Positives: he's not Daniele Pradè. Negatives: he might be Fabio Paratici. www.violanation.com/fiorentina-l...
Fabio Paratici might actually join Fiorentina
Is this the man to lift the Viola out of the hole they’ve dug for themselves?

That's very reassuring.
Don't worry. Fabio Paratici will save EVERYTHING.
Even the most understanding and supportive fan base will eventually call out blithering incompetence. www.violanation.com/fiorentina-l...

Both too much and not enough, and both in the worst possible way. It's going to be so much fun*.

Storied club? Financial issues in the 90s and a relegation? Last place in the league? Messed up stadium? Fiorentina fans, if you're looking for a team in Finland, this should feel like falling into your own bed (which, because you're a Fiorentina fan, you've covered in venomous snakes).
🇫🇮 Things have gone from bad to worse for FC Haka, one of Finland's most storied clubs, who finished last in the Veikkausliiga & were relegated.

Now a teenager has set fire to their stadium, burning down an entire stand, damaging the artificial turf & causing significant costs!

A reminder that the mister’s audience isn’t necessarily the fans.

We're done with rational explanations for anything about this team. www.violanation.com/fiorentina-l...
Blame those pesky Etruscan ghosts for the newest delays in stadium construction
The only explanation for the impossibility of getting this done is the furious dead of a pre-Roman civilization.
