Turmoil in the Lion's Den

This case portrays the events that followed SCP's main football team started to disappoint at the last stretch of the 2017/18 season, namely in the Europa League and the Portuguese League. There had been a great deal of investment in the main football team and its coach (the president's personal bet) since season 2015/16, but the results were lacking, both in the football field and financially. The climax soon started to become tense, and the amount of criticism and disbelief rose to such an extent that even SCP's president started posting public criticisms towards the football team's main players in his Facebook account, accusing them of lack of attitude and effort.
