An abysmal way to end the season saw Napoli miss out on the Champions League by ONE POINT! A goal was needed to secure third, but instead we finish 5th and in the Europa League next season. Raffa Rispo and Ralph Bizzarro in The Rant was emotional, upset and frustrated. And we even get the official word that Gennaro Gattuso is leaving the club during the show! Very emotional!
Even though Napoli's season is over on a sour note, whats not sour is the appreciation and LOVE you've all shown us, and we salute you the listeners and viewers and TIFOSI of Raff N Raff! We pay tribute and thank all our fantastic guests as we say goodbye to Season 20/21!

YES!!! You read our title right, folks! Ken Cioffredi has come back to Far From Vesuvius and he joins Raffa Rispo right in time to (hopefully) celebrate Napoli achieving the seemingly impossible as a win over Verona this Sunday will see the Partenopei return to Champions League Football. One more win! We break down the possibilities, our starting XI and opposition. We also go over who is more improved from within this season, and of course GATTUSO TALK! Nobody comes into this podcast without talking about Gattuso! All this, plus questions from some of our amazing supporters, as this season's end draws near!

This week on FFV, it's just Raffa in the house as he covers Napoli's disappointing draw to Cagliari. The draw, along with Juve's late winner in Udine see's us slip to 5th, but a win at Spezia would not only get us back to top 4 regardless of Juve-Milan, but it would also have us get redemption for their surprising win at the Maradona in January. Also, Raffa puts a seal on the manager talks, for now, we answer your #AskFFV questions and more.

We pick Jerry's brain about the match, Napoli as a whole, why isn't Politano called up to la nazionale and, of course, Gattuso! All this and more on this edition of The Raff N Raff Rant!

In this epidose, Raffa and Ralph break down Gattuso and each Napoli players season so far in the style of analyzing stocks. What players stock has risen or fallen? Should we hold or sell? Who is a Blue Chip stock? Lots of hot takes and obvious takes too. The viewers chime in too which brings some good comedy relief. We also chat about Napoli getting back on track with an away 2-0 win over Sampdoria at the weekend, after losing to Juventus last week. We also read results of a Twitter poll we put out asking what's better, Conte style/win a scudetto, or Sarriball/attractive football?
Look for a special edition RaNt later this week with special guest, Nima Tavalley of Italian Football Podcast and Sempre Inter, as we preview a very big match vs the new and improved, and next Scudetto winners, Inter Milano at the Maradona this Sunday! HUGE weekend with BIG Champions League implications so don't miss that!

With Napoli and the rest of club football on break, it's international football time again. In our 2nd installment of NazioNapoli, Raff N Raff bring us a very special guest in Rutgers University alum, former quarterback and captain of the Rutgers Football (American) Team and BIG TIME Napoli and Italia fan, Giovanni Rescigno.
The former Rutgers #17 (a nod to Hamsik) is currently playing in the IFL - Italian Football League with Rhinos Milano, and we get a great lesson in all things Italian gridiron. Then, we get to business about our Napoli ragazzi with their national teams, focusing heavily on Italy's two World Cup 2022 Qualifying wins. One home to Northern Ireland and the other an historic away win vs. Bulgaria, both 2-0 wins.
Check back with us later this week as we bring a 2nd NazioNapoli to round out Italy's final qualifer of the break, a home fixture against Lithuania, as well as round up all the other partenopei with their nation, and look ahead to Napoli hosting Crotone Saturday April 3 and then the BIG matchday 3 with Juventus FINALLY coming up on Wednesday, April 7!
You can catch our new buddy Giovanni Rescigno on Twitter @G_Rescigno17.
