Victor Angelescu, the minority shareholder of Rapid, analyzed immediately after the match the banners displayed by the Giulesti fans on the National Arena, at the match with Dinamo, Finished with victory, score 1-0.
Some of the fans of the Rapid continued the “war” with the club management and especially with Victor Angelescu, as a result of the incidents of the last period, the behavior of the fans, who threw firecrackers and other pyrotechnic materials, costing the club with fines and closed gates.
After Angelescu announced that all those who harm the Rapid will be identified, the fans were not satisfied and protested, entering the stands later at the match with Metal Buzău and the one with Dinamo, on Sunday evening.
In addition, several banners with hard messages, most of them against Angelescu, were displayed in the rapid lawn.
Victor Angelescu, not impressed by the banners displayed by the fans of Rapid
“I made a very good game, at least in the first half and until the 70-75 minute. After that, we retired a little, and they had one or two occasions. Overall, I played better. I would have liked to register once more, to be more relaxed. Important is that I won and that I took the 3 points.
(no about the banners in the stands against him) I do not take them in any way. I'm glad they didn't throw themselves with bombs or other objects. That's it, I'm happy. It's their opinion, I don't understand exactly the message. I had a meeting three weeks ago with all the members of the gallery. Then they said it was the club's duty to identify the respective persons and not allow them to access the stadium.
They suggested to us and to identify them and not bring pyrotechnic materials. They came, they encouraged the team. It's a democratic country, everyone says what he wants. I am glad that no firecrackers were thrown and we can play with the spectators and the next match. The firecrackers were not thrown by our fans, but by Dinamo. It's not a war with them. I said clearly: as long as the pyrotechnic materials are forbidden, they are not allowed to throw them.
I can do the set designs, but without throwing in the field. It's not that I don't like a torch, but that's the law. By throwing, they do not affect us, but to them, because they can no longer enter the matches. From my point of view, there is no war. This is the law, and as long as it does not change, it must be respected.
Perhaps, in the future, changes will be made to Law 4, to allow the use of pyrotechnic materials under certain conditions. About banners, I would not want to comment.
There was no personal decision to move the match. It was a request for the gallery. They wanted the lawn to be full of Dinamo fans when I played with them. In order to provide the whole lawn, we had to sign a protocol. I moved nothing. I could play Giulești, but the supporters wanted this reciprocity, “said Victor Angelescu, at the show” Football Club “, from Digi Sport, after the match.
