Messina met in the city yesterday, after the Easter holidays, to begin preparing for the very delicate direct survival clash scheduled for Sunday against Ragusa. Regularly in the saddle is the coach Vincenzo Feola, soundly rejected so far by the results but remained at the helm of the team towards the very delicate poker of commitments that separate the Acr from the end of the regular season. The 3 points in the last 8 games, 2 in the last 5, have not led the expert coach to give up, nor has the ownership thought of changing to give new impetus and reverse the trend after the worrying signs of involution, in terms of attitude (lost and fearful), in the last few outings. Carry on like this, it’s a choice, we’ll see if it’s fruitful. Hoping that the coach regains the clarity that, between attempts and experiments, he seems to have lost in the absolute delicacy of the moment that the team is experiencing.
Feola who in any case will not be on the bench on Sunday at the “Franco Scoglio” nor in the following away match in Lamezia against Vigor. The sports judge in fact disqualified him after the expulsion in the match against Savoy, which was actually ungenerous because the coach had intervened to prevent two players from getting into the clash and he was the subject of a red card for a refereeing error. In his place, Giuseppe Savanarola, who has been a constant coach since September, despite the changes between three coaches, will lead the group from the bench. No official news on the DS front, a few rumors and nothing more. However, the 1-2 draw against Gelbison was approved: Messina did not follow up on the pre-announcement of the complaint, generating the inadmissibility of the appeal itself (the cost of the contribution was charged).
Meanwhile, the discounts for the next very important match have been defined: entrance to the stands and curve reduced by the company from 12 to 5 euros (including presale), grandstand at 15 euros. «A concrete gesture of closeness to our people, to rally us even more around the team at a decisive moment of the season – we read in a note -. Messina, this is your match. It’s time to be present, to make the warmth and voice of an entire city felt. Salvation also comes from everyone’s support, from the packed stands, from the cheering that never stops. Every presence counts, every voice makes the difference.”
