I am the Perez Hilton of Calcio

By: Steven | Comments 37 Comments

No, not because I’m slightly overweight, wear pink shirts and like to take it up the pooper (which I don’t), but because I bring you lots of rumours and gossip without any real sources!
As we all know by now, Milan has found a replacement for their fat, kinda gay lookin’, underperforming Brazilian. His replacement is, [...]

The End Of An Era

By: Steven | Comments 55 Comments

After seven years of (mostly) great transfers, Rino Foschi is out of Palermo. Not happy with the new role Zamparini wanted to give him, Foschi decided to leave. Not that he will be out of work: Genoa, Lazio, Bologna, Juventus and Livorno want him as their new DS as soon as possible. Let’s say goodbye [...]

Saturday Supermercato Stuff

By: Steven | Comments 97 Comments

Well, the least we can say is that Zamparini is having a blast on the transfermarket. Not that it’s all that good: Caserta might be shipped off to Atalanta in exchange for Carozzieri or Fuckari, Rinaudo is close to Napoli for about 7 mil and Abbiati is going back to Milan.
So, what do we have [...]

Monday Mercato Madness

By: Steven | Comments 57 Comments

Man, I love silly season. A little round-up of what the papers have been saying this weekend.
* We’re still hunting for attackers. According to TMW, we’re after Triestina-striker Granoche.

He looks goddamn ugly, but he managed 24 goals in 41 games in Serie B. To get him to Palermo, Primavera-striker Davis Curiale might be shipped off [...]

Thursday Transfer Talk

By: Steven | Comments 38 Comments

Two more games to go, and Sunday may be a special one. Not only will I be celebrating my birthday as we kick Sampdoria’s ass, it’ll most likely be Amauri’s last home-game in La Favorita. And he wants to say goodbye as a captain. The only problem is: our actual captain, Barzagli, is leaving too. [...]

Random Tuesday Tidbits

By: Steven | Comments 9 Comments

First off, I’ll show that I can be emotional too: Ciccio, I miss you! You’ve been playing like a young buck in Reggio, and I’m asking if you would consider moving back across lo stretto. I know I’m not the only one asking this, so here you go: the official ‘Get Ciccio Brienza Back To [...]

Assessing the Carnage

By: lorenzo | Comments 24 Comments

Fresh off an absolutely crushing defeat (of which I still haven’t gotten over) that we couldn’t watch, it is time to look at where Palermo stands in the eyes of our beloved Maurizio Zamparini.
First, what is there to say about the game? It looked all but headed towards a draw before Hamsik proved how [...]

The Amauri-saga continues

By: Steven | Comments 10 Comments

After puking out some more agent-written crap, Amauri’s future is still in doubt. Lots of money and my left shoe (size 14) against his face at Juve, lots of money and a crowbar against his face in Milan or even more money and the imprint of the subsitute bench imprinted in his ass in Barcelona? [...]

Marassi Mayhem

By: Steven | Comments 28 Comments

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!

Zampa sets the price

By: Steven | Comments 7 Comments

Channel 4 had a small interview with Capt’n Crazy today, and the Big Guy had some fantastic news:

“Amauri isn’t for sale and I wouldn’t want to sell him,” Zamparini told Politica nel Pallone.
“It would take a fee similar to the one Liverpool paid for Fernando Torres. I don’t think that Amauri is any [...]
