Goodbye Leafy. La Pergolettese: “Your voice will resonate for a long time. Guide us from above”

In the aftermath of the passing of the general director of the Pergolettese, Cesare Fogliazzathe same club wanted to publish via Instagram his memory of the historic manager:

“Twelve seasons full of sporting satisfactions, those of Cesare Fogliazza at the helm of Pergolettese. Two promotions from D to C (2012/13 – 2018/19), one playoff won (2017/18), one lost in the semi-final (2016/17 ) and above all five consecutive seasons in Lega Pro. After the brilliant seasons at the helm of Pizzighettone, with which he twice came close to promotion to Serie B, in 2012 his arrival in Crema after the failure of the then Pergocrema under the Briganti management and thanks to the interest of the then President Mario Macalli who invited him to lead the newly formed Pergolettese (original name of the Club), bringing the Serie D sports title to Crema. He immediately demonstrated his great knowledge of the world of football, setting up a team that, surprising everyone, won the championship under the expert and competitive guidance of Roberto Venturato, launched by him as coach at the helm of Pizzighettone, after the sudden death of Marino Bracchi. The C2 year coincided with the reform of the championships and saw the yellow-blue team relegated to Serie D. Five championships among the amateurs with two playoffs reached (one of which was won) until the triumphant season with the victory in the play-off in Novara with Modena and the conquest of the Serie C Lega Pro: his greatest masterpiece, with Matteo Contini on the bench, in a championship in which Reggiana and Modena were the big favourites.

Cesare, you will no longer be physically present, but your voice will resonate for a long time in the changing rooms of Voltini and Bertolotti.

Thank you Cesare, you will always be in our hearts and now you will guide us from above”
