Comments on: http://www.serieatalk.com/57/57 News and Analysis of Serie A Fri, 10 Sep 2010 03:56:14 +0000 hourly 1 By: Mando http://www.serieatalk.com/57/57#comment-27 Mando Mon, 03 Sep 2007 00:58:00 +0000 http://www.serieatalk.com/?p=57#comment-27 Thanks Joe. We'll be talking to Maurizio again before the end of the year and I'll get an update on how it's going. He's a good resource for information from Italy and he knows his football too. I think the Napoli deal is still in the works, as most of these are negotiated locally, and Napoli were holding off for whatever reason ( I assume for money), but he said that it would be sorted out sooner rather than later.

I have to say that I wasn't all that impressed with the first week but I expected some problems. They have a good "live chat" support and they are responsive. I've been able to watch some matches on demand in my own time and that's been awesome...frees up space on the DVR for my wife's General Hospital and Rescue Me episodes. Overall, a very nice interview. I would have liked to heard more about when Napoli <b>home</b> matches will start to be broadcast and why they haven't secured Napoli's rights outside of Italy. We're all speculating on BigSoccer that it's because he wants to be paid like Inter, Milan and Juve but who really knows. Hey, Mando, well done on the latest podcast with SerieA.tv.

It's almost as if the tournament doesn't exist. Either the "smaller" sides don't give it much thought because they need to focus on avoiding relegation, or the "bigger" sides don't give it any emphasis because they've got their eyes on the scudetto or Champions League or EUFA Cup.
