Fiorentina Banner: Protest & Empty Corner Explained

Florence, 21 December 2025 – The Christmas atmosphere does not mitigate the anger of the Fiorentina fans. The situation in the rankings it’s heavy. The Viola, still without victories (the only team to have never reached three points in this championship) are looking for vital points to avoid the specter of relegation. Which no one can name but which unfortunately is a bugaboo. The fans’ anger is on display against Udinese.

The first 20 minutes were desolately empty

In the first twenty minutes of the match the curve remains empty. For a very heavy silence, which wants to underline the dissent of the fans towards the club, guilty, according to the supporters themselves, of having made several mistakes. Around the 18th minute of the first half, in the empty sector, before the entrance to the curve, a banner appears: “Shame on you all”. As the fans enter, several firecrackers are thrown, again as a sign of protest. The situation therefore remains difficult, the climate is what it is and reflects an absolutely unprecedented ranking situation for the Fiorentina. The defeat in the Conference League in Lausanne further exacerbated the situation. What everyone hopes is that finally the team, when we are now at Christmas, will be able to achieve that victory which would at least give a boost from a morale point of view. Which is currently under our heels near the Franchi stadium. “Wake up, we have to run and win”, shouted the fans as the Fiorentina bus arrived.

The hard statement of the curve

There were several insults to the players when the purple bus arrived at the stadium around 4.30pm Franks. Very hard in the meantime the press release from the Fiesole curve: “We won’t give up,” say the fans. But, they explain, “We find ourselves faced with an embarrassing team group, made up of many small men, without p… and without a spine. Chosen by the poorest that this club has seen: Daniele Pradè who is still rumored to like to frequent the Viola Park offices”.
