It'd be nice to see Aironi get at least one win this season and they won't have a better chance than this. They've been far from impressive this season. Sure, it's their first year as a squad, but I would've expected some progress to have been made by Christmas.
 
I think that in the second part of the season Aironi will be more competitive. I predicted it would be 2 or 3 mths before they started to get points, so here's hoping! Friday won't be pretty but it will be close. In any case, get out the prosecco and panettone to cheer in Capo d'Anno!
