“Palermo, 50 thousand indictment approaches,” read the newspaper headlines. Corriere dello Sport.
Fee 50 thousand. These are the kind of spectators who could come to Barbera, adding to those present for the next two matches against Spezia and Lecco. At the moment, this is just a forecast, supported by an objective fact, namely the building of a new relationship between the team and the public. Palermo has found its people again.
Having overcome the disappointment of failing to reach the play-offs last season, Rosanero fans have turned the page and, drawn by the very high standard of the signing campaign and the excellent results achieved in this first segment of the championship by a group that has raised the bar of ambition, they are back rallied around Corini’s team. In such a context, and in general in a place like Palermo, which thrives on enthusiasm and which needs little to “ignite”, the social factor should not be underestimated. Four of the next five matches will be played at home and fans can play a very important role, potentially proving to be a valuable ally to the team.
After the break, the mini-cycle will open with a double home round against La Spezia and Lecco. The parties are sold out also because the first match will take place at night (Monday, October 23, at 20.30), and the second on Sunday afternoon (29th, at 16.15). While waiting for the answers that the pre-sale will provide, it is easy to imagine a large turnout based primarily on the trend of the beginning of the season with Barbera, which in 3 matches recorded a total of 73,076 spectators and 24,359 spectators. places the Rosaneros in first place in the B rankings in terms of average viewership at home matches. The number of season ticket holders has now been finalized (12,603, but Sampdoria has more), but the number of paying players will increase. Along with the hardcore, which has always been focused on the unseen view of the team, there is an expanding segment of fans who are ready to trust Palermo regardless of the name of the opponent. This is called a sense of belonging and is another sign of affection for flowers, if recent examples are anything to go by.
