No later than a week ago, we told the story surreal situation that was being experienced in the Albenga housedespite a third place in Group A of Serie D just five points from the top. The corporate events that in the summer had also jeopardized the club’s registration seemed to be archived, but here came the farewell of coach Marco Mariotti, who had moved on to lead Prato, and with him that of 19 players and the Sports Director Francesco Virdis; all with the match against Novaromentin just around the corner.
Challenge that was played anyway, with the Bianconeri took to the field with the Junior boys led by coach Thomas Massawho however had to give up their tournament match against Asti; a situation which, in the Under 19 championship, cost the Ligurian club a one-point penalty in the standings and a 1,500 euro fine. It should also be noted that the first team’s match was lost 5-0.
Nothing compared to the heavy slap in the midweek round (10th matchday), with Lavagnese winning 8-0; and Albenga still with the youth players on the pitch. The reassurances on the continuity of the sports project are starting to falter, and the market has not responded well to the situation: as we read above ivg.it‘Liberate the Albenga’ is the banner that appeared today at the ‘Annibale Riva’. The situation is constantly evolving, and even if at the moment the ranking still speaks of seventh place, the moonlights are not the best.
