�NAPOLI IS OUR PRIDE>>




The promotion of Napoli worldwide thanks to the web.

NAPOLI IS OUR PRIDE.

"We're from Napoli paisan"..........from the US with passion and written in
Neapolitan dialect: "De Laurentiis,.... a great man": New Jersey is in touch,
"tu vuo’ fa’ ll’american.." (you wanna be an american): "Sfogliatella and
Serie B." From Australia with pride: Here's Sydney "De Laurentiis,,, Ambassador
". Over to you Adelaide: "We have a pastiera (Neapolitan cake) with our scarves
around our necks......" From England, they yell: "Pizza, Napoli and thank you
Reja". From Switzerland: "Blue cake, and Serie B". From Diego's Argentina: "
Thankyou, champion". From Careca's Brazil: "Napoli, Napoli and always Napoli"
and on it goes to Venezuela, France, Scotland and even Japan and Estonia.

Wherever man has set his foot, and not by neccessity man of Neapolitan origins,
they are yelling "Forza Napoli" in all the worlds languages. We, Corriere dello
Sport, invited them to comment in collaboration with CNI, the brainchild of
chemical engineer Elio Lo Conte, a man who's blood runs Neapolitan blue. We just
asked simply what the fans thought of the team, the coach and the president and
what they were feeling about promotion. Three thousand responses were received
and forwarded on. It would take a whole newspaper to print them all !! So here's
a selection. The whole world has a bit of Napoli in them........how about you??

Guadalajara, Messico: “We're from Napoli paisan, now Serie A”.

Gennaro Della Gatta, Radioshow Host, New York: «I run a radio show in New York
from 4:30 - 5:30 New York time. This week I will speak only about the 60,000

is business. I have complete faith in Reja and think highly of Marino».

the days of Maradona, I don't think there is much to celebrate but rather it is
time to reinforce the side in order to compete in Serie B».

David D'Antonio, 27 yrs old, Financial consultant, Melbourne, Australia: « It's

have faith in the team owner».

man who knows football, to me he is like a second Moggi. The good times are
coming».

football inferno. DL has invested good money in what was a failed football team
so credit to him, let's keep it going to Serie A and Europe» .

Giulio Picolli, 65 yrs old, pensioner, Paramus, New Jersey: «I supported Napoli
for 50 years. Rai International ignores us too often so I follow the team by all
means available, especially internet. Congratulations to all» .

but let's get back into Serie A. I will wear the new Napoli shirt even next week

great job rebuilding the team. We need reinforcements to be competitive in Serie
B next year» .
