Some members of one of the biggest organized supporters in the cruise gathered in front of Fox hole, the club’s training center, this Thursday, the 23rd. The reason for the meeting was a protest against the change in the visual identity of the mascot, Raposão. Screaming, the fans asked for the return of the old look.
Criticisms were left for ronaldoowner of the club, which was the target of protests and the subject of screams from fans. “Ronaldo, fat man, give the Fox back”, said the cheerleaders. Before that, other organizations commented on the changes in the visual identity of the mascot on social networks.
Cruzeiro changed the clothes, colors and main expressions of the two symbols of the club, Raposão and Raposinho. The organized crowd that promoted the protest published an official note, which said the change in appearance was “inadmissible” and took the opportunity to charge Cabuloso’s board, criticizing the management model that is being adopted.
“Raposão is the biggest mascot in Brazil, and he has always been present for his charisma, strength and seriousness, all at the same time. The changes made to the mascot are unacceptable, and only corroborate what we have been seeing for some time: the lack of synergy with the fans, who are now mere customers, and especially the lack of knowledge of many who are at the Club today about Cruzeiro and especially the crowd itselfwas part of the note.
In addition, on social media, many Cruzeiro fans criticized the new image of the mascots. Some called for the club to go back and scrap what was updated. Of course, the rivals did not forgive and mocked the change made with Raposão, who, according to the memes on the web, looked like a “Lulu from Pomerania”.
