Quick reminder: Catania Sucks

By: Steven | Comments 34 Comments

As we all await the Livorno-debacle and I’m covered in work, Catania have just reached the Coppa Italia semi-finals. Yes, I know, the portal to Hell is STILL open. May I remind you people that Catania sucks harder than a fuckin’ Hoover? I just can’t get my mind to process this…how ’bout some action boys, [...]

Open Letter to Il Presidente

By: Steven | Comments 18 Comments

Dear Presidente Zamparini,
I think I speak on behalf of a lot of US Palermo-tifosi when I say that things can’t go on like this. This team is full of potential, but lately we seem to be playing like we’re still in Serie C. I know we’re not one of the rich teams up North, but [...]

Preview: Roma – Palermo

Stadio Olimpico, Roma
As you probably all know, things have gone from bad to worse the last couple of weeks. Therefore, I have decided on a silent protest. No big preview this week, as I’ve been telling the same story for weeks nows. No ‘we need to pick up the pace’-talk, no predictions, [...]

It’s Crazy Zampa-time, and Some Good News as well.

By: Steven | Comments 11 Comments

As Martha already said, Zampa has gone crazy again. And we all love it when he goes crazy, don’t we?
According to Capt’n Crazy, Guidolin is not to blame for the recent lack of wins and above average performances. It’s all the fault of the players. In the article that was posted on ControCampo (not the [...]

Review: Worthless Fuck-Ups versus Siena

By: Steven | Comments 9 Comments

Dear fellow Palermitani,
I have had enough. Another loss against a team’s that worth nothing more than a Serie B-seat next year, another lousy performance, another drop down the table. I don’t wanna spend my time on reviewing this shit today, especially after Martha’s fine work.
Palermo were all over Siena in the wake of the goal, [...]

So, we stank up the last games. Time for a change. If I’d be in charge, I’d dump Capuano, Biava and Guana and start Cassani, Rinaudo and Caserta. Too bad I’m not in charge, and we all known Guido is sticking to his three friends. Also, [...]

Ti Mancheremo, raggazzo…

By: Steven | Comments 6 Comments

So…after Corini, another Palermo-monument leaves the club. Eight years, been in C1, B and A with the team, 170+ games, our most loyal player on the team…it ends today. Brienza moves to Reggina, altough there’s still doubt on the matter. Some media say he’s sold, others talk about Reggina acquiring him on loan. I’ll miss [...]

Review: Four Days Of Hell

By: Steven | Comments 6 Comments

So…what’s there to say about what happened on Sunday against Sampdoria, and this afternoon in the Coppa against Udinese? Nothing really. The game against Samp was just terrible: everything we tried failed, and everything Samp did worked. I mean, that second goal, how lucky can you be? Or even better: how hard can your defense [...]

So, a new year…let’s hope we’ll get some more wins than in 2007. The good thing is that the squad is fully fit, and the atmosphere is pretty good after some easy exhibition games and a week in the Andalusian sun. The only one who’s trying to cause [...]

I’ll take your Foggia for my Cry-Baby

By: Steven | Comments 16 Comments

As we speak, the squad is preparing for tomorrow’s slaughtering of the Betis Sevilla B-team, and that gives Maurizio Zamparini the time to speak. It seems that, when Lazio and Palermo sat at the table this summer to discuss the ‘Makinwa has really, really, really got to stay away from Palermo’-issue, the teams talked more [...]
