The Lazio organized fan groups have confirmed their decision to continue to boycott the club’s home fixtures, in addition to taking several other measures in their ongoing protest against club president Claudio Lotito.

The Background

While the relations between the two parties have never been ideal, it has now reached its lowest point in the owner’s 22-year reign. The supporters have been urging the Italian senator to sell the club, accusing him of looking after his own interests rather than Lazio’s.

Therefore, they have been refusing to attend the club’s home fixtures since the end of January, with the only two exceptions being a Serie A fixture against AC Milan in March and the final of the Coppa Italia against Inter Milan last month.

Lazio Supporters Won’t Attend Home Fixtures Next Season

On Friday, the fan groups released a statement (via LazioNews24) explaining the steps they plan to take in the new campaign. The supporters will not buy season tickets or subscribe to the TV channels and online platforms that broadcast the club’s matches.

We will not purchase season tickets and will not attend home matches, whether in Serie A or the Coppa Italia. We are aware that we will lose the priority rights to seats we have occupied for decades, but we are no longer willing to accept this situation. We will be present only when we decide to be. For once, be consistent with the restrictions you have imposed over the past year and do not use the Curva Nord choreographies, self-financed by the supporters, in the season-ticket campaign.

The Fans Will Be Present for Lazio vs Roma Showdown

The fans intend to follow the team in their travels and attend the away fixtures. Moreover, they’re willing to make an exception for the Derby della Capitale against Roma, entering the stadium on both occasions.

We will be present at every away match, doing our best to support the players and make them understand that this situation is neither their fault nor that of the new coach, whom we welcome and ask to conduct himself in a manner worthy of the badge he will represent. We will be present at the derby matches, both home and away. We thought we were facing a fanbase with at least some degree of morale. Instead, they preferred to display banners and chant against an empty stand, proving exactly what they are: Romanista… Romanista. We will collectively cancel and will not renew subscriptions to any paid platform broadcasting Lazio matches, in order to further raise awareness within Italian football—both economically and visually—of the extremely serious situation affecting our beloved Lazio. We will gather to watch Lazio’s home matches in bars, restaurants and pubs run by our fellow Lazio supporters.

Lazio Fans Will Boycott Lotito’s Businesses & Political Party

Finally, the Lazio supporters intend to boycott any business linked, directly or indirectly, to Lotito and will not vote for his political party.

We will boycott any business, sponsor or commercial partner that supports this presidency. This boycott was not started by us, but by those who instructed Lazio members not to frequent businesses run by some of the club’s most prominent supporters. As long as Mr Lotito remains in charge of Lazio, we will not give our vote to Forza Italia or to any candidates he supports, even if they are Lazio supporters themselves. This decision has been brought about by Senator Lotito, who on several occasions chose to blur the line between his role as Lazio president and that of a Senator of the Republic, dragging politics into this dispute with the supporters.
