Riquelme in depth against Macri: “He wants to keep the club to privatize it and never vote again

Juan roman riquelmevice president of Jorge Ameal, He stated that he “never” fought “against royal power”in reference to his most recognized opponent in the next elections of Boca Juniors -even with an uncertain date of completion-, Mauricio Macri, but he said that that is why “in this country, anyone who doesn’t fuck is crazy.”

“In this country, he who doesn’t fuck is crazy. I never fought against real power, and that’s why I say that”he indicated Riquelme in response to Télam’s query during the press conference held today at La Bombonera regarding the suspension of the elections that were to be held next Sunday at the request of Judge Alejandra Abrevaya, “due to irregularities in the registry.”

Meanwhile, abroad more than five thousand “xeneizes” fans celebrated a flag of support for Riquelme as a presidential candidate against the opposition formula Andrés Ibarra-Mauricio Macri.

At gate 3 of the stadium, “Soy bostero”, the group created by Riquelme and his brother Cristian, along with others of official rank, led that demonstration on Brandsen 805, where two flags were hung with these inscriptions: “Set the date you want, we will still vote for Román” and “We will cancel the 13,500 members if you cancel the 51,473”.

And there Riquelme appeared once the conference he gave in the club’s press room had concluded, strikingly without the presence of the current president and candidate for his vice president, Jorge Amealwhere he was surrounded and acclaimed by those present.

“We have everything ready to vote on Sunday and that makes me feel good, but what is happening makes me a little sad, but I feel lucky to be in this place. The three tents are ready for Sunday. I hope it is Sir (always pointing at Macri without naming him) “Let the fans vote on Sunday.”Riquelme attacked.

“I was lucky to play in Europe and in the Argentine national team, but this is the biggest club in the world. And today Macri agreed with me when I said that for sponsors to arrive, the “nine” from Qatar had to come to Boca. He told me to bring a friend of his to play in the Argentine Cup. How are we going to do something like that,” he warned.

About the reasons why the judge Abrevaya suspended the elections with a resolution signed at 1:40 today in which the appointment of more than 13,000 members who went from adherents to active and therefore are authorized to vote is called into question, Riquelme was critical of the press .

“I don’t see that they ask with as much enthusiasm as we do, that they have added 51,473 more members for the 2019 elections”he questioned.

“And today I was wondering what this man will be like in his daily life, if someone in his family asks him how it is possible that he is going to present himself as president (actually vice president) when he is promoting a complaint precisely so that the members do not vote” , he highlighted.

“We are facing the clearest elections in the history of our club, because if these gentlemen win, they give the club to those three friends they have abroad and then yes, in Boca we will never vote again”he accused.

He then referred to “these three characters (Ibarra, Macri and Mario Pergolini, his former vice president now a member candidate for the opposition) who want to privatize the club. And we cannot allow that. We are going to vote on Sunday, Monday or whenever, but let’s to vote, and we will always win. And today María, my mother, asked me to win these elections”.

“Because they want the club to do politics. They changed the date from Saturday to Sunday due to a false complaint in which the signatures of three members were forged and it is serious (the requested change was due to the fact that Saturday is Shabbat for the Jewish community and then those members couldn’t go to vote),” he reflected.

“For example, the judge made him follow my brother in a white car, and if he got scared and wanted to escape instead of stopping, it could have caused a tragedy,” he shot crudely.

“Hopefully the judge (Alejandra Abrevaya) allows us to hold the elections next Sunday, because we are going to win the elections by a little more than the 95 to 5 that I said before,” he appreciated.

“Because these people (the current opponents), when they govern, have a very great power of communication and show that they do everything well, but when they do not govern, they point out whoever is there because according to them he does everything wrong, But it turns out that we brought many figures to the squad and 28,000,000 dollars in surplus. And of course it hurts us that in the last month we have run out of gas and we will not be in the Libertadores next year,” he noted.

At the beginning of the conference Riquelme He was briefly accompanied by lawyer Walter Krieger, whom he described as a “phenomenon”, and who gave him legal support in reference to the clarification of some very specific judicial issues.

“The judge was wrong with the dates on which she founded the reasons for the suspension of the elections. And she fell into a great contradiction between the historical proposal of trying to generate active members and now suspending the elections to precisely incorporate active members,” express Krieger.

“The judge bases her resolution on the statements of some witnesses who it is not known how they were incorporated into the case, such as the cases of Mario Pergolini and a former employee of the club. Therefore, clearly and in light of these irregularities, it is will ask the magistrate to revoke her measure,” the lawyer endorsed Krieger.

In the front row of the Ribera club’s conference room, Riquelme had the unrestricted support of all the coaches in the lower divisions, whom he thanked “for such a gesture of support, since it means that things were done well, and they are part of making that happen.”
