Once the expression 'to be sports' to identify persons who could live life with serenity, without too much blame for something that could have caused anger. I grew up with this teaching, but now I know it will no longer be so.
for me today 'to be sports' has a new meaning: to live according to the logic of the business, without a heart beating again face the world of sport.
I'm not a fierce supporter, but I just can not swallow a fine of 2,000 euro fine imposed for failing to Manfredonia Calcio played on Sunday the meeting in Barletta.
Here, however, I believe that fans will not be a factor.
comes into play a bible of laws and regulations that every day is erecting a wall higher and higher between sport and those who follow him. As you can fine a team for not having played a match after one of the players has been reached in the field by the terrible news of the death of his wife and little son of ten months?
According to the rules, "the postponement of a race, even when agreed by the two companies must be notified to the League, organizer of the event for the ratification of the agreement, that only the anniversary of that performance can be no question of race postponed since it must otherwise be considered the same as "race not held" with all the disciplinary consequences. "
Therefore, the court 'sports' for non-compliance of the procedures required by the Regulations of the League has fined the company Manfredonia fine of 2,000 €.
The beauty is, so to speak, that the company should still be grateful to the League for not having lost the race to the table and to have had only a postponement of the same.
And after a week spent in morgues and funeral, with a city stricken strettasi and bereavement around the company at such a painful, the show must go on. Incredible to think that, face of certain tragic events, laws and regulations can not be exceeded.
I, here near the gulf, I can only hope to quickly forget the teaching received about being fit. From now on I prefer to be human.
