Viola draw Newcastle: Recap

By: Ted | Comments 35 Comments

So on Saturday morning I get back from a killer business trip in New York City. I hardly got any sleep. The only thing that got me home, in fact, was the fact that I would be able to see my wife and kid, and that I would be able to see Fiorentina (presumably) dismantle [...]

The Viola are Back! Newcastle Preview

By: Tim | Comments 90 Comments

Finally! This goes two ways I suppose, the good is finally the Viola are returning to action after the international break that would not end, and the bad is that finally the viola blog has been updated. I’d make excuses, but let’s just get to the calcio.

Mighty Viola Two Off Lead

By: Ted | Comments 100 Comments

Today in Beautiful Florence the mighty Viola drew with a defensive-minded Lazio squad, thus pulling only a point mere days after their exciting dismantling of Liverpool. The draw, of course, isn’t the worst thing in the world (Newcastle was spanked by Palermo this afternoon) so our boys remain two points from the top and in [...]

Lazio Preview

By: Tim | Comments 153 Comments

Hopefully the Viola will be able to keep the momentum rolling as Lazio come to the Franchi tomorrow. The baby blues are a difficult opponent, and their hammering of Leviski Sofia will probably boost their confidence after a middling beginning to the Serie A campaign.

Big CL Showdown: Scousers Come to Firenze

By: Tim | Comments 192 Comments

This match is a real opportunity for Fiorentina. So far, there really aren’t any signature results fans can point to from this competition. We know that the squad has the ability to produce wins against top teams in Italy from time to time (Roma last year, at Newcastle the year before that, etc.), [...]

Tricky Tuscan Derby? Viola travel to Lame Livorno on Saturday.

By: Tim | Comments 172 Comments

What’s happening? Fortunately for our boys in purple, they don’t have far to go for tomorrow evening’s match at Livorno. It will be a short bus trip, but there are plenty of memories of poor results on the road against inferior Tuscan sides in recent season to make any Fiorentina supporter nervous.
