After what was the last defeat of Colón against Talleres in Córdoba, the squad led today by Adrián Marini met at the June 4 venue this Tuesday to direct the work with Argentinos Juniors in mind, the rival they will receive the following Monday for Date 21 of the Professional League. In the complex there were unexpected visitors: a group of bars spoke in abrupt terms with the referents of the establishment and the thing almost happened to majors.

According to information collected by several local media, at least two dozen members of the bar identified as “Los de Siempre” went to one of the common areas of the property and threatened the soccer players, in addition to demanding that they hand over shirts, clothing and money. It was also mentioned that firearms were exhibited and that one of the interlocutors from the campus ended up on the floor. Wanchope abila, the For money Rodríguez and Paolo Goltz would have been the singing voices.

Before the game that was played in the Elephant Cemetery against San Lorenzo (goalless draw), a flag appeared hanging from the fence of the popular directed towards the leaders that said “You don’t fuck with Columbus” next to the drawing of a firearm with the signature of The Always. Upon spotting it, the police officers involved in that day’s operation proceeded to remove it.

One of the referents of the Santafesino group communicated with Argentinian soccer players unionized to publicize the situation experienced and learn about the steps to follow in this type of circumstance. At the bottom it is said that the players could stop training throughout the week and even that some would choose to terminate their contract unilaterally if they are guaranteed in the legal framework.
