Perth to Paisley Posted August 11, 2019 Posted August 11, 2019 Maybe a bit early to start this thread but ... Yesterday I picked up the new Tobias Young book titled Ultra. I have read only about 20% of it ...it's really good. Take a look at Tobias Jones (@Tobias_Italia): https://twitter.com/Tobias_Italia?s=09 I also see from his Twitter feed about the murder of Lazio's ultra leader. https://amp.theguardian.com/world/2019/aug/10/death-of-diabolik-fabrizio-piscitelli-lazio-football-ultra?CMP=share_btn_tw&__twitter_impression=true Looking forward to the start of the season.

Sexton Hardcastle Posted August 11, 2019 Posted August 11, 2019 The latest These Football Times was a Roma edition. Arrived the other day but still to read it. Another patchy Roma campaign to go with the Hearts mess is far from what the doctor ordered. Quote
Boab Posted August 11, 2019 Posted August 11, 2019 Can’t see past I Gobbi yet again. Sarri is a good coach. Interesting to see how Conte gets on at Inter. Maybe a wee bounce. Giampaolo needs to hit the ground running at Milan. Already booked for first Milan Derby. Same day as Hibs game but hey ho....TV and off to San Siro ! Quote
Perth to Paisley Posted August 24, 2019 Author Posted August 24, 2019 Just finished Tobias Jones new book called Ultra ... an excellenf read for calcio fans. It goes on general release on 19 September but there may still be some available at Edinburgh Book Fest in George Street. One of the significant characters in the book is the Lazio uktra #Diabolik who has very recently been murdered. https://roma.repubblica.it/cronaca/2019/08/21/news/diabolik_funerali_roma-234032758/?refresh_ce See @tobias_italia Twitter for more. Also this article on BJ, Trump and Berlusconi is fascinating https://foreignpolicy.com/2019/08/21/were-all-living-in-berlusconis-italy-world-now-trump-boris/ All kicks off today. Forza Calcio Quote
Forza Cuore Posted August 24, 2019 Posted August 24, 2019 Can't see past The Old Lady again. Sarri not keeping too well so could unsettle the squad early on. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/49435186 Quote
Telford Jambo Posted August 24, 2019 Posted August 24, 2019 The rest of the contenders just have to hope the Juve players take a bit of time to get used to Sarri's tactics. Can't see past them though. Quote
Perth to Paisley Posted August 24, 2019 Author Posted August 24, 2019 Hoping for Napoli to take a leap forward. Tough opening away game in Genoa v Samp .... Juve to win by 9 points is very likely Quote
Sexton Hardcastle Posted August 24, 2019 Posted August 24, 2019 Some horrible penalty awards tonight. Italian var co rubies on from last seasons shambles. Quote
Sexton Hardcastle Posted August 24, 2019 Posted August 24, 2019 Incredible that’s not a penalty compared to the other. Quote
Perth to Paisley Posted August 24, 2019 Author Posted August 24, 2019 Fiorentina away for Napoli...my mistake Some game...I could see how RIBERI called for a penalty but I thought he was also holding.. Great start to the season. Quote
Sexton Hardcastle Posted August 25, 2019 Posted August 25, 2019 Milan losing. Predictable after the usual bum up all pre season. Quote
Sexton Hardcastle Posted August 25, 2019 Posted August 25, 2019 Liam Henderson serie a debut. Good to see how he fairs at this level. Quote
Telford Jambo Posted August 25, 2019 Posted August 25, 2019 Milan look pretty average to be honest, they'll not be near the top 3. Quote
Sexton Hardcastle Posted August 25, 2019 Posted August 25, 2019 Lovely start in Rome and a cracking finish. Quote
Sexton Hardcastle Posted August 31, 2019 Posted August 31, 2019 Another ridiculous game. Somw performance from Napoli second half. Quote

Perth to Paisley Posted September 29, 2019 Author Posted September 29, 2019 Notice that Mertens (wo scored today) is one goal short of Maradona goal scoring records for Napoli. Quote
Perth to Paisley Posted September 29, 2019 Author Posted September 29, 2019 Frank Ribery making 36 look like 26! Quite Special dribbling ability very open match with Fiorentina 1 up at San Siro Quote

Perth to Paisley Posted November 4, 2019 Author Posted November 4, 2019 (edited) Desperate ... and it was made worse by the fact the Charmsn saying the fans were being "ironic". Edited November 4, 2019 by Perth to Paisley Quote
OmiyaHearts Posted November 4, 2019 Posted November 4, 2019 Not quite Serie A but Malaury Martin scored his first goal for Palermo in Serie D at the weekend. Sweet strike from about 25 yards in a 6-0 win. Quote
Perth to Paisley Posted November 4, 2019 Author Posted November 4, 2019 Forgot he went there. The fans will love him as they progress through the leagues. Quote
