qustion need to be answered could anyone of you give a list of all italian (( derbys )) between all the clubs you know ... i know the major ones like (( Milan-inter)) (( roma- lazio)) (( juve toreno )) please add to this list as much as you know.. 2- is there another team in (( Parma )) other that Parma thank you all
No there isn’t a second team in Parma. It’s not a big city, and AC Parma only came to prominence in the nineties. The only other major derbies in Italy are Sampdoria-Genoa and Chievo-Hellas Verona. There are other regional rivals.
How is that going low Sue?? Both teams have been in Serie A on different occasions ad are not exaclty unknowns. Cittadella is a team?? I thought it was a salami's brand name.
You're right, at least Spal has been in Serie A (last time in the mid 60s). But it's not exactly Roma-Lazio, is it BTW, are you sure Spal-Vicenza is a derby? According to www..rsssf.org, Spal is in "Ferrara" which is in Emilia-Romagna while Vicenza is in the Veneto. Anyway, even though Cittadella Padova has never been in A, they were as high as Serie B just a few years ago. Of course, Padova were in Serie A not that long ago ith Alexi Lalas AS Cittadella and Padova (and Spal) are currently in C1A.
Re: So, is there another club in Ferrara? No, there isn't; Spal is the only professional football team in the city of Ferrara. Spal stands for S.P.A.L. (Societa' Polisportiva Ars et Labor), pretty difficult ot translate however. Usually "derbies" in Italy are the games between teams of the same city or coming from different but close cities (typically of the same region): Spal (Ferrara) and Vicenza belong to different region as Sue noticed, but they are only 110 km far so it could be - in an extended way - a derby too. About Cittadella, yes they are the second team in Padova. To be honest, Cittadella is not Padova, it's about 30 km far: however, since Cittadella came to serie B, they play into Padova's stadium.
Yes, for sure Sampdoria-Genoa is one of the hottest italian derbies, while Chievo-Hellas Verona is honestly a step (maybe 2) under. Talking about current major derbies in Serie A, we can't forget Emilia Romagna derbies: Modena, Bologna and Parma (last year Piacenza and some years ago Reggiana and Cesena too) actually play in Serie A, so this year there will be many regional derbies: Modena-Bologna Modena-Parma Bologna-Parma For the atmosphere, I can say the most exciting of these games is Modena-Bologna: these are the closest cities (less than 40 km far) and an ancient rivalry begun in the middle age. With Parma there's rivalry too, but with Bologna it's another thing. Maybe when Hussa talked about a 2nd Parma team (Parma wears yellow and blue), he meant about Modena (cause we are yellow and blue too). So, in a nut, please add these 3 derbies to the list Other important derbies: Palermo-Messina-Catania (all from Sicilia) Bari-Lecce Pisa-Livorno Como-Varese Atalanta-Brescia (dangerous one!) Verona-Vicenza-Venezia (all from Veneto) ...
Thank you all for the impotent info that you gave me, i really leaned alot.. For (( modenafc1912 )) .. l belive the italian leage is the best in the world, not only because of the mony and the history, but because of the Fans theim selevs... i remember one time(( modenafc1912 )) went to (( UAE )) in middeleast, at that time (( juve )) beat (( real madrid )) every one in that country went to the streets to celebrat. HOW about Napoli ?? i heard that (( Salernitana )) is their deby ? is that right ??
Yes of course. Napoli-Salernitana (I forgot it before) is one of the main derbies in southern Italy: another derby is Napoli - Avellino and Napoli - Casertana (but Casertana actually plays in lower divisions so it will take a lot to southern people to see this derby again).
thanx i had an argument with my friends about which team in Italy has the most fans . some say it's (( Juve)) the other say it's (( Inter )) ,, so any one of you people lives in Italy could tell or give us a list for the most populer club in Italy... and is it right that the (( Northern )) clubs gets every things while the (( southern )) clubs . get hummered if thay win or even try to win any championship in Italy. what is (( provesili )) who win the calcio 7 times in (( 1908-1909-1910-1911-1912-1920-1921
There are a bunch of Sicilian derbies. I completely forgot about Catania and Atletico Catania. There is also Catania/Messina and Catania/Palermo. Another "derby" is Reggina/Messina - the towns are on either side of the strait between Calabria and Sicilia. Reggina/Cosenza was also a big rivalry for a long time although Cosenza's demise (and Reggina's success) has obviously wrecked that one. RE your other questions - Juventus is the most popular club in Italy. There are many theories as to why all the successful teams are all from the north while the southern teams struggle. To condense it into one word - money.
Oh, I think you are talking about Pro Vercelli. Despite having won more championships than most teams in Italy, they have not been in Serie A since 1934. Or even in Serie B since 1947. Currently, they play in Serie C2. www.provercelli.it
was going to mention all the sicilian derbies as well... is Udinese-Triestina also a derby? I know its been a while since they were in the same league....
I believe it is. The "V" derbies are all pretty big as well - Venezia/Vicenza/Verona. All in Veneto. And all in Serie B. BTW, we happened to be staying in Pistoia on our honeymoon, and Pistoiese was playing Lucchese in a Serie B game. I really wanted to go to it, but it was a night game and a Tuscan derby. Bad combo, so my husband nixed the plan. We could see the lights of the stadium from our hotel.
You can keep it forgotten as this derby won't take place anymore. Atletico Catania was cut down to size over the last 10 years, especially -of course- since they were taken out from the professional leagues for financial reasons. There is only one club in Catania now and that's the one that plays in Serie B (at least this season). Atletico Catania is now a very small amateur club that plays in Promozione (5 divisions lower than Serie B). Last season they went down from Eccellenza, and I have to add proudly that in the final league matchday my club gave them a very big help to go down ) Now there are about only 150-200 fans that still follow them, and their hopes to go back to Serie C (at least in the next 5 years) are next to null.
No one mentioned Torino - Juventus? Sure, Juve is much better than Torino today, but it hasn't always been like that.
Re: Re: qustion need to be answered OK, I missed it because Torino was spelled like Toreno and Juventus was abbreviated to Juve. I did a ctrl-F to search for Torino and Turin, and Juventus. No luck, so I figured that that derby wasn't mentioned.
i heard that there is a derby between ((Juventus & Inter )) an they call it derby italy .... i know they aren't from the same city but, i heard thet the resone is because both Juventus & Inter are the only teams in history that never been in the Seire B Is that right ??
