The President of the Sardinian club was quizzed and later answered the reasons behind the recent firings of their coaches, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Davide-c10638 Ballardini and Roberto Donadoni.
Massimo Cellino has been notorious for his short temper with the coaches he hires for his club. Cellino along with Maurizio Zamparini of Palermo are famous for the number
of coaches they have fired under their tenure.
The Isolani patron was addressing students at a Sardinian university in which he gave his views on many subjects surrounding the club and what he feels about certain issues.
There was heavy debate on the pending issue of the Rossoblu playing their home games in Cagliari, but disputes with the town authorities, meant that Cellino had to arrange for their home matches to be played in Trieste. The distance between the two places
is 600 miles, which has been a cause of concern for the Isolani fans who have to travel away for their club’s home matches.
The discussion led to the predicament of dismissals with Massimo Cellino and he was questioned why he fired Donadoni and Ballardini. Donadoni’s Parma will be facing off
his former employers as the two sides clash over the weekend; Donadoni had been dismissed by Cellino before the season started. He further elaborated on his decision to dismiss the former http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Italy-c2926 national team boss, and commented:
“The first was fired for inappropriate use of a company computer. That’s all I can say. The latter lacked style when appearing in the stands at Bergamo on the day of our
defeat against Atalanta. In addition, the next day he left for New York when he was still being paid by us.”
The patron stated that such actions were unfathomable and it justified his decision of not paying the manager, and he further stated:
“I’m unable to tolerate this kind of behaviour, the facts determined themselves so as to warrant us not paying him the last few months of his salary that he should have
received before moving to Parma.”
Cagliari had been doing well, however a number of disappointing results through the course of the season has seen them drop closer to the relegation zone in the Serie A
standings.The disappointing set of results saw Davide Ballardini getting the axe from Cellino.
