It's been a while since I've last done this. It will be divided into two parts.
This is Part I...enjoy!
Juventus host a familiar team tonight. Their stadium is the last place where Juventus played a Serie A match. This is a southern team, that once had a Serie A top scorer that out scored the legendary Batistuta. You don't believe? Ladies and gentlemen, A.S. Bari Calcio
Bari is the capital of the region called Puglia. People from Puglia are known as Pugliese. Other teams that come from Puglia, are Lecce, Brindisi, Foggia, and Taranto.
Here's a panoramic view of the city -
Famous Pugliesi (did I get that plural "i" correct?
) who come from Bari include Antonio Cassano...
...ex-Juve, Antonio Chimenti...
...and ex-Glasgow Rangers legend - Lorenzo Amoruso
Although NOT Pugliese, Gianluca Zambrotta spent 2 seasons at Bari before joining Juve...
David Platt played for one season with Bari scoring 11 goals in 29 games, before being snapped up by Juventus. (sorry couldn't find pics of him in a Bari kit!)
Bari play their football in the San Nicola stadium. It's a huge ground with a race track, pretty much like the Delle Alpi. It holds around 58,000 spectators.
Some fan coreografia at the San Nicola taken during the late 1990s...
Here's a match ticket for Bari-Juve in 1997-98 season
I won't go into too much detail about Bari's history, rather I'll just get to the interesting part and focus on the 1990's which was perhaps Bari's better days. The likes of Phil Masinga, Klas Ingesson, rising talents in Nicola Ventola, Zambrotta, Cassano, Spinesi, as well as notable performances by their stalwart defenders such as Duccio Innocenti, all contributed to Bari's survival years in Serie A. But if there are three names that count for something with the Bari tifosi, it's their three most prominent strikers:

Joao Paulo (Brazil, also known as Donizetti)
"Il Cobra" - Sandro Tovalieri. 40 goals in 2 and half seasons with the club. 17 of them were in Serie A 1994-1995. He left for Atalanta the following season, scoring only six goals.
There was another hero that was to etch his name in the history books of Calcio. Igor Protti, the CapoCanonniere of Serie A 1995-1996 along with Italy star Beppe Signori on 24 goals. Unfortunately Bari got relegated that year. I still have the World Soccer magazine where they quote the Bari president, "Our situation is bizarre, we have the country's top scorer yet we're bottom of the table."
