As predicted...
By salvatore | April 21st, 2008The boys in Biancoceleste blew it against Catania yesterday. There seemed to be the wrong attitude going in, which spelled trouble, and with two expulsions added in for good measure, well, you have your defeat. The 9 man adventure started wh ...
Lazio - Catania
By salvatore | April 19th, 2008Because we can't really move up (and can't be relegated), motivation seems to be the key word leading up to tomorrow's clash with relegation battlers Catania. Basically, we have very little, and they have plenty. This kind of shit makes me si ...

By chris | March 17th, 2008UEFA Cup Spot(s) Sampdoria 3 - Catania 1: If you missed the train/bus, and didn't show up til the hour mark, you were totally cool, because the fireworks didn't start until the 68th. Four goals in the final 22, and you don't have to look at the scoreli
Fighting The Good Fight
By chris | March 11th, 2008It's kinda hard not to feel bad for teams which get relegated (unless they've been immersed in scandal, or something) or at least fight the good fight against the drop. Yes, they're professional athletes and most of their pay checks will buy them many, ma
Parma Now Accepting Applications
By chris | March 10th, 2008Mimmo Di Carlo has been canned by His Plumpness, Tommaso Ghirardi, making it the second time this year he's been given the boot (I apologize for that). The Gialloblu have won one whole game since Christmas, and are hovering above The Zone by the hair of t
Diamanti Are a Coach’s Best Friend
By Marco | March 2nd, 2008So much for that 5-3 high octane prediction i had. The game was far from dull, especially in the 2nd half but it didn't deliver a boatload of goals like i was expecting. At least we bounced out of the bottom *Wondergoal at bottom of the post Livorn

Sunday, Bloody Sunday
By chris | February 17th, 2008I promise not all weekend posts will reference classic songs. Some, not all. While it's nice to see all the big fellas get their Saturday in the sun, it's leaves much to be desired on Sunday, when The Other Sixteen get to dust off their booties and kic

Inter 2- 0 Catania, Surge In Sicily
By robert | February 11th, 2008Inter(2)-Catania(0) It was offsides. There you go, happy? There's no running from it, and I'm not going to try. All that I care about is that Inter racked up another win and stay eight points ahead of all those basement dwellers. (Yes, I consider sec
