is this somekind of early April fools joke?

it's not even april yet.....this is real.

Its a suspneded sentence... he's going nowhere.. u will see him in the stadium always and forever!

There is a man who doesn't know the meaning of the word "shame". Not even now, after this sentence that has found him guilty of cheating thousands of Lazio shareholders. No shame for lotito, still the purest being on earth.

This sentence does mean nothing for Lazio, and perhaps for lotito too (even if the FIGC rule states that he should be immediately suspended).
However, it adds another brick to understand better this guy, this sad guy, we had the disgrace to have as Lazio president.

Lazio are currently doing well and the squads value must be very high with talented players playing for lazio with lots of potential. Just get rid of Rossi and get in a new manager with a pedigree, then Lazio would be a good investment.

Thanks Lotito for helping us, but we dont need a tight ass president. Lotito can go and own a small club. We are too big for him and need a president that will listen to the fans. The fans will come flocking back to the stands, buying merchandise, etc etc, we can be up there again with very good club sales revenues.

Lotito give your shares back and hope to god that some billionaire comes in and buys Lazio

How can the squad value be high when no players of value have long term contracts??

Who will control the team, who will make the new contract......or Lotito will try to control things from jail and put his muppet as new president.

Perhaps Tare? The next Galliani...

I don't think Lotito will be effected in anyways, but this is such a shame...makes me puke!

You guys are so ungrateful, its a disgrace what you say, and quiet frankly embarrassing for me, because we all fall under the same category "Lazialis".
I don't care if you love him of hate him, but we should stick together and respect our president no matter who he is. As far as I'm concerned this man saved Lazio when no one did, and is created a great team with great stars. Now he might go to jail and I hear that some people are happy?! He's a human being, with a wife and family! Why would we ever be happy to see a Laziali go to jail? Especially our president?! Jeez!
He's a smart business man, and is currently running this team better than our previous president; by being a realist. Anyways, I'm not really here to defend him, I've done that several times in the past, but I guess in the end we all have our opinions, but we should agree that we have to stick together. Right now, he's our president, and we have to be grateful for what he's done. The ungrateful attitude in this forum isn't just directed to Lotito, but also Rossi. How fast are we to jumping ship when things go bad? That's not what being a fan is all about. On the contrary Rossi has done great things with very little resources in the past. This year it took him time to figure out the best formation for the team, and I think he's finally getting there.
Seriously guys, we need to be loyal, grateful and especially patient, especially with this team. That's my definition of true Laziali spirit and this is why I love this team, because through bad and good we stick together and never give up! Non mollari mai, remember? It's not just a song

Forza Lazio!

Go and tell the same to Lazio shareholders, and see what they tell you.

We are talking about thousands of Lazio fans who made the hell of a lot of sacrifices to buy Lazio shares, to help Lazio. Many Lazio fans who renounced to a new car, a new motorbike, a long expected holiday, and that at the end lost all the money they invested. And that were cheated by lotito and mezzaroma.

This is what that sentence is about. Much more to come in the future about this guy, stay tuned.

back from work... so just some more thoughts triggered by aDDi's post.

If I remember well, in this Forum the news that the Irriducibili leaders were jailed made more than one people happy (jump, where are you? ). Cannot the same happen now?
There is a difference, however. After more than two years the IRR's charges have not been proved , and yet they spent 2 years in prison. On the other hand, lotito has already been proved guilty by two tribunals :) And here is the happy ending: the friendship between Lotito and some of the police officers that led the enquiry against the IRR is not a mystery at all.

The true meaning of Lazialità was brilliantly given by Renzo Nostini, unforgettable Lazio athlete and Polisportiva Lazio president. If you read that letter, which I posted long ago, you'll see that your president lotito doesn't fall - and by far - into the "Laziale" category. :)

Lotito may have been the saviour of our club, but he is not "the" saviour, more "a" saviour.

In other words, it takes more than one man to save a football team and there is always more than one man who can save the day. This is a stupid analogy, but for every spiderman there is a batman. In other words, for every Lotito there is another guy who can do the same thing.

Yes, Claudio has done a lot of "good" for this club but at what cost? And is the "good" actually good in the long run?

Lotito is not Lazio. I wish he went to jail and that he had to give the club up. i know i will not happen and everyday I pray and hope for the day he leaves us alone (and I dont care if that means that he dies).

Lotito has been "okay", but with this story I can't see him continue his job.. But as you have said, it's Italy and on some points its a really strange country because its not even sure he will end up in jail (the same with the policeman = Gabri)

I really don't think he will end up in jail, but could someone please explain what did he do? I understood that he tried to control the club by buying more than 30% of the shares through MazzaRoma or whatever his name is. And if that's the case how did that affect Lazio fans who bought shares? just wondering I'm not well informed about this issue. thanks

Thats Lotito's problem. He needs to renew and then the value of the likes of pandev, ledesma will hold value.

If we sold all players, we can easily get a lot of money for all of them.

Will Lotito go to jail or? I really don't understand Italy on surden areas..

Sorry to bring this topic back up, but could someone (maybe Conn) explain us the outcome of Lotito Mezzaroma's case?

Someone put Lotito in jail so that the club can be sold to someone who is pasionate. Lotito is running lazio like a shop who has bad management skills.

Zarate is cheesed off with Lotito also as he has not kept to his promises of making the squad stronger and instead buys really cheap players

You are right, we haven't talked about this for a while.

The issue was supposed to be discussed this week at "Consiglio di Stato" for the final decision, but it has been postponed to December 1st.

If the initial decision is confirmed, then lotito will have to sell about 15% of Lazio shares. While in this case he will still remain the majority shareholder (he has 66%), someone buying that share would get the right to seat in the club council board.

Thank you for the info Ale. Lets say the initial decision is confirmed, he sells those 15% and somebody gets a seat in the council, what would that mean?
And just out of curiosity, who owns the other 34%?

Welcome!
Well, the probability that someone wakes up and gets a significant share is actually almost null. If it happens, however, for lotito it will be more difficult to get away with some "strange" operations, as the ones I mentioned here:
https://laziofever.forumotion.com/only-ss-lazio-f1/claudio-lotito-t414-300.htm

The other 34 % is extremely fractioned on the market, there is no a big player that owns a considerable amount of shares.
In fact, the target of lotito is the delisting of the club from the stock market. To get to that, he need to reach 90% of the capital...

I bet that his wife will buy those 15% or Tare for instance.

God help us all if that ever happens.

Ciao Alessio, thanks for the update, I'm looking forward to hearing any news from you especially after the 1st of december..

OK thank you for sharing!

I don't think if the court makes him sell 15% they will allow a family member to buy them so relax

but another question steps up in my head: some of you really wanted Lotito to sell the shares so someone can buy them and yet there are 34% out there that no one looked for them since a long period of time
