Well, everything in in place now! A couple of weeks ago, Bari clinched their position in Serie A for next season. Yesterday they clinched the top position in the standings for Serie B this season!
The city has been awash with everything white and red (biancorosso) for weeks now and it is has been fun to watch the enthusiasm grow over the past couple of weeks! Now we can look forward to some of the biggest teams in European soccer coming to Bari next year to square off against Bari and their fans! We hope to get to a couple of the games.
One other part that makes it special for Bari is the fact that their bitter rivals from the south, Lecce, have been relegated to Serie B for next season! I think they would like to be able to play them, but it is sweet to see them going down in the same season that Bari is going up!
We will try to keep you posted on events next season as they happen.
