Grazie

By: Ben | June 1st, 2009

The biggest day of the year came and went and the only memory I will hold is that I sat and watch the goals tick away in our favor from behind a computer in my office on La Gazzetta dello Sport. However, the heart of the matter is Bologna remains in A, we have ground out a patchy campaign and managed to surpass Il Toro who will sadly join Reggina and Lecce in Serie B. With the exception of Torino I am incredibly enthused by the relegation of Reggina and Lecce. Reggina, because I believe there have been forces outside of sport pulling the strings of their continual salvation and Lecce because once again I have an inexplicable hatred for Simone Tiribocchi.

Simone inspires hatred, especially his foolish celebratory trucker’s fist pump on those horrid post-goal occasions.

For you few who have read this blog I thank you and I am glad that it will still be around for at least another season. Hopefully there will be more time to devote to it.

Next up…The transfer market.

  Thanks for the commentary and for all of your posts, Ben – Hope to see some movement in the transfer market. At the very least, we know (according to President Menarini) that Di Vaio will sign for next year and stay with the club. Great, great news.

  I was at the game (and post-game celebrations) yesterday, and it was quite insane. I’m mad that Di Vaio didn’t win capocannoniere, but at least he was in the race until the very last match. Looking forward to following BFC for another year, and I hope that they can really beef up the defense (and the rest of the field) for next season.

  Wat the heck? Ben, I didn’t know you posted on the 1st of the month……

  Anyways, good to see that your ok. Congrats on being able to stay on Serie A. Next season will be much much tougher for all teams, as the newly promoted teams all look quite ready and good to compete in Serie A.

  Hey Ben – can we get some kind of midsummer market recap on Bologna? I keep checking the blog for some kind of update, and while I’m sure you’re busy, I feel like the other blogs are more active, and I’d love to know what’s going on with the team, if you have any news. Then again, Bologna isn’t the most active team in the market this summer…
