The Trapani Gazette
Match12 Dec 2026
No end in sight to Trapani's wait for a win
13 matches now without a victory, and the excuses have worn thinner than the patience. Somebody at Trapani has to find a result from somewhere.
Match14 Dec 2026
Trapani sink to position 19
7 points, and a fixture list that is running out. The mathematics are not yet cruel, but they are no longer kind.
Match12 Dec 2026
Casarano punish Trapani for switching off
2 goals to the good, and then a slow surrender of everything that had been earned. Salvatore Di Mitri will not be the one blamed for it, but nobody at Trapani escapes the conversation that follows a collapse like this.

62 days out for Angelo Cirafici after a fracture
A bone, which is the one injury with a calendar attached. Trapani will name a return date and, unusually for this business, will probably be right about it.

Salvatore Di Mitri, 20, plays like he has been here for years — 7.72
A mark of 7.72 means one thing beside a twenty-nine-year-old's name and something else entirely beside a 20-year-old's. Nobody at the ground needed telling which this was.

Up for the corner, and Pasqualino Ortisi delivers — 7.53
Centre-halves are allowed forward twice a season and are judged on what they do when they get there. Pasqualino Ortisi scored, was marked 7.53, and got back before anybody noticed he had gone.

Tempers go at Trapani
Cesare Galeotti was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Riccardo Forte falls out with a teammate over standards
The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Federico Vázquez gets it from the manager
“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.
