Deisler26 Posted February 19, 2012 Author Share Posted February 19, 2012 Santarcangelo Calcio, May 2025 Review 04.05.25 Santarcangelo Calcio 0 - 6 F.C Internazionale (Serie A TIM) This..... was not good. 11.05.25 Santarcangelo Calcio 1 - 0 Juventus (Serie A TIM) The Old Lady was mugged on this occasion as we conducted a smash n' grab on Juve with a Sergio Corallo goal. This result saw us mathmatically safe. 14.05.25 Santarcangelo Calcio 1 - 3 Brescia Calcio (Serie A TIM) A lone goal from Amadeo Del Nevo was the only thing mustered from a team with both eyes on the Cup Final. 18.05.25 Santarcangelo Calcio 0 - 0 S.S.C Napoli (Serie A TIM) Dull, boring, flat. The perfect end to a season of survival 21.04.25 Santarcangelo Calcio 0 - 0p Parma (2-3 on pens) (TIM Coppa Italia Final) 120 mins of pure torture, with neither side getting many clear-cut chances. Penalties beckoned and, again, Mirco Doria saved the first penalty. It was to be our bright spot as first Remo Cristiani missed, then Sergio Corallo and finally, most crucially, Andrea Raia missed, gifting Parma the cup win and us some more broken dreams. -----------------—-------- We eventually finished 14th in Serie A TIM, some 5 points clear of the drop zone. The joy was short-lived as we failed to take home the TIM Coppa Italia again. Now, I've completed my target that I set out to do when I started this save. Take a team playing Catenaccio all the way from Lega Pro Seconda Divisione to Serie A TIM and keep them up. So, I suppose the question is; Do I stay? Or seek other climes?

Deisler26 Posted February 22, 2012 Author Share Posted February 22, 2012 Well, I'm definitely staying until the end of the season.

noikeee Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 Flying to go watch the rubbish team you manage in FM.. that's amazing dedication. I quite like the way you rescue back players you had to sell previously, Doria's comeback has been wildly successful and I hope Novelli's goes the same way.

ShyBaldBuddhist Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 I'm not ashamed to say, I just looked up flights and hotel accomodation to go to Santarcangelo for a game.... That would be pretty awesome. There was a pretty good thread in GD (it does happen sometimes) with someone travelling a distance to watch a club he had grown to love due to FM. Think it was FC Oss he went to see. Said the club were really good to him and the game was very high scoring draw, 3-3 or 4-4, can't remeber the exact score. Sounded like he had a ball though Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackJCFC Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 Yeah i've just read an article of a guy who came from Brazil to watch Accrington Stanley, he had taken them to premiership glory on FM but i think he genuinly supported them. You should definitly go though, would be a great experience. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deisler26 Posted February 27, 2012 Author Share Posted February 27, 2012 Santarcangelo Calcio, August 2025 Review We had our pitch re-laid and work started on our new youth facilities and our stadium increases in the off-season. Our brief was to again avoid relegation with a £210k wage budget and a £17.13m transfer budget. Again, all I want to do is stay up.. --------------------------------------------------- 24.08.25 Santarcangelo Calcio 0 - 1 Varese (TIM Coppa Italia Third Qualifying Round) This was just s****y. We barely got into gear all game and in the 58th minute, a hard angled shot from the edge of the area was redirected by the Varese striker's head, leaving Doria only able to palm the ball into the net. 30.08.25 Santarcangelo Calcio 2 - 2 S.S Lazio (Serie A TIM) Francesco Cortini put us into the lead early on with a deft header and Sergio Corallo put us back in the lead on 64 mins after we'd conceded just before HT. However, a win wasn't to be as we conceded late on to start the season with a credible 2-2 draw. ---------------------------------------------------- No major signings to note this August. First off, talented Brazilian midfielder Filipe came in on a free from Santos along with veteran striker Federico Macheda, also on a free. The main cash spent was a £1m deal for youth DM Giuseppe Santangelo from Varese. We also signed three players to youth contracts. German AMC Kai Gensler, French AMC Johan Dumont and, finally, Portuguese ST Dani Rodrigues. I'll put up their sats if I sign them. First out the door was DM Çağatay Topraktepe. He'll be an exceptional talent, but a S.S.C Napoli offer of £6m + 50% is too much to turn down.. English D/MC Larnell Fitzpatrick headed back to the homeland and Coventry City for the sum of £1.5m. Also leaving was AMC Matteo Colombi for £2.9m to Livorno and MC Davide Ranieri to Parma FC for £2.5m + 50%. That was a loss, but with Del Nevo and now Filipe ahead of him, his opportunities were limited. Finally, youth starlet Daniel Giannoni was snapped up by Paris Saint Germain for £2.1m + 50%. He'll be a great talent and hopefully, I can profit by it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deisler26 Posted February 27, 2012 Author Share Posted February 27, 2012 Santarcangelo Calcio, September 2025 Review 14.09.25 Santarcangelo Calcio 0 - 0 F.C Internazionale (Serie A TIM) A good defensive performance ground us out the point here. 21.09.25 Santarcangelo Calcio 0 - 1 AC Milan (Serie A TIM) We worked hand and the only slip the defence made all game left the Milan striker free to condemn us to defeat. 24.09.25 Santarcangelo Calcio 2 - 1 Empoli FC (Serie A TIM) Paolo Sarzi put us ahead with a placed shot into the corner, then Amedeo Del Nevo doubled our lead in the second half with a fine run and shot. 28.09.25 Santarcangelo Calcio 1 - 0 Juve Stabia (Serie A TIM) Federico Macheda was our hero in this one, netting his first ever goal for the club after Francesco Cortini's strike was beaten out by the keeper. ------------------------------------------------ We were 10th at the end of the month, however, our next match is against S.S.C Napoli, who have racked up the following scores in the last three games. 6-1, 4-0 and 9-0.

Deisler26 Posted March 10, 2012 Author Share Posted March 10, 2012 What's happening? The team no longer able to improve? Partly. Partly is that I've been so busy lately, that I haven't had chance to give it the time it deserves. Plus I feel we over-achieved in the first half of the season. I think it's time to go Fergie on this team. Rip them apart. All foreigners out, try to bring some of the youth through. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
