Roma 1 – Fiorentina 0: The Return.
By: chris |Roma 1 – Fiorentina 0
They back.
For the neutral observer, that had to be the best 1-0 Serie A game of the season thus far – perhaps even the best game altogether. Completely open end-to-end stuff from opening to closing whistles. All of which will probably take a few years off the lives of two sets [...]
Fiorentina: Injuries Return in the Wake of Form
By: chris |Roma v Viola
Isn’t this loverly. The injuries dissipate, the form returns, and we’ve all been afforded the opportunity to hang our hats on that cruel, cruel bitch known as hope. Well hope struck back, as she’s apt to do, and it’s time to back up the ambulance because they’re dropping like flies again. Christian Panucci [...]

I hereby swear not to use the “b” word.
Does this mean they’re ____? They might be ____. Of course, we won’t know if they’re truly ____ until Sunday afternoon, when full time is called at the Olimpico against the Purple People Eaters. Not that Roma can’t be ____ and still lose [...]
Minipreview: Giallorossi v The Other Giallorossi
By: chris |Red & Yellow v Red & Yellow
Eschewing the fluff and getting right down to business: Only once in the last ten years has Roma lost after a derby victory (Perugia in ‘99). Good omen. However, Lecce hasn’t lost at home yet this season. Bad omen. And it’s not as though they’ve played crap opposition. They’ve [...]
