Second away match in a row, and the first match of Francesco Guidolin’s 4th term at the Palermo-helm. There are rumours that Guido is gonna start the same eleven as the ones that were wrecked by Juventus last sunday. Personally, I think he’s smarter than that. Miccoli is [...]

Derby Degli Empty Seats

By: Steven | Comments 18 Comments

Long live the Lega Calcio. Twenty guys and girls, average age 127, combined football intelligence none. This sorry bunch has decided that the Derby Della Sicilia will be played without tifosi of the biggest Sicilian team. No Palermitani in the stands of the Stadio Massimino, let’s hope those eleven pink shirts will shut up every [...]

Right, where’s that hidden camera?

You all know by now, thanks to Marco and Martha…Colantuono’s been sacked by the Big Man. Earlier today, I already felt something strange in the air, and that why I warned everyone: ‘And the first one to mention Capello or Guidolin gets shot.’
Well, in a sudden case of loss of brain functions, Zamparini announced Guidolin [...]

Shame, disgrace, anger, sack him…

I can honestly say that yesterday’s game against Juventus was the worst 90 minutes I have ever spent. Every single mistake we made resulted in a Gobbi-goal, we only took 4 shots, of which none in the first 45 minutes. Juve took 20, scored 5. Not bad. Before the game, i think we had a [...]

So, we had a two week rest and we’re still missing half the midfield. Good Ole’ Giulio will be back to conquer midfield again, but Caserta has gotten injured during the international matches. Wonder how, as I don’t see Retardo ever getting into Donadonadonadoni’s squad. Furthermore, Miccoli is also [...]

Lazy Wednesday Afternoon

By: Steven | Comments 14 Comments

So, what to talk about? The Azzurri are preparing to kick some Scottish arse, the Lega Calcio is still thinking about what to do after the riots this weekend, Juventus is calling Zamparini ten times a day to ask him to throw the game in exchange for two Fiat Bravo’s and a brand new New [...]

The Queen Of The South

By: Steven | Comments 31 Comments

It had been exactly 25 days since Napoli came to Palermo for a Serie A-game. Two wonderfull teams, two great cities with similar problems, two former parts of the Kingdom of Two Sicilies. And one hell of a game. First of all, there was the banner in the audience saying ‘Edy, Grazie Per Tutto’. Palermo-fans [...]

Shit. About half the midfield is gone: Bresciano, Miccoli and Migliaccio are injured, and Guana is banned. Which leaves us with Simplicio, Diana, Caserta and possibly Jankovic. Let’s hope it’s gonna be Jankovic, because we don’t want the alternative: Giovanni ‘my contract was extended because I was born [...]

Holy shit, what happened in Genova? It was an awesome game, but I’m still trying to figure out how we were able to survive the second half. All your juicy details after the jump!
