    It's possible, you just have to believe in yourself and really not care what other people say, because I've heard it all.
    If you let someone else dictate what you're going to do in life, then you won't get there.


    Non so neanche come onestamente: in due mesi ero di nuovo in campo.

  • this means that Roma is save..now Verona, San Giustino and Padova are risking...
    there is still the second place to decide, while the 4th is taken by Belluno (great season for them,despite all the economic problems) while the seventh place is for Monza..

    Great to hear that Kadziewicz played! What a pity that I couldn't see that match. But reading some news I see that he played really good. So I'm satisfied for his debut in a new team ^^

    What the hell Latina is doing? Third loss in a row and the last two in the matches against the teams which I expected they'll beat...

  • That picture kills me :(
    Yesterday I noticed that Giani had a terrible face just like Zlatanov in that picture... never seen him like that.


    Anyway I'm extremely happy we're finally SAFE, and also Mezzaroma said that we'll have a team next year too, so I'm even happier.


    aaaand I read is almost sure that Zaytsev is going to Macerata.

  • I read is almost sure that Zaytsev is going to Macerata.

    Big mistake for him

  • In the Roma - Monza highlight we can see Monza playing like pionirs, all of the players going on the ball, nobody staying in the area of the court they should.... and what to tell about Buti's sever on 23-14 :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: his foot was 30cm IN :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

  • Vigor played for us from 2003 since 2009...
    yesterday we could not support the team for the first 5 minutes, something like a wall blocked us..even Cuneo's supporters did the same..
    you'll always be with us Vigor....R.I.P. ;(


    trying to talk about volleyball...if we are able to win in Cuneo without Zhekov and Holt i really start to have strong good feelings for the playoffs...
    one particular note for our block: 20 blocks.....

    2001: Italian champions beach volley 4x4
    2002: Italian League Serie A2 - Italian Cup Serie A2
    2004: Italian league's runner up - Cev Cup's runner up
    2006: Top Teams Cup - Italian Cup's runner up
    2007: Italian league's runner up - Cev Cup's runner up
    2008: Champions league's runner up - Italian league's runner up
    2009: Italian League
    2009: Italian Supercup
    2010: Cev Cup's runner up
    2013: Challenge Cup
    <<We're always with you, and we will never leave you alone!>>


  • one particular note for our block: 20 blocks.....


    Piacenza is making blocks like Bulgaria under Prandi, balls to the wall :lol:

  • Big mistake for him


    The mistake is not his, that's the point. Lube has more money than Trento...


    Though I think that Macerata could take all the best OHs and opposites of the world but if they keep Travica they won't go anywhere. In NT he set much more balls to Savani or Lasko, Zaytsev was his last choice... we'll see how things will go this summer.

  • So last rounds is going to offer us answers on questions like: Will Padova stay in A1 or San Giustino, will Roma play with 100% concentration againts Padova, will Copra play on their level againts San Giustino, and few other smaller questions like 2nd, 3rd placed team etc etc... it is going to be very interesting tomorrow!
