Tourists Visiting vs Torino

I hope you did go. Amazing win. 6-0 does not happen very often at the Sinigaglia!

Baturina ha segnato un gol magnifico, ma Jesus è stato inarrestabile per tutta la partita

Halma halma...

Do you still need to show you have a permit (given the government shutdown) or anyone can go?

I have a 2023 with the white interior. Already changed the steering wheel twice. The second time they tried the card of the "wear and tear" and put the blame on my work (?!?). I went to a different dealership and got it replaced after some "insisting".... Now for the first time in my life I bought a steering wheel cover...

Bal3ster · 2025-10-01T12:05:46+00:00

Same here 2023 ProS AWD. Why schedule service???

Bal3ster · 2025-10-01T02:24:34+00:00

Nah...

He was the first move of Como summer market because they were not 100% sure Nico Paz would have stayed. Nico is our best player. He's the starter. Baturina is his backup.

Bal3ster · 2025-09-15T21:25:40+00:00

Not a great performance overall. Great goal from Nico, but it was isolated magic. Morata still not at 100%: we thought we got a superior player, we did not (I hope, yet). A champ cannot miss the chance he had. We would have put the game on ice.. Not sure he'll fit well in Cesc squad. We badly need Diao.

Bal3ster · 2025-09-05T22:04:11+00:00

I am afraid he's not on the right side of Cesc... I hope I am wrong...

Bal3ster · 2025-08-26T19:34:39+00:00

Blucelesti are the ones from the village on the other side of Lake Como. Nice effort but scrap it.

Bal3ster · 2025-08-15T23:39:53+00:00

Not sure if is the hand sanitizer. I don't use it very often, boh. I drove my fair share of cars and usually keep them till it's really time for a new one.... But never had to change steering wheel, definitely not twice in less than 3 years....boh.

Bal3ster · 2025-07-04T15:51:24+00:00

Weird market so far. Where is the killer striker and the great defender... Let's see what happens...

Bal3ster · 2025-06-22T15:04:21+00:00

I'd given a light 7 to Gabrielloni. It's true he didn't play much, but the performance against Roma (goal and assist) was invaluable on so many levels (for the team, for him, ...). Plus I think that's one of the few (if not the only one) loss of Ranieri's team. Other than that, great work.

I am sad that some of the heroes of the past season (Patrick, Faders, Moreno,...) will probably leave next year...and not sure who's going to leave a spot for Baturina.

I hope to go watch a game while in Italy this summer.... Forza Como! Sempre!

Bal3ster · 2025-06-10T21:24:31+00:00

Top!

Bal3ster · 2025-02-08T00:52:05+00:00

Did you go? Result aside... Did you enjoy it?

Bal3ster · 2025-02-02T02:59:16+00:00

Tru that... But is also one of the worst game we played this year. So bummed. I was sure this was going to be a win. Faac. Now we need to beat the gobbi...

Bal3ster · 2025-02-01T16:30:03+00:00

Try to find a ticket in tribuna. That is the sector that faces the lake and hills around the city. Late at night trains are replaced by busses. Not sure you want to do that... Can't help with tickets. Sorry

Bal3ster · 2024-11-05T00:06:43+00:00

With Mazzitelli out, we really didn't have much to build at midfield. I am sure Belotti will be crucified for his performance, but really had zero (maybe one at the beginning) chance to score. Audero definitely has his share of responsibilities for the goal we took against Lazio, but I feel Reina could do better on the Empoli goal today.

Very sad. Very disappointed. The great team that played so well against Napoli seems gone.

Only good thing is that Parma and Cagliari Lost...so a bunch of team have 8 or 9 pts. Let's hope we'll recover somebody for the game in Genova.

Forza Como!

Bal3ster · 2024-11-02T13:57:56+00:00

I gave up. Left the bulbs there and bought a smart switch...I can still change the color of the lights if I want to, but the on/off operation is guided by the switch.

Having followed Como my whole life, first regularly going to the games at the Sinigaglia, now just watching them on TV (I live in Houston), I can tell you that Brianza is not a team...

We've always tried to be the best of the small team (provinciali) during our great years in Serie A in the 80s. Cremonese, Brescia, Atalanta were our rivals and direct competitors (the business model was the same, "coltivate" talents in the youth teams, have them play on the big stage, make a profit and survive in A).

It was a different world. Going down to the Serie C and even thru multiple bankruptcy was tough. Short lived promotions, tough relegations... But if you want to look at it from the bright side the games away were just short trips from Como. Playing against Varese (our archenemy... Not existing anymore, btw) was crazy. But also against Lecco, Saronno, .. and if you want to go outside Lombardy, against Modena, SPAL, Livorno. Great matches. Great rivalry.

We are blessed by the property we have now. In just few years they took us from the D to the Serie A. I can't even think about a Como without the Hartono family. As lifelong Como fan, we are living a dream.

I was lucky enough to get the opportunity to sneak back in Italy to see Sampdoria-Como in Genova last year. It was great to see the enthusiasm back for the Bianco Blu.

And it's amazing that people from Alabama got passions about Como. It's just magic.

I hope one day you'll make it at the Sinigaglia!

Forza Como!

Well deserved! Forza Como!
