The Tsunami Lotito

Today:
CALCIO; IRA LOTITO 'LAZIO REAGISCI,O SARO' GIUDICE SPIETATO' 'PRENDERO' PROVVEDIMENTI INASPETTATI, SONO TUTTI SOTTO ESAME' (ANSA) - ROMA, 23 MAR - ''Voglio che la squadra combatta con la giusta cattiveria fino al termine della stagione o saro' un giudice spietato''. Non usa mezzi termini il presidente della Lazio, Claudio Lotito, dopo la sconfitta di Catania, arrivata in seguito al ko all'Olimpico contro il Chievo. Le due partite perse dal gruppo di Delio Rossi non sono piaciute affatto al numero uno biancoceleste che, prima di prendere parte all'assemblea elettiva della Figc a Fiumicino, dove sara' riconfermato Giancarlo Abete, ha espresso tutto il suo malumore: ''Quando giochiamo contro squadre piu' piccole di noi abbiamo un calo di tensione - la parole di Lotito -, forse crediamo di vincere semplicemente entrando in campo. Adesso chiedo alla squadra di combattere sul campo e di dare sempre il 100 per cento, poi si potra' vincere o perdere, ma voglio vedere un atteggiamento diverso''. ''Se non dovesse verificarsi un cambio di tendenza adottero' provvedimenti completamente diversi e inaspettati nei confronti di tutto lo staff - ha poi avvisato -, capiranno chi e' il vero Lotito. La societa' ha fatto sin qui grandi investimenti, tutti vengono pagati in maniera puntuale e adesso devono lavorare per dare qualcosa alla Lazio''. ''Non e' colpa della sconfitta di Catania, quello che rimprovero alla squadra e' l'approccio - ha concluso il presidente della Lazio -. Ogni volta si trova una scusa, prima l'allenatore, poi i tifosi, quindi la testa. Ora basta, ora mi interessano solo i risultati. Ci ritroviamo in classifica a star dietro a club che hanno compagini meno forti della nostra e non va bene, sono tutti sotto esame''. (ANSA) 23-MAR-09 11:48

From the Hilton Hotel in Rome during the FIGC convention:
A very , very upset President Lotito have declared , screaming, in front of many journalist:

LA LAZIO IS NOT PLAYING AS I EXPECTED! I HONOUR ALL SALARY, ALL PAYMENTS AND THEY MUST WORK ON THE FIELD!
I can't accept this behaviour on the field against teams like Chievo Catania with different and medium players!
NOW I PRETEND FROM THE THE WHOLE TEAM , THE WHOLE STAFF, TO FIGHT IN EVERY MATCH! THEY MUST HONOUR THE COMPANY( LA LAZIO).
THEY MUST RESPECT THEIR CONTRACTS.

If they will not respect this statement i will, at the end of the season, be a TERRIBLE JUDGE without pity!

FROM NOW ON ONLY RESULTS WILL BE IMPORTANT FOR ME AND no excuses!!!

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Seems the geezer is fed up with pretty much the same things people on this forum are pissed off about. Maybe this will shake things up a bit.

---------------------------

And although I don't like it when club presidents instruct coaches on what to do or make threats, it is kind of nice to see a "hands-on" approach from Lotito.

At least we can see he cares.

Hard to say it was a good or bad news, but when Lotito fed up I guess he think exactly what we're discussing about!

Can only be good news in my opinion. Things need to be changed.

I think it can bee good news . We can only wait and see what happens.

good timing Lotito ... now the players know what to do ... PLAY for the club/fans or LEAVE the club, regardless the result

agree, Lotito had to do this alot earlier.

gees, finally he finished his word that we dont have chance its good for start lottito in next move fire delio:D but if u mentioned he said in end of season so we must forget that he fire delio before his end of contract

As u noticed i did not commented Lotito words.
I did nt coz i have my personal opinion about ; The statement, The timing, The indications, The subject.

I have my own idea the Lotito is covering his ass from his own mistakes for future decisions about Zarate, pandev rossi, siviglia e some other.

