Explain to me briefly the following article
“The season of Palermo has not been a failure”. This was stated by Palermo’s general manager Giovanni Gardini in his end-of-season financial report entrusted to the official website of the rosanero club. “We started the season – he explained – with the goal of being competitive for Serie A and we came close, because we played a semi-final, lost against a team that then went to Serie A and deservedly earned promotion”. Therefore, Gardini emphasizes, “a result that we had set for ourselves”.
“We had too many ups and downs during the season – Gardini added – we were not consistent and this penalized us. I believe that every season leaves regrets and regrets, but the important thing is that we believe we have taken a step forward compared to last season. We are also bitter because we believe that more could and should have been done. But this does not mean that the season was a failure”.
Regarding the goal for the next season, Gardini said that it remains “to improve. This means that we will have to be even more competitive for promotion to Serie A. But it should not be a burden: Palermo will arrive in Serie A, this is recognized by everyone, everyone is aware of it, but we do not go to Serie A just because we are called Palermo. All components, from me representing the company to all those who work in the sports department, including all those who work in the business area and all those who support Palermo, must support the team”.
“We will be able to go to Serie A – Gardini added – when we are able to positively manage the negative moment. If we let ourselves be overwhelmed by pressure and negativity that can surround us, we will not go anywhere. When Brunori said at the end of the Venice match that we lacked balance, he meant that we must be a united group, inside and outside the locker room. We must turn pressure into energy”.
