Ep. 3.33 - The Conspiracy Episode

Season 3, Ep. 33

Get ready for some Como conspiracies as Marco lets rip after farcical events in the midweek round of Serie B games - although fortunately San Joel was able to partially make up for things against Feralpisalò. In Serie A, Inter help Sassuolo in their relegation battle, while Giancarlo is feeling strangely optimistic about Fiorentina's 2nd leg v Club Brugge (never a good sign on the pod...)

  • 21. Ep. 4.21 - The January Transfers Episode

    25:09||Season 4, Ep. 21
    It was all draws for the top teams this weekend, while Fiorentina grabbed a second consecutive win. No such luck for Venezia, who lost their captain to the transfer window and their keeper to injury - but could Balotelli save the day (spoiler: probably not, but it would be fun).
  • 20. Ep. 4.20 - Farewell to the Doge?

    26:39||Season 4, Ep. 20
    Will he stay or will he go? That's the question that Marco and all Venezia fans have been asking after the shock news that the club are trying to sell the Doge of Venice himself, Joel Pohjanpalo. To make matters worse, Venezia could only draw against Verona. Elsewhere, Fiorentina got back to winning ways against Lazio, while Napoli beat Juve to make the title race too close to call.
  • 19. Ep. 4.19 - Colpani or Candela - who is worse?

    31:19||Season 4, Ep. 19
    This week, we try to outdo each other by discussing who has the poorer player in their team - Colpani or Candela. Plus, Atalanta lose a humdinger of a match v Napoli - is their title challenge done? And why Lazio's eagle tamer is making all the wrong headlines for Serie A around the world...
  • 18. Ep. 4.18 - The January Mercato Episode

    30:00||Season 4, Ep. 18
    Good results for teams at the bottom of the league is bad news for Venezia - but were they a bit unlucky against Inter? Napoli win despite the Kvara-going rumours, and we consider what impact that and other rumoured January transfers will have on the league
  • 17. Ep. 4.17 - The Rebalancing Episode

    28:01||Season 4, Ep. 17
    It's the halfway stage of the season and we think the results are starting to rebalance the league a little - Roma doing a bit better as we thought they would and Lazio and Fiorentina a little worse. Elsewhere, Venezia grab a point against Empoli, but was it a good or bad point? And what does the January market have in store for clubs?
  • 16. Ep. 4.16 - The Happy Christmas Episode

    25:20||Season 4, Ep. 16
    Marco is full of festive cheer as Venezia deliver that Christmas miracle win against Cagliari, while Atalanta's sensational season continues. We also discuss the ridiculousness of VAR offside decisions, and wonder if Roma have turned a corner. Merry Christmas all!
  • 15. Ep 4.15 - The Rigore per la Juve Episode

    26:31||Season 4, Ep. 15
    Atalanta stay top, Fiorentina's winning run ends, and Venezia nearly pull off a historic result in Turin - only for Juve to get their usual 95th minute penalty...NOTE - Initially we uploaded a version in which Giancarlo's audio was too low (some may say this was a good thing!) but we have uploaded a new version - if you can read this, you should have the new and improved version!
  • Ep. 4.14 - The Stormy Weather Episode

    26:36|
    It's the season of the "smaller" teams as Atalanta go top, and Fiorentina and Lazio dare to dream. But down at the bottom end, Venezia and Como play out a farcical draw in stormy weather - a result that probably keeps Di Francesco his job, but doesn't really help.
  • 13. Ep. 4.13 - The One Where Marco Wishes He Was Still Sick

    29:00||Season 4, Ep. 13
    We're back after an illness-enforced absence, but things have only gotten worse for Venezia... How is Di Francesco still in a job? Elsewhere, there were frightening scenes in Florence when Edoardo Bove collapsed, but fortunately he seems to be doing a little better, while on the pitch, Napoli extended their lead at the top, while most teams at the bottom got some vital points.