Now i am on the window watching .

I hope that's not the case, surely he can't use our poor form as excuses not to renew Pandev and Zarate, the 2 players aside from Rocchi, Foggia Lichti that have got us where we are. Guess you never know with Claudius.

let's hope the Prez has a project for the future
build a team around the certainties, and get rid of the 'm€rc€nari€e$'

I like it but it's to late, this words were needed many months ago.

Big talk from the man who forcefully brought us Del Nero as replacement for Jimminez ahead of the champions leauge

I think Lotito should take his rabies medication and do the right thing - put the club up for sales!!

Great idea in theory stupid idea in principle.

I fully agree with Paolo's hinting. This is a move to cover his back in the summer. Not only that, but I think he may want to push the likes of Pandev and Ledesma away from the club. Who wants to stay at a club where a president is making contract threats?

Hehe ,this will be very stupid if he sell our best players and keep the dead woods. I can't see this as covering his ass at all or if it is , it is obvious a big joke. I don't know who will buy something like this...

What surprises me is the fact that 75% of the people in this forum ever belived that this man had intentions to extend with our bet players.

Ermetico: Lotito doesn´t need excuses to not prolonge contracts with the best players for 2 reasons.

1. The fans are loyal and show up at the stadium.
2. The players don´t want to stay :)

Just imagine what would happen is 3 home games in a row 100 people (no more) showed up at the olimpico with a banner saying "Lotito sell Lazio"

Just 100 people and a huge banner.

Little late. Lottio carriage has turn in to a pumpkin, midnight has passed and nothing can be done in this late hours. It so late that even the prince bother to look for the shoe and go into some pub on his way. I just pray this to wake up some for the derby. We must keep the pride.

Lotito = Cinderella

I rather wait and hope that it's not the evil idea in that romanista's head Ermetico is talking about.

Someone mentioned selling Lazio....that's a dream that will never come true actually. Would've been funny if he sold Lazio back to Cragnotti though

Actually Soros wanted to buy roma a year ago and some rich dude bought man city just the other day or month ago. I think that there are people who see football as a fun passing of time and at the right price would buy Lazio.

Jesus Christ I'd rather have ol' Scrooge as president than some spoiled billionaire who will treat the club I adore as a "fun pass-time"

Lotito plans changes
Monday 23 March, 2009
Lazio President Claudio Lotito believes something has to change at the club if the Biancocelesti are to get back to winning ways.

Lazio lost 1-0 at Catania on Saturday evening and are now ninth in the table with eight games remaining this season.

The Biancocelesti have now lost their last two games and still have Roma, Inter and Juventus to play before the end of the campaign.

“It is time the team changed its attitude and gave something back to this club which has given it a lot,” Lotito said.

“Everyone is under examination, everyone is responsible, even those who believe themselves to be great champions.

“From now until the end of the championship we need a different approach, otherwise I will take unforeseen and unexpected decisions.

“I will be tough with everyone,” he concluded. “Now they are all on international duty, but when they return, they will realise who Lotito really is.

....... Yes a crook that makes empty promises.



------------------------------------------------------

Lotito, get rid of Delio Rossi. Just make sure to not renew his contract. We need a top coach. Somone with ambition to carry us forward and is not scared to play against pigs like Juventus Inter.

And then, when you are done, find a decent buyer and dont think about making huge profit you fat ugly pig.

Why on earth would you want some rich twat to buy the club for a bit of fun? What when he gets bored? Leaves us and kills the club? Watch the Premiership in 10 years and see what happens once Abramovich and Gillet etc are bored.

And apart from that, Italians will never accept for e.x. a Jew becoming the president of their beloved club, especially LAZIO - the team of the Capital. Whereas England is a Jewish country and a better place to invest in......ehrm, I'm sorry, I guess I'm really off the topic now. :)

Anyways, I don't want Soroses or Abramoviches be president of my LAZIO. I rather have the greedy, but ROMAN Lotito.
