Real Madrid Assembly To Be Re-Held On March 29

March 29 has been announced as the date that Real Madrid will re-hold the Assembly.

March 29 has been announced as the date that Real Madrid will re-hold the Assembly.

After the drama and reported scandal surrounding the Assembly last year at Real Madrid, a date has been set for it to be re-held today.

AS reports that the board of directors met this morning and have decided that it will be repeated on March 29.

That day will not feature any league matches, as it is a date reserved for international fixtures.

The same points that were raised at the previous Assembly will be repeated again, and also the clarification for Vicente Boluda to be provisional president.

It is thought that the club will try to ensure that this Assembly is more transparent, to prove that is done within the laws.

The scandal surrounding the previous Assembly was ultimately what cost Ramón Calderon is title as Real Madrid president, as he was shown to have lied about rigging the event.

Marca demonstrated that not only was the Assembly rigged, with non-voters allowed to vote for Calderon, but that the president also knew the guilty persons, despite saying he didn't.

Whilst this Assembly will not decide anything in terms of the president, there have been elections confirmed for the summer, when it is expected Florentino Perez will run again.
