MANZANO. The Manzanese officially starts from the second category. Pending the definition of the managerial changeover of the company, with Daniele Fedele who seems to be the main candidate to pick up the baton from Filippo Fabbro, the oranges have been included in group E, consisting of Buttrio, Corno, Isontina, La Fortezza, Moraro, Mossa, Piedimonte, Poggio, Serenissima, Sovodnje, Terzo, Torre, Unione Friuli Isontina, Villanova and Villesse.
Manzanese will find a place in the Udine-Gorizia group which, at the time of the composition of the calendars, was made up of 15 teams with one that, on Sunday, would have observed the rest period.
Regrouping, therefore, again of even numbers, with Manzanese who will face the team that should have observed the rest session every Sunday. In a championship that, for the orange, will start on Sunday 3 October (the opponent of the Friuli Isontina Union), or rather from the third first leg.
This is to allow you to complete the bureaucratic process related to registration, with the first two days (against Mossa and Buttrio) which will be subsequently recovered.
There will be many derbies, being the group divided in a territorial way, with the anomalous one (scheduled for October 17) against Corno calcio, a satellite company of Virtus Corno against which Manzanese has played the many “chair derbies” over the years in Excellence.
«First of all I am sorry for the Manzanese – analyzes Silvia Braida, president of Corno Calcio – because it is a defeat for everyone, despite the parochialism.
Certainly, given the situation, I am very pleased to be in our group, given that, even if in the second category, it is always a very heartfelt derby for our players.
It will be the same emotion, the same pleasure, but we will try to beat them: then, at the end of the race, we will toast together hoping that theirs can be a restart towards the return to the championships that compete with them ».
In the meantime, the mechanism relating to promotions and relegations of all categories has also been established based, of course, on what will happen in Serie D, a championship in which only Cjarlins Muzane takes part in the role of regional.
Should he not relegate (as desirable), there will be six relegations (three per group) from Excellence to Promotion, while the reverse path will be made by three teams: the two winning teams in the two groups and the winner in the category play-offs. Unchanged the number (6) of relegated from the Promotion to First with the latter which, like the Second category, will only see the winners of the league rounds promoted with no further places available through the play-offs.
