S6 E4 - Down and out in the Venetian Lagoon (opens the original)
Read excerpt
After a week's hiatus to allow Marco to recover from losing the Rigore! derby, we are back and things are going from bad to worse for Venezia, who sit dead last in Serie A with zero points... Things have improved somewhat for Fiorentina since the appointment of Vanoli however. At the top, Inter, Roma and Lazio are setting the early pace, while Cagliari and Frosinone are the surprise packages. Plus, we discuss Mancini's first Italy squad since his reappointment. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/pri
S6 E3 - Battling it out at the bottom (opens the original)
Read excerpt
No reprieve from the misery this week as both Venezia and Fiorentina continue their poor starts - but it must all change next week when they face each other at the Penzo! At the other end of the table, things are hotting up and though it is early days, it looks like there could be a 4 or 5 way battle for the Scudetto! NOTE - we recorded this before Grosso's sacking, so we will address that in the next pod! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
