Milan-Siena Review: Three games, only one point..
By: Matthew |Firstly I’d like to apologise for not having written a preview for this game.. With three games this week it is not only the players that are suffering!
The trip to the San Siro is always a big game regardless of the club, and this holds true for Siena. After 10 days that has seen La [...]
Catania Review: Swindled out of 2 points..
By: Matthew |Frustrating is definatly a term that springs to mind after this weekends performance.. Not frustrating in the sense that the boys did not perform, but rather that we were desperately unlucky not to take maximum reward for our efforts.

Injured: Eleftheropoulos, Belmonte, [...]
Preview: Genoa-Siena – Be wary of the Griffins
By: Matthew |This coming Sunday sees the return to Serie A action after a (somewhat) successful international break. Yes Italy sit proudly atop their group, but a lack lusture proformance against Bulgaria in Sofia and much needed win at home to men from the ‘black mountain’, is nothing to cry from the hilltops about.. Although as has [...]
Introduction: football as religion.
By: Matthew |Greeeeetings!
In terms of football there is not much love loss between the Italians and the English. However, this is only because both believe that they possess the devine right to claim the sport as their own.. Therefore being British-Italian myself it equips me with the birth right to be a football fanatic.
