Gerry Cardinale is unlikely to attend the special game between AC Milan and Genoa, according to a report. Despite the club turning 125 years old, there are no indications of the American jumping on a plane to Italy.
In addition to the special-edition kit, 125 years of existence will also be celebrated with a ceremony prior to the game against Genoa. Several legends are expected to attend, such as Billy Costacurta and Franco Baresi, and it should make for a good atmosphere.
However, as reported by Antonio Vitiello, there are currently no indications of the club owner Gerry Cardinale attending the game. While it’s possible he’s staying away to avoid antagonising the fans further, it certainly seems like a strange decision.
If anything, on an occasion like this, it would have been good for the American to show himself as the project has been heavily questioned in the last few months. There’s no doubt that it will become a talking point on social media if he doesn’t attend.
On the other hand, with or without Cardinale, a club like Milan deserves a nice celebration given just how much it has contributed to the world of football. Of course, a strong performance is also needed from Fonseca’s men.
Pathetic.
I remember meat 🍖 riders were barking at me when I started questioning the ambitions of this board and especially Cardinale’s…
They all were saying long process trust the process it takes timeeee blahblahblahh…
Look at us now, from Champions league semi final to mid-table club we have become in less than 3 years…
Yeah, let’s trust the process. Cardinale has long term plan 🤣🤣
Who cares if he attends or not.
“who cares if the owner doesn’t attend his own club’s 125th anniversary where all the legends come”
As a fan, I rather see club’s celebration attended by legends without an owner who showed lack of ambition, than other way around
He’s a new owner. He should attend.
He’s not Berlusconi who put in work already.
Gerry probably afraid of the boos
Wake me up when cardinale sells the club.
Those 125 birthdays come and go every year so why should be bother? It’s not like he owns the club or cares about it anyway, right?
cvnt owner
I believe that Gerry is on his way out. He won’t be able to pay back the vendor loan before the deadline, so chances are that Elliott will repossess the club.
Good riddance.
Given the clowns he appointed for key positions, the club is in a sad athletic shape. With that, Gerry has been unable to interest investors or buyers – who wants a club that won’t even make the next UCL?
So now Gerry is in trouble with the vendors’ loan. It serves him right. He destroyed his own brand by naming clowns to manage the club, by firing a club legend, and by allowing those clowns to hire an incompetent head coach.
Now the club won’t make the millions from the next UCL participation, investors have no interest in stepping into this mess, and Gerry the “winning is boring” man will finally understand that a football club is not valuable if the team doesn’t perform on the pitch.
Clearly shows the lack of understanding he has for the history of our club.
The blokes a charlatan and a fraud. Just re-enforces what we’ve known all along.
