"It is forbidden to sell tickets to those born in Campania". With the restrictions currently in force, not even the Prefect of Turin, the Neapolitan Claudio Palomba, could buy a ticket for the challenge with Juventus on August 31st. It is a completely theoretical consideration, because the Prefect - that is the maximum responsible on the territory of public safety - will not need to buy a coupon if he wants to coordinate the work of the police directly from the Stadium that evening, which they imagine in proportionate numbers at the critical level that the tender offers. Very high, therefore worthy of adequate restrictions. Waiting to have provisions from the Observatory on the safety of sporting events - which causes August vacation has failed to fix its meeting before August 21, just ten days from the race -, Juventus has decided to do it by itself, enlarging the audience of the recipients of the restrictions: tickets (for sectors reserved for the bianconeri, the Guest one will be subject to further evaluation) forbidden to residents and - an absolute novelty - to those born in Campania. Open up the sky.
CLARIFICATIONS - The Turin Police Headquarters yesterday hastened to specify the unilateral nature of the decision: neither shared nor shared. Clarification that Juventus considered unusual, and to which he replied by publishing the pec with which he notified the ticket sales procedures to the police on Sunday. A communication which was not followed by any response, therefore the Juventus club felt entitled to proceed. The choice has displaced the authorities, which the club claims to have informed, even if not officially, even before Sunday. Police Headquarters and the Observatory probably did not think that the club would come to make such a decision without first going through an official meeting.
REACTIONS - Many illustrious Neapolitans yesterday gave vent to their indignation. Salvatore Esposito, Genny in the famous television series Gomorra, talks about "disgust, shame and sadness". The Municipality of Naples accuses Juventus of "social and territorial discrimination". But at the base of the choice made by the Juventus club there is, at most, an excess of security. How did that say? Prevention is better than cure. And anyway, Juve says, "the sales methods may change"
