Claudio Lotito

I am trying to avoid getting caught in this discussion, because this topic makes me feel sick. Just the fact that we are discussing a PRESIDENT running a club in a way that most fans dislike. Enough said really, a PRESIDENT working against the fans, the team, the history and even the managers in the club. Amazing.

Still some people have the opinion that he is good for LAzio, and that we should stop blaming him for things that go wrong. We have many problems today, but i am sure most of them would be solved if we could get rid of the biggest problem around...I never understood (apart from the first few months when he took over, where he fooled all of us to believe in him...) how people can support la Lazio, and think he is a good president...

lotito is a cancer.The best thing anyone could do for Lazio would be to remove it.

But how does one go about removing it???.......

1. There has to be a strong opinion against him.
2. He can´t survive in Serie B ... he can barely survive in Serie A.

= see you all in Serie B :)

Its surprising and perhaps a little worrying that the opinion isnt strong enough.

It just gets worse and worse.

Well I am tired of discussing Lotito's moves everytime too...

Why don't you guys focus more on posting and discussing the games, Lotito is here and a post on the forum won't make a difference, he was the only one who jumped in when we were going to Serie C2 !!!

Now mistakes yes, annoying attitude yes ! But I truly do not care !! I can still watch Lazio play week in week out, and to add sweetening to it, I get to watch Lazio in midweek !!!

Thats all I ask for, having Lazio as part of my life and Lotito for now gave me that !

He might leave tomorrow, and another would come, as long as Lazio is there, I wouldn't care....

We do,as you can see this topic is only for lotito.No matter what topic he always seems to pop up.Like I said before the man is a virus( )which is spreading too far.

All in all its a sorry situation.

Meyo, no offense but since you are happy with lotito and you don't like discussing about lotito and you do not wish to contribute to this thread ... do not open this thread, that's a very easy solution

Not everyone is happy (like you are) when he's prospected a future of mediocrity for Lazio.

I understand your thoughts, but to turn it around: a post about a game won't make any difference either. Either we loose, tie or win. But yet we discuss everything because we care.

But right now we loose, IMO, more important things outside the pitch. Things that took 104 years to build. I do agree with you that it might be a little to much talk about Lotito, but I think those who share my opinion agrees that we all do it because we're worried for La Lazio and not because we don't care about the matches or want a rich owner that can buy us trophies.

I also want to enjoy Lazio every weekend and even midweeks. But right now the games just feels like a wonderful escape, because we have huge problems outside the pitch.

Since Lotito is trap and his crapiness is affecting our lives, we must discuss him, like it or not.

last year sometimes cragnotti spokes (in the stile i m stil alive),he was in the stadium(for lazio-inter game)...
i m interesting did he show any interest about coming back,any chance.
all of us are tired of lottito ego image,he s wrong decision etc...

mediocrity? people in rome like to repeat that word as a mantra.
what kind of mediocrity?
just like the one in beijing?
mediocrity.
proabably during the 80's lazio was a poor club.

lotito one day will leave and he'll remebered as a winner.
i would define him a calvinist.
just in case i'am waiting for a new president, someone rich enough to be considered as a big spender.

So we are not a mediocre team? Strange, i thought we have been a mid-table team since lotito took over but I must be wrong, I'll check the stats again.

About the 80s, it's true we were a mediocre team. But we had something we have now lost. It's called Lazialità, a special feeling between the fans, the players and the management, from Chinaglia to Casoni and Calleri. Something that pushed 20,000 fans to follow the team away, at Pisa, at Cava dei Tirreni, at Napoli.

p.s.

Proposition . A mediocre team can beat Inter in August.
Proof. Omitted because straightforward

pp.s

Next time you want to write lotito is a winner perhaps is better if you wait for a couple of wins in a row... you'll be a little bit more credible. Notice, I'm not asking you to wait for Lazio to be fighting with the top teams... that would be asking too much.

Chinaglia was a whore who tried to fuck Lazio to make a couple of bucks (and yeah I don´t care if he was capt when we won our first scudetto he´s still a whore).

So much for your respect for a Lazio legend, centro. when I was thinking you couldn't sink deeper, you prove us all wrong.

Chinaglia is not the argument of the topic so if you want to discuss it please open another one.

Anyway, shortly my reply. When he came back from the USA to take over Lazio he did all his best, putting in the project a lot of money of his own. Lazio players of that time remember him as a president that truly loved the club. The fact that his management has been a disaster was simply due to Chinaglia not good at dealing with people, not smart enough.

What has happened next is known. His involvement with the Casalesi clan, I do believe he was clueless about what was really behind that money. After all, he was never the smartest guy and very good at thinking. He was an impulsive.
What really disappointed is his behavior after the burst exploded, with him hiding away and leaving four people in the sh*t without saying anything to help them.

I agree with guardia alta here to an extent. If Lotito left tomorrow, he would be remembered as a winner and the Rossi era will stand out no matter what. The Lazialita' is not completely lost and Lotito will not be remembered for that if he leaves tomorrow.

Unfortunately, Lotito will not leave tomorrow and what he does in the remainder of his year is what he will be judged on. However, if we pick up some more silverware along the way, he will go down as a winner, much as it pains many of us to say it...

Of course, there will be those who remember Lotito in an extreme light and that's fine but I certainly don't think that's how he will go down in unbiased history books I'm afraid...

The guy tried to f'ck the club recently and you still consider him a Legend?

From a business point of view maybe,everything he does is for his own profit.

We fans are not business men.

Can someone tell me ... do many people in Italy see it the same way as the quote above?

To me its really strange that a laziale would write that. Crazy days.

did in italy exsist a rich man who is laziale,or anywhere in world

probably you just don't know lazio history which is very long.
i.e during chinaglia's managemnt we didn't have the money to pay the hotels during the away match.
it was during the 80ies.
lotito manages lazio just as calleri did (another president who helped lazio during the 80ies).
the only difference now is that football now is more diffcult (pay tv, overcoming lobby power reserved to football players, etc.).
after calleri we had cragnotti but without calleri lazio was gone.

history is back again.
lotito is the main shareholeder, he has invested.
he did it, unfortunately i was waiting for a rich russian but i failed.
he will last till a new cragnottti will find profitable managing the club.

fans are just fans and not managers? it's true for the majority.
but there is still a minority who use to sang, a few years ago, in the north stand "francorosso ebreo" (francorosso is a tour operator appointed by mr cragnotti in order to manage in the past international away match.
guess why some guys in the north stand din't like cragnotti's move?

btw i just don'l love lotito.
btw fans must act just like fans.

well, the major just welcomed last week for the two trophies.
proabably you didn't get the news.
firenze major didn't invite the viola squad.
genova major? the same.
and what about naoli soccer 2005 (the old club doesn't exist any longer)? no.
what is lazialità? do you want to give some class about it?

is lazialità, i.e., endorsing chinaglia's attempt to get the club?
how many portals supported that, just to kich away lotito?
how many local radios played not as a neutral observer?

lazio uber alles.
always.
forever.
so let's celebrate 2 more trophies.

people acted non too fair with our club during the years.
including some fans.

btw, conn, if you know some good potential buyer of the club ... give a ring.

he's gone.
i respetc him, but he's gone.

btw the new management still has to pay manfredini, inzaghi and baronio wages.

Thought this topic was claudio lotito. Crazy days.

The man is never a winner in my eyes.

Never!!!
