Massis rules out São Paulo coup, board under pressure after meeting | OneFootball

Some directors of São Paulo were strongly criticized by fans after a meeting of the club's Deliberative Council this Friday. President Harry Massis spoke to the press after the meeting and dismissed the possibility of a coup against his management.

One of the topics discussed in the council was the illegal ticket scheme at Morumbi, which mentioned the name of Christina Massis, Harry's daughter, in the allegations.

“There was no problem talking about my daughter, Christina. We issued a note about the ticket issue to you. It was a calm meeting. There was no mention of resignation. I appreciate the support of the fans, I am doing the best I can. Olten felt it (the fans' protests). I am calm. I don't believe he (Olten Ayres) has this intention of a coup. There will be an investigation into the ticket issue,” said Harry Massis.

Directors criticized

Carlos Miguel Aidar and Leco, former presidents of Tricolor, were targets of criticism from protesters as they left the council building.

Aidar's case was the most tumultuous. On foot, in front of the building, the former president was harassed by a group of fans. One of them even called Aidar a “scoundrel.” Another, who tried to be more lenient, stated that the fans have not forgotten the scandals of his administration, which ended in 2015.

Leco, on the other hand, was in a car and rolled down the driver's window to talk to the fans. The protesters stated that they are “keeping an eye” on the intentions and movements of the former president.

Finally, Olten Ayres, one of the main targets of the fans, did not want to talk to the protesters and sped away, almost running over one of the fans.
