Napoli preparing for a third scudetto and huge party. Meanwhile there are preparations for both Milanese clubs to move away from the San Siro. All about greed and corporatism. More expensive tickets to price out the regular fans and more corporate boxes. I particularly like the comments from one of those fighting to save San Siro and other parts of Milan. We don't want to see a city filled with McDonalds and the same identikit soulless urbanscape of the same retail chains.
Well that's a surprise! The Old Lady have their points deduction removed. Back to third and a CL spot. Odd thing.
Was there a couple of weeks ago for the second time. Never been in any city as fanatical about their football club as Napoli. Mental city, much better craic than Milan or anywhere up north, and you'll never look at pizza the same after eating it there!
On the first visit yes, but you don't have to go far to find him, he's on almost every street either cardboard cutouts, wax figurines, graffiti or other murals, locks of his hair in glass boxes hung up beside religious shrines. The level of adoration almost helps understand why fans went on hunger strike after rumours Napoli couldn't quite meet the fee Barcelona wanted for him, and why Napoli fans supported Argentina when they played Italy in the WC semi final at Italia 90!
Udinese picking up their 2nd win of the season. Now 3 points clear of relegation, well providing Sassuolo and Verona don’t win today.
Ah,dear old Hellas! Better off than the 'Flying Donkeys' Chievo Verona, who are no longer in existence. Shame.
Ah what happened to Chievo ? I remember they held their own in the top flight for a few seasons on tiny gates, the Wimbledon of Serie A.
That's correct. Apparently they folded as they couldn't pay their tax bill, sometime around 2016 I think. No, just checked. 2021. Such a shame.
Fix! Fiorentina take world's worst penalty. Meaning Inter stay above Juve,who Viola despise. Very suspicious.
