NEWS BITS….FIRST LOSS

By: Giuseppe | Comments No Comments

This past weekend Palermo was handed their first defeat to Serie B side Lecce. The final result was 3-2. Matteini scored the first goal, and Simplicio had goal two off of a PK in the second half. I could sit here and brood about the fact that we didn’t win, but i’m not and theres [...]

HOLY SH*T!!!

By: Giuseppe | Comments 11 Comments

I sure hope enough people read my blog page to get what I’m about to post. I was doing my daily net surfing, and was checking on the AC Milan Page, since they seem to be one of the only Serie A team that also updates their english site. Today, July 26 was the launch [...]

Palermo win 3-1

By: Giuseppe | Comments 2 Comments

Palermo defeated Austrian side FC Kaernten earlier today 3-1. For those keeping track, that’s 2 more goals for Miccoli and a notch for Brienza.
Colantuono broke out my favorite line up for the match, the 4-4-2. I have to say I REALLY like the players he started on the pitch.

PRE-SEASON SCHEDULE

By: Giuseppe | Comments 3 Comments

Palermo continues it’s pre-season training at the “world-famous hot spring and ski place bath Kleinkirchheim in Kärnten”. I was complaining in my last post about not being able to find screens of the 2008 Kits (what I’ve seen looks fake) and not being able to locate a preseason schedule. Well I found one, so hear [...]

GOAL FESTIVAL!!!!!!!! 15-0

By: Giuseppe | Comments No Comments

Sorry, if you havn’t noticed I tend to disappear during the weekend. I was also incorrect about Palermo’s first game being against Lecce on the 29th…do have sympathy-you have NO idea how much time i’ve spent looking for a pre-season schedule, any way to watch these games, or 2008 KITS. Anyhow, Palermo had their first [...]

More on the Cavani Out

By: Giuseppe | Comments 5 Comments

OK, when I said I though Bojinov kicked ass in FIFA 2007 and we should sign him I was partially kidding.
This morning some of my Italian sources report that there is a possible trade in the works, Edinson Cavani for Valeri Bojinov. Hmm, interesting. I like Cavani a lot, i’ve stated multiple times He’s [...]

Palermo “armors” Cavani from the onslaught of the Milan

By: Giuseppe | Comments 2 Comments

The other day Gianfranco mentioned in the AC MILAN BLOG that Gallalini was after a special, yet unknown striker who may not even be European. That striker was our very own Edinson Cavani, surprised? The babelfish translation is “Palermo “armors” Cavani from the onslaught of the Milan”. It’s stated that Zamparini does not have current [...]

Palermo Vs. Lecce 7/29/07

By: Giuseppe | Comments 1 Comment

There’s nothing about this match on the Palermo home site, but it is on fan site rosanerohome.it and the Lecce official webpage. I hope it’s televised. I’ve personally been suffering watching every agonizing moment of the Chicago Fire so I could use a little dash of Italian calcio to re-invigorate my spirits. (though the U20 [...]

By: Giuseppe | Comments 1 Comment

Well, the worst news that can be imagined:
It doesn’t look like Amauri will be ready by the start of the season
According to GOAL.COM Palermo is turning up the heat in it’s striker hunt. This is one hell of an omen, for what seemed thus far to be a pretty good transfer season something frightening comes [...]
