Juventude Leonina accused Sporting’s management of failing to defend members after being charged by the police, which failed to spare “women, children and people with reduced mobility” in the match with Casa Pia of the I Football League.
“This Sports Directorate, which does not defend its members in any way, has issued a statement not asking for the determination of responsibilities in the police charge of women, children and people with reduced mobility who were seen on the bench. Or is this Directorate with always JL [Juventude Leonina] to divert the focus from the bad moments?” said Juventude Leonina, in a statement released on social networks, after the club announced this Sunday it was “severing” relations with the cheerleader.
For Juventude Leonina, on Saturday there was an “excessive police burden (which only happens in Alvalade, who knows why) in the A14 sector, which hit Sporting’s partners in an abrupt and incoherent way”.
“If the focus [da carga policial] was the alleged pyrotechnics, we inform you that there are excellent surveillance cameras that allow you to detect violations immediately, but like two hours before the match, at the headquarters of Juventude Leonina, we had already had an inspection by the ASAE, the municipal police and the Intervention Corps. , the police charge was the completion of an alleged strategy,” the note adds.
The ‘leonine’ claque goes back a bit to make it clear to the members that, in an effort to reestablish ties with the management led by Frederico Varandas, they agreed to sign a protocol, after which they provided the necessary data. sent to the club to be returned to the Authority for the Prevention and Combating of Violence (AVCD) and the legalization of the Organized Adepts Group (GOA) is being reinstated.
“It was a bureaucratic and lengthy process, which, between corrections and revisions, never ended. We were constantly sending ’emails’ to the board, which were always ignored. We also sent them to the supporter liaison officer (OLA), who he never knew how to answer the question or any other question that we should have clarified. Since the end of August, this Council has referred, as a feature in these years, to silence and ignore its partners and GOA,” concludes the explanation .
