O “official pronouncement“Granted by Flamengo on Tuesday (09) divided opinions. While the red-blacks vibrated with the petition to become a” symbolic nation of the UN, who does not like the most beloved revolted. This was the case of the journalist Arnaldo Ribeiro, who treated the movement of Mengão as “Soberba Clubística.

“Good afternoon, ‘superb clubs’. Have you ever called everyone to sign the petition? Zico sent a goal of 500,000. Go?” Wrote the page ‘Socio-Pictor Nation’, at X (old Twitter), official club channel. In the comments, the nation had fun with the ‘pokes’.

I loved the mockery, you can continue”Wrote a Flamengo fan.“In the face of Arnaldo Ribeiro. Malvadão is on another level”, I typed another. In addition, several laughed, realizing the club’s irony for the journalist, who is an assumed fans of São Paulo.

After all, what did Arnaldo Ribeiro said?

During participation in debate on the subscription channel ‘Bandsports’, on Tuesday (09), Arnaldo completely disagreed with the action promoted by Flamengo. In addition, the journalist thinks that the movement promoted by the most beloved ways away than attracts fans.

This thing of being bigger than others, feeling bigger than others… Clubistic superb. I don’t think it’s measuring just because of the number of fans. Anyway, that’s it. I never understand when a popular club takes this initiative, when it intends to separate and become a unique thing, not admired by others. It happens many times. This drives people away, and it doesn’t approach – Said Arnaldo Ribeiro, in ‘Bandsports’.

What is Flamengo’s petition?

The campaign, which wants to make Flamengo as the first “symbolic-cultural nation” on the planet, aims to engage the huge red-black crowd around a symbolic movement. Recognition by the UN, although on a symbolic basis, would be the international validation of a phenomenon that is already manifesting in Brazil and around the world. The campaign makes room for the direct participation of the fans, which can support the cause by signing the digital petition. To do this, just enter the Peticao.flamengo.com.br page.

In short, in less than seven hours of campaign, the movement reached more than 100,000 signatures, numbers that were expected for the weekend, according to Flamengo. Until the early evening of Wednesday (10), the campaign was attended by over 370 thousand red-blacks, after all.
