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

Bilos Awaiting San Lorenzo Deal


The agent of Argentine midfielder Daniel Bilos told the press that the negotiations for the player to join the Argentine giants San Lorenzo next season are “difficult”, but he is still optimistic about its chances.

Hugo Issa, the agent who represents the midfielder, admitted that there are differences between both parties for the player to join the Argentine champions, but affirmed that the negotiations “will be resolved”.

What is delaying the transfer is that French club Saint Etienne, who are the owners of the player, “are making things difficult”, because they are asking for more money before loaning out the player to San Lorenzo.

At the moment Bilos, who stands at 1.94 meters, finds himself in Buenos Aires waiting for both clubs to come to an agreement over his future.

According to Issa the midfielder “wants to play for San Lorenzo”, but has left himself open to offers from other clubs.

“They have called us from lots of places, from Boca, Independiente. But the team that is most interested in acquiring the player’s services is San Lorenzo”, he said.

Issa is happy about the interest shown for Bilos by San Lorenzo manager Ramon Diaz, and concluded “for Ramon to want him is something to be very proud about”.
