Novellino Out – Iaconi In
By: Dan | 1 Comment
It’s not fun to blog about Reggina when all we are experiencing is loss after loss… 4th from the bottom after 10 matches. I like Novellino but I guess something had to be done to ignite a fire with this team. Walter Novellino was canned following the 2-0 road loss to his former club, Torino. A match in which we hardly created anything on the offensive side. Missed a couple a close chances, but other than that never really threatened.
So Novellino’s replacement is Ivo Iaconi. Who is Iaconi you might ask? He’s a 53-year-old journeyman coach around the lower leagues in Italy. Most recently with Cremonese, and more notably with Ascoli in 2007-08 after their relegation from Serie A. He’s been at the helm of more than ten clubs in a period of time which spans almost two decades.
Is he the right guy for the job? From what I’ve read, he prefers to use three defenders and three attacking players, which might create some exciting football for once. He relies on the speed of the wingers, so we might see a 3-4-3 of some sorts. We won’t have long to wait and see what Iaconi does on his debut, as he will be immediately tested with a midweek match against Lecce.
Promotion is far from a goal now. Let’s just take it one game at a time and then we can see where we are at when May and June roll around. For now, I will continue to play FIFA ‘10 and live in my Reggina fantasy world.

Lecce-Reggina has been postponed to October 27 due to commitments with the national team. Uggggggggggggggh. When we’re down and out the worst thing to do is delay the possibility of getting more points. We could end up even further in the cellar. Valdez was dropped from Uruguay, so what are we talking about? 1 player with Carmona?! Then the U-21’s Barilla and Kovacsik but who cares! See you in two weeks

I’d be inspired to blog more if it weren’t for the aneurysm this team has given me. Another draw and a loss in a 4 day span… plummeting near the bottom of the table. What the hellllllllllllll is goinggggggggg onnnnnnnnnnnnnn !?!@#?!#!
Back home against Piacenza on Saturday……… 3 points and we could leap back to a “respectable” position, albeit still painfully far from the top. CAN WE GET OUR SHIT TOGETHER PLEASE!@#!?!?????? PLEASe???????????????????????????????
And what the hell is wrong with these ultras? Smashing innocent people’s car windows and other misadventures while traveling up in Frosinone? BE AMBASSADORS OF OUR TEAM, NOT A BUNCH OF DICKHEADS WHO ARE GOING TO CAUSE STADIUM BANS.

Finally.. less than 24 hours until kickoff between Reggina and Mantova. It feels like the season hasn’t even started yet. There have been some surprises so far in Serie B, but it’s hard to get the bigger picture with so many teams still having a game or two in hand. A win tomorrow could essentially jump us right back to the top of the table. Mantova, expected by most to avoid relegation, is still searching for their first league win and will have the support of their home fans as they host Reggina tomorrow. Read the rest of this entry »

Slow news week as Reggina-Vicenza was postponed and the transfer window closed… so in the wake of Salernitana’s third straight loss I wanted to quote this know it all who commented on my pre-season Serie B predictions:

Sorry but if you think that Salernitana are going to be battling relegation, you should follow teh calciomercato more closely.
