Quienes somos? (Who are we?)

Bienvenidos al blog de la Peña de San Lorenzo “La Gloriosa” de Warwick, Inglaterra, la única peña de San Lorenzo en el Reino Unido, y según tenemos entendido, la única del fútbol argentino por estas tierras.

Somos un grupo de cuervos que vivimos en alguna parte del Reino Unido (Inglaterra, Escocia, Gales e Irlanda del Norte) o en Irlanda del Sur, y compartimos la misma pasión por nuestro amado Ciclón. La peña se originó con dos propósitos en mente. Primero, para tener un punto de encuentro, físico o cibernético, entre todos los que compartimos la pasión por San Lorenzo y vivimos en alguna de estas islas del Norte. Segundo, para contribuir a diseminar la religión Sanlorencista por estas tierras. Tenemos como objetivo bautizar a cuanta persona con potencial para ser un cuervo de ley exista en estas islas, sin importar su nacionalidad, raza o género. Por esta razón y para captar el interés de nuevos cuervos que no hablen español, gran parte de la página estará escrita en inglés.

Nuestro "Headquarter" se encuentra en Warwick, pueblo histórico del condado de Warwickshire, Inglaterra. Está ubicado a orillas del río Avon, y posee una población de 25,434 habitantes (según el censo de 2001) y se encuentra a 18 kms al sur de Coventry y 4 kms al oeste de Leamington Spa. Si vivís en UK o estas de paso por estas tierras y sos cuervo, unite a nosotros! cuervosdeuk@yahoo.com.ar

English version

Welcome to the San Lorenzo FC Warwick Supporters’ Club

We are the first San Lorenzo FC supporters’ club in the United Kingdom and as far as we know, the first Argentine football team supporters’ club in the UK.

We are a group of San Lorenzo supporters who live somewhere in the UK and Ireland. We share the same passion for our beloved team (which by the way it is the current Argentine champion). Our two main purposes are: a) to have a meeting point - either physical or cybernetic – among all of us who feel the pride and passion of being a “cuervo (crow)” and b) to welcome anyone who wants to join the big and creative group of San Lorenzo supporters in the world, regardless his/her nationality, ethnicity, religion and gender.

Our headquarters are at Warwick, but you can join us regardless where you live. Contact us at: cuervosdeuk@yahoo.com.ar

Bernardo Romeo Could Return To San Lorenzo



Osasuna striker Bernardo Romeo has announced his intentions to return to his native Argentina to play for former club San Lorenzo de Almagro.

Romeo confessed his desire to return to the Argentine champions, and said that Osasuna is likely to agree to release him in the next few days.

“I want to return because there [at San Lorenzo] I experienced my best moments”, said the Argentine.

Romeo, who started his career at Estudiantes de La Plata, helped Argentina win the U-20 World Cup in 1997, but hasn't been given much of a chance to impress for the senior national team.

He is seen as a San Lorenzo idol after helping the club win both the Clausura Championship and the Copa Mercosur in 2001.

San Lorenzo manager Ramon Diaz has made clear his interest in the player, after the recent departure of star striker Ezequiel Lavezzi to Italian club Napoli.

“I have to present myself at Osasuna because on Saturday we will begin the preseason. I will go there because one year still remains in my contract, but when we come to an agreement with San Lorenzo I will take the first plane available and will join the squad no matter where it is”, Romeo commented.

He affirmed that he is looking forward to returning to his former club because at San Lorenzo he experienced his “best moments as a footballer, and the club did everything possible for him to return".

According to Romeo his agent is in Spain trying to resolve the situation as soon as possible. He also said both clubs are likely to come to an agreement during some time next week.
