Forza Chievo!


Today Chievo Verona will play a very, very important match: the last of the season and the one that will decide if Chievo remains in the top division, the "A" series.
It's been a difficult year for my team but they've done pretty well in the last few months. We went to see the "thursday match" last week and I snapped a few photos... You can see Luciano, Moro, Langella, Frey (in the back), Bogdani. 
It's great to support a team that is from a small town and yet it plays in the top division.
And it's fantastic to be able to casually meet some of these guys at the bar, the chemist's or just walking by... this hardly can happen with "big" teams!
So, finger crossed for today! Chievo will play against Bologna at the Bentegodi stadium ....
and I will be there supporting!

This post is dedicated to Saretta and Henny's brother and to everyone out there that
understands the uniqueness of Chievo!

I hope it was a good game and that your team wins. I also like to follow the team in the lower division because it is more fun to watch, you can get closer to the field and the ticket prices are more reasonably priced.

I hope the team win!!

Thank you very much, Valeria. I wish them all the best. Am I too late?
I'm sorry, I don't have access to watch The A series here. I think I'm just gonna call my brother.

I got the football results from Serie A and I see that Chievo drew 0-0 yesterday with Bologna. I think Chievo are now safe from relegation? Please confirm this for me.
