Once the player, now executive assistant, the "Pepaldo" Lucky says its on the new season. Defending the president and urging the team.
of Bonimba Galloro, 30 October - "This year we have a more competitive team, which boasts a rose made of 27 players, but above all" we have a group made up easier Teams from more affordable and within reach. " In other words, "This year we have not alibi ' and "the responsibility is all on John Buono." If the words of a certain caliber come from Richard Pepe, then you believe it. Because he, for all "Pepaldo" at Lucky Junior's always been, and seasons of the Gialloblu has seen and experienced them all, from first to last, on and off. Today, as a manager responsible for external relations as well as companion, lives the team with eyes very different from those that occur as a "simple" player. And his eyes see a Lucky projected to great things. Because "there is great desire, and there is sacrifice." The third category, sacrifices, and perhaps even requires it imposes. "Here there is people who work, who returns in the evening tired but the desire is to train "and especially to play on Sunday, when he could spend time with their families. But this year there is the desire to get at the complete disposal of the team. "An example of all, to that effect, offered him Spadini ', highlights the director gialloblù companion. "He also did the linesman, and this fact is very important because two years ago would not accept even the bench." Lombardi, in short, "we are putting great seriousness." Yeah, seriously, the crux of Lucky Junior and sore. Last year the coach denounced his lack of seriousness, but this year maybe things could improve in this respect, even if Pepper does not feel to say it explicitly, perhaps for good luck, because football is also made of luck. "Speaking of seriousness is premature, because we are just beginning. Maybe in 5-6 games you can deal with this speech, but for now we can see the spirit of sacrifice and enthusiasm. " And it could not be otherwise: leadership coach and have not made any secret of wanting to excel. "The second category deserve it," Pepe scans. "After eight long years in the third category, it's time to make this leap. Also because now-points-around the team has created a cult following, there an average of 50 spectators per game, and then it is right that the fans can have joy and satisfaction. " The second category, then, is the goal in sports. But at the societal level? Promotion means costs. No problem, reassures Pepe. "Fortini has delegated to the right people." Reference is made to the core leadership in society, he called as core Marco Fortini. And speaking of the President, Pepe puts to rest any controversy, "The rift between Fortini is good and repaired," if only "formally". As he explains, "yet there is no box that once upon a time, but each now takes care of their things." As if to say: to each his own, for a quiet work as ever this season required. Why is there to make that 'leap' as ever this year, according to any environment, feasible. Of course, the grumbling in the locker room never fail, but "the mood is physiological," especially when you have 27 players in the field to manage and leave less than half. "Until last year we had the problem of the short bench, but fortunately this year we have the opposite problem," says Pepe. How to resolve these unknowns will be up to the coach, who has no more excuse for not even the "old" Pepe. Because "the responsibility is all on John Buono."
