Fernando Jaramillo announced that he is leaving the presidency of the Dimayor. He will do it in a few months, when the championship ends, when he leaves a long-established and insured Women’s League. As happened with his predecessor, Jorge Enrique Vélez, the now increased opposition, but not the majority, manages to cut off his head as a reward for his particular desire, while the structural reforms of professional football are not addressed.
collecting enmities
As I wrote in this same column a few months ago, Jaramillo was collecting personal dislikes with various clubs.
And in football we know well that this is expensive. His role in the death and resurrection of Cúcuta, his reaction (absolutely justified) against the embarrassing case of the promotion party Union Magdalena and Llaneros, lift sanctions for some causing an unprecedented event such as the simultaneous and joint resignation of the disciplinary commissions, the mess of the Medellín match in Montería, the decision to make a second Women’s League without being approved or planned, the inverted locality of a match… In short: he was collecting enmities.
They will say that it is the exercise of the administrator, quite logically, but the dimajor, for knowing it should be silent, it has its own logics (rather illogical) in which any decision almost has to be taken almost by the assembly. Unusual. Not even in an apartment building does that happen. And each decision made by the administration is considered by those affected as a reason for revenge, until accounts are settled making governance impossible to overthrow the president. Well, before, recently, they had already knocked down the manager…
And as long as they lick their lips at the idea of handling the TV money (including the future new sale of international rights, the real marrow of the matter) and whether or not to take advantage of each other, we’re still at it.
President under board of directors regime?
Now, they say, the idea of having a president under a board of directors regime is making its way. A cosmetic solution. They have been telling that story for years: remember the famous ‘G8’, the group of teams that wanted the same thing…
Because the real reforms must be, I repeat, structural: how to generate new resources, how to distribute TV money in a logical and proportionate manner, as is the case in all the major leagues in the world, how to achieve real management and serious governance in the of decisions without charging vendettas when the determinations are not to the liking of a club president or owner, how to invest the money in the clubs themselves to strengthen their infrastructure (their own sports venues), how to create a policy of minor divisions with tournaments between they…
There is more: reforms such as making a lasting Women’s League, how to combat the ever-present threats of match-fixing, how to make a championship that is more competitive and profitable, structuring a championship system that, in addition to being emotional, allows for greater quality, how to raise the level sports of the Leaguehow to be a true guild that acts for the common benefit and in search of its improvement and not a pack that attacks itself!
Fernando Jaramillo will leave as he said and another will come who, surely, will end up the same as president of an assembly or of a board of directors that charges him for each decision at the head of the team that feels affected or is affected.
Meanwhile, the League remains the same, the clubs remain the same and the underlying issues remain the same: that is, very, very deep down.
