Controversy and harsh tones: the passengers were made to get off and get back on after a few minutes. Team escorted upon arrival in Puglia. Four players fined by the club

Tension during the night on the Ryanair Pisa-Bari flight where the red and white players and some Bari fans met who had witnessed the defeat (0-5) of Vivarini’s team in Empoli which ended with boos. As emerges from several videos released on social media, the presence of fans and players on the plane taking the team back to Puglia generated a short circuit with a strong face-to-face meeting between angry supporters and some players: there was an intervention by the police on the plane to calm things down. The passengers were let off, before re-boarding the flight which took off 30 minutes late. After the match, sporting directors Magalini and Di Cesare had apologized to the sports community for the unseemly performance in the Tuscan stadium: four players will be fined by the club for their excessive tone and confrontation with the fans. After 13 games Bari has 13 points and is fully in the play out zone: the team will return to the field on 4 December away for the recovery of the match against Juve Stabia

Upon arrival at Bari-Palese airport, the team was escorted by the police to the San Nicola stadium, where Vivarini’s men had parked their cars. One thing is certain, despite the change of coach (Caserta was sacked last Wednesday), the tunnel into which Luigi De Laurentiis’ club has entered appears increasingly dark. On Thursday Bari will return to the field for the recovery of the match against Juve Stabia.
