A thirty-seven stud, owner the last season in Venice, Rovigo back to no other than to replace Juan Pablo Orlandi (24 year old puma) , a team that last year hit the playoffs and that, because of the silence of the leadership, now you do not know what to aim for the season at hand.
Or the silence is to avoid the embarrassment related to the certainty of not being able to match what you did last year?
"In less than two years since the birth of the cooperative society with limited liability and even twelve months setting up the chairmanship of Susan Vecchi, you breathe in house Rugby Rovigo the air like that, unfortunately, it had used the summers of the last fifteen years, almost always marked by deep uncertainty. (...) He spent the 2007-08 season to settle down, past the steps at the helm of Badocchi, Sigolo Finally, and Vecchi, and a strong team and first-time Super 10 Massimo Brunello led to fifth place and brought in European cups, one just was concluded to represent the Company's definitive revival Rugby Rovigo. had. Because only the team was in line with the ambitions, indeed, bringing in the semifinals and keeping in Europe, Brunello has gone beyond the summer predictions, showing that improving the staff has been possible to do very well. But the rest? Last July, in an interview with the president Gazzettino Susan Vecchi, understandably ambitious and proud of the important role played, had spoken clearly stating, inter alia: " Here I'm going to stay there for long! I'm used to saying what I think and to accept criticism and advice. It is essential acquire professionalism off the pitch. Manage budget of € from 1.7000000 to 1.8000000 requires an efficient organization. We must manage the "safe" and work hard to find other resources to conduct safely the season and plan ahead with subsequent ones. We want to create a solid corporate base, strengthening the excellent group that has started to work since last summer . To cover the most of the entire management and development in various sectors is necessary to strengthen finding the right people . We relied on the professionals is to find sponsorship partners in the various branches that reach up to the club, such as an airline and suppliers main. With Junior Rovigo reports are to be reconnected to get back to having a functional nursery to the first team. In addition we want to get a continuity of technique and Junior Rugby Rovigo. fans, clubs and associations are a bonus for the motion. We are considering how best to enhance this resource. Our goals are, as a minimum, the achievement of results in brilliant season just ended. The Rugby Rovigo is linked to the territory and we will try all available resources, seeking to involve and capitalize. I'd like the number of members increased in number substantially. I want to find the right way to stay long at the helm of the club is aware that compliance is not a right but must be conquered ". But the words which aroused enthusiasm and legitimate expectations followed a few facts and the president is announcing that he will present outgoing to the next ordinary shareholders meeting. You do not have the impression that the Rugby Rovigo has mentioned the need to leap, to reach that strength that is even more important results of the field. The team has grown, has shone and impressed, the company appears blurred, so much so that we in June and uncertainty. The Board of Directors formed by Vecchi, Badocchi, Baratella, and Brizzante Sigolo it has been convened for the last time ahead of autumn which approved the budget after that meeting, the members have not been involved ; Paul Brizzante , crucial engine of the first year, day after day was set aside and created a dualism detrimental to the team manager Andrea Scanavacca so many months out of the picture has resigned; the corporate organization was based only on the president, secretary and team manager where there is a stampede ; decisions are still taken to the home of some notables as in the past; the youth continues to sail in sight between the fan clubs organized discontent reigns ; there have been misunderstandings and disagreements with other organizations like the Aldo Milani Club at the famous tournament. course in Rovigo came the Italian Cup final played in a desert Battaglini, president of the Old part of the committee studying the reform of the championship, but are picture elements, which have no positive impact on the colors rossoblù . And in financial terms the situation is even worse. From much-ballyhooed advertising professionals is not got a euro, is the FemiCz remained the only company on the side of the club (probably not abandon) along with a handful of companies , crates and so languish were cut and the salary on paper is not a rose is putting in a competitive league, with the return of punishments to those who will bring down the rolling maul, for a team like that leggerina rossoblù will be tough. In short, the two main tasks, corporate organization and financial strength have not been achieved, indeed, the situation is worse than twelve months ago. Expect that the facts belie this trend.

"When a club dismisses its technical worn ritual of relying on a press of a few lines that does not negate, as expected, thanks for your work, very often means that the conclusion of that report was not the best. (...) It is interesting to note that this year, together qualification playoff, when we find ourselves to face, for very different reasons, with the disappearance of the technician who has reached this result. This also confirms how difficult it is to stay for more than two seasons on the bench rossoblu. (...) But in recent years more and going home was to rossoblu of Presidents. Since the disappearance of Charles Bego, in 2001, they totaled eight. When changing executive leadership and technical guidance with such frequency becomes very difficult to talk about programs and continuity of management. It becomes even more so in the presence of a particular situation such as that of the Italian rugby at this time. The retirement of the Super 10, Celtic League in the entry of two Italian relief and the arrival of a new league-edged yet to be defined, will change the scenario of rugby top and in this context that the new company rossoblu will find a place that does not betray the expectations of an environment that is unparalleled in Italian rugby.
" Bacchetti has signed Basson sign, the jury remains, Di Maura Sanchez and idem, Favaro it goes with infamy ... "
seems the festival of confirmations and gossip, at least according to what some newspapers say. Instead just make a few phone calls to find out Favaro, which is in the same situation as many rossoblu, which was proposed a reduction of the engagement, Bacchetti that has not yet signed anything, that Basson had three offers, two of which are very advantageous. It turns out that the jury did not mention the company that Maura is anything but close to a signature and Sanchez, precious trocar in recent seasons, he is forced to seek an accommodation for next year, given the non-signals coming Via Alfieri.
There is another certainty, looking into the eyes of players who were the authors of this wonderful season: huge and profound sadness, hopelessness and despair.
