... Cuoiopelli Cappiano-Romaiano?? I can figure out the 2 last parts myself, but the first part looks Zulu to me.
Cuiopelli are a modest Serie C2/B-team in Florence, Central Italy, 2500 all-seater stadium.
Cuoiopelli C2/B 04/05
Board and supporters expectations are clear: avoid relegation.
But we weren't that bad, a good start saw us climb the table fast to settle just outside the playoffs.
Around februari we semi-collapsed, dropping slow but steady to 15th place (just outside relegation playoffs) making us battling against the playoffs. A few wins took turn with a few losing streaks but we ere slightly better then the teams beneath us.
Another problem however were the finances. Cuiopelli's wage bill was a total disaster, we found our wage bill at around 1 million a year (euro, dutch bloke here), and that was exactly how much we were in the red at the end of the season. Gate receipts were barely enough to cover the ground maintenance and i saw that all the waster-contracts expired the season after.
serie C cup: 2nd in first round in a group with 6 teams (not enough for 2nd round) final position: 14th 38g 15w 6d 17l 67/54 +13 51
Am currently in season 4 so give me time to type:p. Will post the rest later this evening.
Just noticed that the final position stats are wrong in first season,
correct one: 14th 38g 12w 11d 15l 50/47 +3 47
Cuoiopelli C2/B 05/06
players in: 8 (one of them being a veterean winger who was in AC Milan's first eleven for 2 years :eek: )
players out: 3
Board and supporters expectations were clear again: avoid relegation(pessimistic donkeys ).
We started the season relatively bad, living it up in the relegation playoff zone. 6 straight wins in november made us settle mid-table were we stayed for the entire season, we won some, we lost some.
We had the best attack of the division, but were held back by cheese full of holes, also known as our defence. Defenitly going to bring in some improvement as soon as the last waster contracts expire.
My milan starlet decided to retire after a season of lower league succes, will miss him.
serie C cup: 3th in the group stage, missing 2nd round by one point. final position: 10th 38g 15w 6d 17l 67/54 +13 51
Board and supporters predicted another relegation battle, I sure proved them wrong!
We were never out of the playoffs, only team that was predicted to give us a hard time was Carrarese. We had to allow them 8 points late februari, but took them back after beating them 2-1 at home, their 3 game losing streak helped us get past them and grab the title 1 game before finish.
3 new signing made it all happen, I managed to give everyone new contracts on lower wages. Board started to cut down on wages since we are now € 3.2 million in the red.
serie C cup: 1-4 aggregate defeat versus Empoli (who turned out winning C1/A) in the quarter final. final position: 1th 38g 24w 7d 7l 79/43 +36 79[/QUOTE]
On this subject... during the beginning of my Worksop Town LLM adventure I played Rhydymwyn in a friendly. Any ideas on the pronounciation of that one?

I assume it would be like "rythm", so: wridimwin. Can't see myself pronounce this in the middle of a sentence though.
How on earth do you pronounce...
