The line chosen is that of silence, at least for now. Because the microphones will only turn on after Sunday’s match, the one that could seal relegation or give hope to aOlbia ended up at the center of the news more for corporate issues than for the results – absent – on the pitch. There remain, it must be said, now few, very few chances of maintaining Serie C on the field for the whites who, however, will try to keep their chances alive until the end. Respecting their commitment and those fans who, despite the defeats, remained in the stands to support the group.
Painting
Looking at the current ranking, Olbia would be in D Series. The whites occupy the last position in the ranking, the one that leaves no escape and does not allow you to obtain an access card for the playouts. There Stop in recent weeks it has shown strong signs of life, beating Rimini, Torres and Lucchese in series, thus gaining six points ahead of Ragatzu and his companions. The distance from fifth to last place, however, is thirteen points: to give life to the post-season, Olbia should first reach the penultimate place and at the same time ensure that the gap with sixteenth place shortens to -8. At the moment in the above-mentioned box theAncona at 38 points, which precedes Recanati at 37, Vis Pesaro with 36 e Stop at 31. All teams that have achieved success in the last two days, with Pesaro and Recanati – as well as Fermana – able to beat teams in the running for the playoffs such as Perugia and Lucchese. An undertaking that Olbia will also have to try to accomplish if they want to leave the doors of Serie C open. On the path of the whites, by a twist of fate, there is the Pontedera by Max Canzi, coach who led the Gallura team to the playoffs two seasons ago. The Tuscan team has already secured a place in the post-season, but grid positions matter. Another reason to avoid missteps, an additional fact that Olbia will have to take into account.
Calendar
Two victories, the first against Pontedera, the second eventual against Spal, in front of your audience, may not be enough, however. Fermana does not have a simple calendar, first they will face Juventus Next Gen and will finish with Pescara, but also just one point of Giandonato and his teammates in the last two rounds of the tournament could lead to the relegation of the whites. Similar speech to that of the other contenders for salvation or access to the playouts. Vis Pesaro will meet Sestri Levante and Juventus, Recanatese (first Gubbio and then Entella) and Ancona (Pescara and Lucchese in series). With the Umbrians still trying to suck Sestri into the fight at 41, but already too far from Olbia to be taken into consideration in the counts. In short, there is almost no certainty about tomorrow. Everything appears in balance, even if the weight of the body seems to move backwards and favor one unexpected fall for the Gallura club. What is certain is only that after the race on Sunday 21 April, scheduled for 4.30 pm in Pontedera, there will be another declaration of the new Olbia management. Words, already announced by the Swiss board of the SwissProwhich could be important for a future that remains to be written even off the field, beyond what the last remnants of the tournament will be able to establish.
