Lazio has only 11 subscribers for a stadium of 70,000 spectators

The Italian team lives as grim moment until his own hobby is giving back to new levels.

Despite always live in the shadow of Rome , much more popular in the Italian capital (rather than on the periphery), the Lazio can be considered one of the biggest teams in Italy . Two league titles in its history (which could become three if successful a very curious appeal presented to grant him a century after the title of 1915), abundant Italian Cups, one European title, years giving battle in Serie A and one important social mass (although somewhat linked to right - wing ideologies) are assets that can boast. Or at least he could so far as this last point is disputed by the unfortunate result of the season ticket campaign for the season will start.

The blanquicelestes opened their offices on Tuesday 19 July for partners to renew their identity cards of the season. That same day, at the time of closure of the offices, only 11 followers had done . The figure is unofficial, because shame the club has not made ​​them public; is known by the leak of an employee and confirmed by the silence of the leaders , when asked about it , and with no movement of fans who saw the press in the vicinity of the offices.

Whereas the Lazio play at home in the Olympic Stadium in Rome, with 72,698 seats available , it is safe to indicate that it is an absolute failure. And the main culprit seems to be the president of the organization, Claudio Lotito , who just celebrated his 12 years in office. Although has to his credit with the odd title (particularly highlights the Coppa Italia in 2013, which won in the end neither more nor less than the Roma), the fans are sick of it.

The leader accuse him of not being able to assemble a team up to the club . The main figures, as Candreva or Keita , intend to leave the template and spare parts that sound are not at all exciting; in fact, at this point it has not confirmed the signing of any new player. As little far this preseason, also has experienced a grotesque episode with the frustada hiring of Argentine coach Marcelo Bielsa , who lasted only 48 hours in the place: almost as soon as he signed he left saying that they had not fulfilled some promises he did, including the arrival of at least four players before 5 July. Restore the position to Simone Inzaghi , a man of the house that interim coach and was in other times and on the lawn scored thirty goals for the Eagles , was intended to be sold as "recover the essence", but has rather given feeling botched emergency.

So nefarious considers the fans being the recent management Lotito has not only boycotted the renewal of fertilizers, but has flooded the city with graffiti against him and has even organized demonstrations to ask you to leave and "free Lazio". Last year, the Lazio finished in eighth place with only 54 points, 37 below the champion ( Juventus ) and 28 unless the hated Rome, and far from any option of entering European competitions . If there is a radical change in the coming weeks, the omens for this season are much worse.
