Just over 24 hours and the pitch will finally issue its first unquestionable judgment. Messina’s hot summer ends with the “good championship to everyone” that president Sciotto wishes to the fans through a letter published on the club’s social media channels.
Confidentiality agreement The top white-blue executive considers himself “proud to have been a Messina fan since birth and I will never do anything that could voluntarily cause harm. Despite having risked my life twice, I have started the well-known transfer negotiation with the American fund (with French presidency and buyer) that exists and is widely documented, although bound by the mutual confidentiality agreement. I have assured my total commitment even in these last months that have been terrible for me. I have continued to work to ensure that ACR Messina was ready to participate competitively in the Serie C championship”.
Budget and protest The official departure of Domenico Franco towards Picerno further impoverishes the quality of the squad available to Giacomo Modica, in which the desire to emerge in the new players is a counterbalance to the inexperience they bring with them. President Sciotto, however, reiterates his financial commitment and points the finger at the protest of the organized fans: “Despite the protests that risk leading to a reduction in season tickets, tickets and sponsors, I have assigned the sports director and our coach the same budget as last year. All my efforts are and will be aimed at ensuring that Messina takes to the field with the strongest possible team and that it wins for my happiness and that of the fans. I hope that the young players are ensured the best context, even emotional, to give the maximum of their possibilities”.
Towards the match Against Potenza, Marino, Morleo and Cominetti risk not being available, having been sidelined in the training match played on Thursday. There would be cautious optimism about Marino’s recovery (apart from the previous days), but the uncertain situation will be clarified by coach Modica who will present the match at midday. Petrungaro will certainly be out due to suspension, while in the middle of the field, in place of Franco, Anzelmo could be “promoted”.
Pre-sale From 12:00 yesterday, at authorized sales points and on the website PostoRiservato.it, it is possible to buy tickets to watch the match against Potenza (kick-off at 20:45). Prices already communicated on the occasion of the “presentation” of the season ticket campaign: 16 euros in the Curva (9 euros reduced for women, Under 16 and Over 65), 22 euros in Tribuna A (14 euros reduced).
