Follow incidents live:

“I’ll tell you about the results when I find out, at the end. In terms of membership, it is good to see that the partners are concerned about Sporting. I am calm as always, ”he told reporters.

19.30: Voting is closed. Remember that participants in the queue at this time still have the right to vote.

18.31 o’clock: the participants’ performances end. Voting will last until 19.30.

18.25 hours. Salgado Zenha, in charge of the financial sector, provided some clarifications to the partners.

“As for the material uncertainty, it does not exist in the club, but in the SAD. And, unfortunately, throughout the history of SAD, there has almost always been something that we have been catching up to over the years. The only time the auditor announced there were significant risks to the going concern of SAD in the summer of 2018 for reasons known to us. [invasão à Academia de Alcochete]… Yes, that was the worst moment. Regarding the revised accounts, we came to vote on exactly the same accounts because we carefully reassessed those accounts and received a new statement from auditors who were confident in their certification. There were no changes, a re-audit will not be required, ”he concluded.

18.02: The last phase of the competition begins.

17.30: A new break in the General Meeting. At 18:00 the last phase begins, in which the participants are given the opportunity to speak.

17.20: Luis Gestas, a former member of the Board of Directors of Bruno de Carvalho, said: “I am here for my belligerent duty in Sporting, out of respect for you and respect for the history of this club. And out of respect for this story, I will not pay any attention to the work of this governing body. Let’s leave the main criticism when we discuss the election programs. In a few months we will have elections, and then we will discuss projects and people. I will vote for the budget because Sporting’s accounts should come first. The conditions deserve it. “

17:15: Filipe Soares Franco, President of Sporting from 2005 to 2009, spoke to reporters while in line. “I don’t believe the accounts are not approved. The partners are aware of the excellent work that President Varandas’s team is doing. These reports need to be approved, ”he said, responding to criticism of the current Office:“ I don’t understand, this is something that needs to be done at the end of the term, not sooner. Moreover, if the accounts are correct, there is no reason for refusal. “

I came to answer several questions they asked me directly, in addition to those answered by Francisco Zenha. There was a common denominator, which is important to clarify. Today, SAD’s debt to the club of € 20 million was mentioned several times. Rumors often become public knowledge, this is a lie, and then people are convinced that a lie told many times will make it true, but it will never be true. This is not 20 million euros, this is 300 thousand euros “
