Marked for Davide Macrì

Market1 Feb 2027

Luca Martelli agrees terms with Benevento

The clubs have settled the fee and he has settled his wages. What remains is a medical and a photograph, and around Forli people have started saying his name in the past tense.

Market1 Feb 2027

Davide Macrì puts it in writing

“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at Forli, and it is not being withdrawn.

The dugout1 Feb 2027

Davide Macrì keeps the receipts

“I remember the meeting. I remember exactly what was promised in it.” Forli may remember it differently, which is precisely the problem.

Boardroom1 Feb 2027

Deadline passes with 0 signed and 0 gone

That is the business done at Forli until the window opens again. Whether it was enough will be answered on Saturdays rather than in a column, and the first Saturday is close.

Match30 Jan 2027

A bad afternoon for Forli against Ravenna

1‑2 to Ravenna, and no complaints worth printing. The performance asked for nothing more than it got.

The dugout1 Feb 2027

The manager makes an example of Luca Martelli

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

The dugout1 Feb 2027

Paolo Fabbri answers for it

“The supporters are entitled to be angry. So am I. We will put it right.” 1‑2, a manager saying the necessary things, and a dressing room that heard a different version of them.

Transfer targets1 Feb 2027

A loan move for Ezequiel Ramírez is in the works

Forli have made the call to All Boys. No fee, a share of the wages, and a spare shirt in the position where the squad has been thinnest all season.

Squad1 Feb 2027

Giulio Veliaj wants to go home

“I have tried. I have really tried, and every day I wake up in the wrong place.” Nobody at Forli can coach that out of a man, and nobody there is pretending to.

From our football correspondent Upbeat

Match16 Jan 2027

Forli run riot against Livorno

4‑0, and the margin flattered nobody — it could have carried another goal or two without complaint. Afternoons like this are why people keep coming.

The dugout18 Jan 2027

Carlo De Risio: that is not what I was promised

“Things were said to me before I signed. I am not going to repeat them, but I remember all of them.” Forli have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Player ratings18 Jan 2027

Ninety minutes of Alessandro Giovannini at his very best

Marked 8.56. Players have careers without a single afternoon like this in them, and he has just had one in front of everybody at Forli.

Transfer targets18 Jan 2027

A loan move for Riyad Idrissi is in the works

Forli have made the call to Cagliari. No fee, a share of the wages, and a spare shirt in the position where the squad has been thinnest all season.

Transfer targets18 Jan 2027

Forli try to borrow Rosen Bozhinov

Pisa have been asked whether they would lend him. Loans are agreed quickly or not at all, and this one will be one or the other by the weekend.

The dugout18 Jan 2027

Paolo Fabbri: “That is the standard”

“That is what I want every week. Not the result, the way they went about it.” The manager, after 4‑0, already talking about the next one.

The dugout18 Jan 2027

No hiding place for Abdel Rachid Zagré

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Abdel Rachid Zagré, and the manager let it.

The dugout18 Jan 2027

The plan did not have a place for Luca Martelli

Nobody at Forli is suggesting he is out of form. The manager simply wanted somebody with a different set of qualities for ninety specific minutes, and there is nothing a player can train to fix that.

Player ratings18 Jan 2027

Robertino Giacomini runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 10. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

The dugout16 Nov 2026

Nicola Mandrelli says Forli went back on their word

“I was told what my role would be, and I signed on that basis. It has not happened.” A grievance with a date attached is the hardest kind to settle.

Squad16 Nov 2026

Words exchanged at Forli

Jacopo Scaccabarozzi and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

The dugout16 Nov 2026

Davide Macrì 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.

Looking ahead16 Nov 2026

Nicola Mandrelli goes back to face Torres

Every squad has one of these fixtures for somebody every season. This one is Nicola Mandrelli’s: the club that knew him first, the supporters who will decide in the first minute whether to applaud, and Forli needing him to play as if none of it matters.

The dugout16 Nov 2026

Matteo Onofri knocks on the manager's door

“It had gone on long enough. I would rather have it out than leave it sitting there.” Ten minutes behind a closed door at Forli, and both men came out saying it was fine.

The dugout16 Nov 2026

A door opens for Nicola Farinelli

He asked about his future and was given an answer with minutes in it. The manager has now made a promise in a building where promises are remembered, and the clock on it has started.

The dugout2 Nov 2026

Davide Macrì: that is not what I was promised

“Things were said to me before I signed. I am not going to repeat them, but I remember all of them.” Forli have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Boardroom2 Nov 2026

Wages swallow 147% of the Forli income

Every club pays most of what it earns to its players. Paying nearly all of it is a different arrangement, and it has ended the same way every time it has been tried.

The terraces2 Nov 2026

One of their own: Abdel Rachid Zagré

He is 22 and the ground already sings his name, which is a thing that happens to local boys and almost never to signings. Everything from here is measured against an affection he did nothing to earn except be from here.

Match31 Oct 2026

Abdel Rachid Zagré sends Forli past Latina

It finished 1‑0, and it was Abdel Rachid Zagré’s afternoon: on the scoresheet when it mattered, and the reason the points belong to Forli.

Player ratings2 Nov 2026

Gabriele Perretta was unplayable

Successful dribbles: 18. He went past people as if he had been told there was a prize for it, and by the end the full-back had stopped pretending to try.

The dugout2 Nov 2026

The manager makes an example of Lorenzo Saporetti

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

Player ratings2 Nov 2026

Abdel Rachid Zagré stands above it all

Some games turn on a moment; this one turned on a man. 7.72 on the card, and the Forli support went home talking about one name.

The dugout2 Nov 2026

A satisfied Paolo Fabbri

“The players deserve the credit. My job was easy today.” It was not, and everybody in the room knew it; after 1‑0, Paolo Fabbri could afford to be generous.

Squad2 Nov 2026

Francesco Menarini loses the armband

The captaincy has been taken off Francesco Menarini. Forli will call it a decision about the team; a dressing room reads it as a verdict on a man.
