Ronaldo in the crosshairs of a fringe of Valladolid fans: “He defends Real Madrid”, “Give us back the crest”

An organized group openly contested the Brazilian.

Ronaldo ended up in the crosshairs of Real Valladolid fans. The Phenomenon has found a stocking full of coal and controversy. Not even the Epiphany managed to bring peace between the leadership and a fringe of fans who hung banners almost everywhere that weren’t exactly conciliatory towards the Brazilian.

ATTACK

—

A frontal attack, but also… lateral. Several messages against the president and the top management appeared both on the access door to the changing rooms and on the access stairs to the facility. In the viewfinder some of their latest decisions. First of all, the one linked to the coat of arms. A banner leaves no room for interpretation. “Give us back our Scudetto”. A clear reference to the change that the club made last June. The other, however, is linked to the controversy over the Vinicius case. Ronaldo condemned without ifs and buts the attitude of those who insulted the Real Madrid footballer. In response we read: “Ronaldo defends Real Madrid? Valladolid! 84!”. And it is precisely behind that number that we can easily trace the organized group of supporters who contest the president for never raising his voice to defend the interests of the club. The same account of Valladolid1984 “claimed” the authorship of the banners on twitter with lots of requests. The club asks to return to the old crest, to defend the fans and the club and not to take advantage of the club for their own interests or those of others.

It is not the first time that some Real Valladolid fans have collided with the Phenomenon. Already in November 2020, when the team was going through a particularly complicated moment in the championship which would then culminate with relegation to the Spanish second division, Ronaldo had been reproached with a certain lack of interest in the club. And without too many compliments, he had been invited to think less about Brazil and tennis and more about Valladolid. On that occasion the fans also feared a possible disengagement in case of relegation. In light of the facts, never happened. The return to La Liga had made the Brazilian’s prices rise in the approval rating of the fans but it didn’t take much to unearth the hatchet.
