In previous elections for the presidency, not even half of Athletic members voted. In the last two extraordinary assemblies there was also a shortage of a large number of delegates (836 voted on one related to the animation grandstand and 765 on one referring to new laws out of a total of 1,206 possible). In the last Liga match in San Mamés, against Osasuna at 7:00 pm and with the rojiblanco team playing for their European options, public attendance rose to 37,689 people from a capacity of 53.33.
These and some other data relating to the participation of members in the life of the club should not be missed by the three candidates for the Ibaigane seat. It does not seem very logical to face an electoral process knowing that there is a risk that not even half of the comrades will go to the polls. Such small participation assumes that everything is a warning to navigators.
More than criticizing or questioning what has been done so far, it means recovering and building enthusiasm around Athletic, with members and fans more engaged in club life. The effects of the coronavirus pandemic go beyond health and economic outlook.
