what are we talking about. Having said that, there was no way to start this type of discussion.”

Finally, the press release concludes as follows: If the collaboration is not welcome or if the current management believes it has the strength and skills to go forward alone, we take note of it. After all, important technical decisions taken in complete autonomy by the Capriola management are of the utmost importance. I renew my heartfelt thanks to him and especially to Turris, who still arouses a strong emotional connection in me. I am bitter, but I have to stop here”.
