Juan Román Riquelme gave an interview with El Canal de Boca within hours of the historic flag in the vicinity of La Bombonera. More than 30 thousand fans came to the legendary stadium on Sunday afternoon to ask for the elections that are suspended due to a precautionary measure.

The Xeneize idol and candidate for president gave his testimony about what happened in the last hours after the decision of Judge Alejandra Abrevaya, who had been in charge of suspending the event that was going to take place on Sunday, December 3, to depart from the cause after the recusal requested by the ruling party.
In this way, the magistrate will temporarily stop intervening in the case and, after the draw, Analía Romero will be in charge of the judicial process. The judge is the deputy of Civil Court No. 64 and must ratify the ruling (which would cause the vote to be in 2024) or rectify it, which could open a new scenario for the vote in Brandsen 805.

”I love my club and my country. I trust in Justice. My children love this country and this club. Today is a very important day for Boca fans. Yesterday was strange because it was wonderful if we could enjoy the elections. Now the judge in charge changed and Analía Romero remained, who in 2013 along with her husband and her children became members of the club. And if they did, it must be regulatory. If so, I understand that when Analía looked at her papers she saw that everything was in order. If she accepted being a judge, she means that we are going to have elections,” Riquelme stated.
“We want her, her husband and her son and the remaining 51,473 to be able to vote. We want everyone to vote. We are lucky with the judge since when she accepts she believes that everything is in order. That’s why I think we’re going to have elections. If the judge accepted it is because it will be like that,” Román insisted in relation to the new magistrate appointed in the case.

Following the mobilization of the fans last Sunday, Riquelme stated: “Yesterday was incredible and it does not surprise us at all because the Boca fans are incredible. But we must also remember that they took away the possibility of experiencing a party, of stepping on our grass, of voting, and everything was ready with the tents. I ask the fans that we not stay with what happened yesterday. It was an unforgettable day, because one is lucky to live those moments that are unique, I am a fan like all Bosteros, but, please, we cannot relax for a second because Mr. Mauricio Macri wants to intervene in the club and then He wants to tear up the club and sell it to his friend. All we want is to vote. Why don’t we vote? The Statute has remained the same since 1999 and who was the only one who signed? Mauricio Macri. From there it is always the same.”

“I try to live normally, think a lot and I am lucky to be here in this beautiful stadium. Every time I arrive at Parque Lezama my heart beats. I am happy that the case fell to this judge. What all of us want is to be able to experience a party. Everything is prepared and it is beautiful, it is the least that Boca fans deserve every four years. There is a Statute and I see that they do not give it much importance. It was not modified and we have to respect it, which says that after a year no one can take away your right to vote. And we ask that everyone vote, if they are all Boca fans. “We want to experience an unforgettable party on the playing field,” she continued.
There is only one weekend available in the remainder of the year, since next Sunday the 10th the inauguration of the new elected president of the Nation, Javier Milei, will take place, and the last two are marked by the celebration of Christmas Eve and Christmas, and for the New Year celebrations. Otherwise, the elections will have to happen in 2024, with a date to be defined by justice. It is important to note that Boca’s statute indicates that it must notify one month in advance of the day on which the vote will be held.
As published by Infobae, the ruling party pointed out that the judge’s resolution had been true nonsense and that it violated all current legal provisions. Faced with this scenario, and waiting for the new judge to take charge of the situation, it will be necessary to see if the elections can finally be held next Sunday the 17th.
In the appeal, the ruling party expressed that the case regarding the irregularities in the registry of the more than 13 thousand contested members is tailored to what the opposition asked of it and that Boca’s right to defense was violated, since they were incorporated three testimonies in his statements that were never transferred to the defense of the institution to be able to answer them.
Other phrases from Riquelme in dialogue with El Canal de Boca:
His talk with Carlos Bianchi: “I was lucky to play for this club, to have the best coach in the history of Argentine football (Bianchi). Now we have to take care of the club. You have to be aware that the fan can come to vote every four years. I talk to Carlos constantly and the day before yesterday he said ‘I love you’ to me. Yesterday they made an excuse not to vote. Carlos loves me very much. ‘Román, the only thing I ask of you, defend as you are doing, that no one can take away the fan’s right to vote.’ Bianchi told me that he is the greatest thing about this club.”
The persecution of his brother: “Maybe it was on purpose so that I wouldn’t show up. My brother is similar to me. If he brings a friend I don’t know, from then on he is also my friend. It’s a rule we have. We are people from Don Torcuato who have normal vices of drinking mate and eating barbecue. Having him (my brother) closer every day is a beautiful experience. Afterwards we are used to being attacked. It’s not easy for them to follow us, for them to steal your computer. We have to continue and we want to enjoy the party that the fans want.”
Message to the opposition: “Ibarra, no matter how stupid he plays, he was always part of the opposition. If we go back to normal, there will be elections. But you have to leave the judge alone. We have everything prepared and we want everyone to vote because they are all idiots. We all have the right to vote after one year. “We want the Statute to be fulfilled.”
“The field that Messi stepped on recently and told me ‘the field was getting prettier and prettier.’ And now you have to listen to something awful from this Mr. Ibarra. Yesterday would have been a perfect party for Boca fans.”
“The figure is beautiful because it gives us the possibility of surpassing the 57 thousand who voted in Barcelona. Our Statute says that after one year the member can vote. “I will always trust in the justice of this country because I am going to die in this country.”
“We sleep little, but we love our club. We have a great squad even though Ibarra disrespects our players. We have things clear, the road is going well, the Property must be one of the most beautiful in South America. We took the largest pool in Ezeiza, I say this with pain because it always flooded. They never congratulated us for anything, every day was hard.”
“We are sad because they are hurting our club a lot, this is the most beautiful club in the world. These people are hurting him a lot. I ask the fan to please not relax, because Maurucio Macri wants to intervene in our club. That’s what the fan has to say when he goes to sleep, when he washes his face and looks in the mirror, thinking like that every day. “Mauricio Macri wants to intervene in the club.”
“Their lawyer says I never asked for a suspension and there are the papers where they ask for the suspension, Macri says Román is lying and in the same sentence he says it’s true, I asked him to give Qatar’s nine five minutes in the Argentine Cup.”
“We cannot relax, this man wants to intervene in the club. We ask that the Statute be respected, anyone who has been there for more than a year has every right to vote. We want everyone to vote, as it should be. I hope the judge allows us to enjoy that party.”
The appointment of the new judge, Analía Romero: “Now it fell into the hands of Analía and she is going to let all the Boca fans vote, as we have no problem coming any day. We love our club. The fans are the owners of the club, we lend the field to the players.”
