The National Association of Referees of Football (ANAF) wishes to paralyze the Brazilian Championship. According to the entity, the competition "is in check" after accusations by John Textor, owner of SAF do Botafogo, about manipulation of results.What happened?
ANAF stated that there are dissatisfied referees willing to protest in the next rounds of the Brasileirão. The entity issued a note signed by president Salmo Valentim.
She also criticized the president of the CBF Ednaldo Rodrigues and the president of the arbitration commission Wilson Seneme. The organization accuses Ednaldo of not paying the salaries of the female referees and sees Seneme as "unprepared to be in the position he assumed without any plan".
"For the good of football, the Brasileirão needs to be stopped! And a good thing A number of referees are willing to give this cry for freedom because they can no longer tolerate such indifference and disregard from the president of the CBF who, out of respect for football, should be ashamed and resign", says an excerpt from the ANAF note.
The ANAF demonstration takes place the day after John Textor's testimony at the Games Manipulation CPI. The director also presented the Good Game reports which, according to him, support the accusations of manipulation in the Brasileirão matches.
See the ANAF note in full"The referees need to unite and stop the Brazilian Championship; competition is in check after Textor's accusations that put the VAR under suspicion
There is no other way: it is necessary to stop the Brasileirão 2024 before make the VAR a police case. I have received countless calls from dissatisfied referees and there is already a large group that wants, in protest to what is happening, to interrupt the Brazilian championship in the next rounds.
All of this is happening. thanks to a horror show where the main protagonist is the former retired president of the CBF, Ednaldo Rodrigues, who is more concerned about his large salary at the entity, than, for example, in pay the referees who are working for free for the CBF. Since last year, female referees have acted without pay in several national women's tournaments. This clearly shows the setback that his management causes to Brazilian football and refereeing.
I have already said a few times that Wilson Seneme is unprepared to be in the position he took on without any plans. By the way, what is his academic background?
You don't need to be an expert on the subject to attest that the former director of referees at Conmebol, dismissed after pressure from some countries, out of common sense, given everything we are going through seeing and living, at the very least it should be removed. He has no command and made Brazilian arbitration reach rock bottom, being exposed in the Federal Senate by an inconsequential leader who, even without evidence, insists on saying that Brazil has referees who manipulate results. This not only puts the VAR under suspicion, but can also cause serious damage to the image of the refereeing.
For the good of football, the Brasileirão needs to be stopped! And a good number of referees are willing to give this cry for freedom because they can no longer tolerate such indifference and disregard from the president of the CBF who, out of respect for football, should be ashamed and resign!"
