The grotesque surrealism of Gil and Cerezo

-The tragedy is our tragedy.

- For something that will be!

- The grotesque!

Fragment of Luces de Bohemia, play by Valle-Inclan, a paradigm of absurdity

A few days ago that the twelfth anniversary of December 22 when the court intervened Audiencia Nacional Atletico Madrid. Put an end to the Age Gil, it seemed. The trio formed by Jesus Gil, his son Miguel Ángel and Enrique Cerezo fell off a barrage of accusations. However, the process was extended in time until 2004, after so many laps in the case of the shirts, all fell by the wayside. The chiefs resumed their thrones, rejoicing at the grotesque reality: not everything was back as the beginning of the process, but more than now returning to their positions legitimized by the judicial system.

When in 2004 the author of philosophical statements of the caliber of My mistake was to treat the players as people, or If I say black, no problem, But if I say black black black, is very bad ..., took over the reins of Athletic Madrid, for many mattress was only one consolation: At least, we can not get worse. They were wrong. Yes there was something worse than Jesus Gil y Gil, Sultan of Marbella, a two-headed entity arising from the combination of his clever son, Miguel Angel with graciosete Enrique Cerezo. The pure absurdity.

Together they form an abstract being much more harmful than bad imitator of Nero that it was Jesus Gil. In his hands Atletico Madrid has remained a money wasting machine, gobble coaches, templates devalue and destroy illusions. Each year you repeat the same pattern, defined by Ruben fantastically Uriah champions especially in August, applicants in September, lower in October, November, and zombies disaster in December.

The triumphs of 2010, the UEFA European Super League and Europe, have emerged as the mirage of an oasis in the desert. Not that there is no value, let alone, to Caesar what is Caesar in football is no free lunch. But those titles, which in turn led to a joy that the mattress did not know from almost three decades, have now moved to increase the trauma. Not made ​​or year and a half that Atletico won those titles, but the destructive capacity of Gil and Cerezo has returned to the club Manzanares delve into a chaos. How do you get to this point only a year and a half after success in Europe?

Cerezo Gil and Atletico are devouring from the inside, with the perverse determination of the worst cancer. Metastases have caused and extends in all directions and affects everything. The waste of money has reached the point where Atletico Madrid, this is your hobby, by the way has lost its mythical stadium. The Aleti leave the Vicente Calderon and goes to the comb, compact urban by. But this step is not to improve, as they have wanted to sell, but to survive. There was no alternative to get money with which to address the accumulated debt. After selling what they want, but that's the truth.

The tragedy, which to them is not tragedy but grotesque, is that he made ​​up to 35 coaching changes in 20 years. The penultimate, Gregorio Manzano has been none, despised and bitched, become a sports body several weeks before his dismissal. Manzano's last days were no one deserves: Gil hidden Caminero Cherry and ratified in a position so unconvincing that every word was a step in its death sentence. That said, Apple also has its share of guilt, do not say in sports, in that I do not go, but in politics and their relationships with club owners, knew where he got: Oh, Manolete, if you can not fight bulls pa what you get!

Seeing again the subject of the songs (I'm up to the eggs / Family Gil! And Enrique Cerezo, we want your neck!), Like all tyrants in history, Gil and Cerezo have pulled demagoguery and opted for Diego Simeone , a smoke screen to delude the fans a little bit with the bench and look at both the stop box. For the sake of Aleti, hopefully they will come out as well as Guardiola went to Laporta. El Cholo need to accompany him luck. Experience tells us that few coaches, very few, not scalded out of your experience with Gil and Cerezo.

Gil and Cerezo Cerezo and Gil. A cyst that had to be removed yesterday. There is no other solution. The Atletico fans have to make them out once and for all. The company is not easy, because legally own a majority stake in society. The be obtained from an obscure way, but while a judge says otherwise, are the owners of the club. Not for me to say what to do and how. The only thing I can think of is that the cry of Calderón becomes unbearable for Gil and Cerezo. In any case, much will have to shout the red and white fans because Gil and Cerezo, Cerezo and Gil, just that we just hear the jingle in their pockets.
