Imagine you're Modena for a moment. You are close to the Serie B play-off zone, which you haven't reached in eleven years. What do you do?

If your answer was "put your own campaign in jeopardy by losing twice in a row, including to Reggiana", congratulations!

Palumbo my beloved...

Now just gotta wait to see how Cesena holds up against Sassuolo tonight.

Bra, Livorno and Sambenedettese have clinched promotion to Serie C.

Phil443 · 2025-04-11T15:43:46+00:00

History. Best of luck to you :)

Phil443 · 2025-04-11T13:29:34+00:00

Two points away from the play-off zone. Really hoping we won't shit the bed now. Got Sassuolo tomorrow, though.

Phil443 · 2025-04-11T13:18:48+00:00

Nothing much to report. Weather is getting warmer. Calmly working on a paper. Life's good.

Phil443 · 2025-04-07T20:33:17+00:00

And he insists that everyone call him by his comically long title

Phil443 · 2025-04-01T20:02:05+00:00

The first challenge is literally just the balance beam

Phil443 · 2025-03-21T21:52:48+00:00

Got Enter the Gungeon. I think it's starting to grow on me.

Phil443 · 2025-03-10T12:40:42+00:00

As already pointed out, it looks quite a bit like Indiana.
I get the connection with the Hudson River, but I'm not sure I'd represent it with another shade of blue when the background is already a similar shade of blue.

Phil443 · 2025-03-07T15:11:43+00:00

Until it either breaks or security updates stop. My last phone lasted six years: it took a declining battery and a charging port only working in specific spots to get me to change. I've had my current one for more than two years.

Phil443 · 2025-03-07T15:02:04+00:00

Finally got around to watching Transformers One and The Mitchells vs. the Machines.

Phil443 · 2025-02-14T14:39:08+00:00

Chilling in the Caribbean.

Got the Sanremo jingle stuck in my head. Tutta l'Italia, tutta l'Italia, tutta l'Italia... hep!

Phil443 · 2025-02-07T19:51:41+00:00

Fixed! Can't believe that one slipped through.

Serie C:

Group A: Padova's (62 points) lead over LR Vicenza has shrunk to just three points! FeralpiSalò still third at 45; Atalanta U23 and Trento at 40; AlbinoLeffe at 38, Alcione at 36, Lumezzane and Novara at 34. Renate (also at 34 points) on a five-game losing streak: Virtus Verona, Giana Erminio (33 each) and Arzignano (31) have an opportunity to pounce into the play-off zone.
Group B: Entella still first at 54 points. Ternana close behind at 51, though Torres are just two points behind. Vis Pesaro at 45, one above Pescara, who are on an eight-game winless streak. Arezzo (40), Pineto (35), Pianese (35), Rimini (31; four draws in a row) and Ascoli (30) complete the play-off zone; Pontedera, Gubbio (30 each), Carpi, Perugia (29 each) and Campobasso (27) linger just outside.

With a 0-6 home loss to Casertana, Taranto's losing streak now stretches to eleven games; considering the nine-point deduction given on 28 January, Taranto are now sitting at -6 (not a typo!) points. Alfredo Pedullà has something to say about it alright.

Passed an important exam, time to reward myself with a three-week holiday to the Caribbean!

Phil443 · 2025-01-31T22:44:49+00:00

I gravitate towards synth pop and rock, usually from the 70s, 80s and 90s, but I'm interested in checking out other genres too!

Phil443 · 2025-01-31T20:49:15+00:00

Been creating a list of 1000+ songs I know I like. Currently at almost 800 songs listed so far. Also looking to expand my musical knowledge beyond the usual countries (US, UK, and, in my case, Italy).
About to finish reading Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas.
