    I'm an Italian boy, I support Parma and I've been to the Castellani stadium in Empoli 2 times in my life, unfortunately I have to agree with you, it's a stadium that leaves you shocked by how old and botched it is. The worst thing, however, is that there are many other stadiums in Italy in similar conditions, and this for more than 30 years

    I am a tifoso empolese living in Poland since the far 2011. Italian stadiums are horrible but unfortunately there are no money for rebuilding them or there is no the will to rebuilt them. . Clubs don't have enough money, municipalities or don't have money or simply don't consider stadiums a public asset, so no worth to rebuilt:it does not bring polls. At the same time big companies like it can be computer gross in empoli don't invest money in the rebuilding in stadiums, because it is not considered an investment that brings "value". When I arrived to Poland, stadiums were pretty much like in Italy. But thanks to a mixture of uefa money, public money and private money, they built or rebuilt beautiful stadiums in the last years. A lot of stadiums here are financed by big multinational companies, like ArcelorMittal that is rebuilding the stadium of Katowice. Arceloramittal in Poland rebuilts stadiums, in Taranto kills people....

    Hope Bari wins the playoff final and comes back in Serie A because you should absolutely come to Puglia, it's an awesome place with lovely cities and the best food! The stadium is a little bit outdated but it's still very peculiar and really big, also Bari supporters create an unique atmosphere and I'm sure you'll fall in love with it.

    Unfortunately, many of the stadiums in Italy are still under the ownership of individual municipal governments. Therefore, they've been left to ruin over the years because the individual local gov'ts don't really have an incentive to change anything. Plus, here the bureaucracy is a mess which prevents anything from being done quickly - especially building a stadium.
    Hopefully this will change with more teams owning there own stadiums and land in the near future.

    Hi Josh, first time on your channel. I live betweeb Piusa and Empoli, so i can explain you a lot of things.
    1) the Arno River in Pisa is the last stop because after that goes straight to the sea.
    2) at 2:06 you ended up in the square in front of the Normale University, one of the toughest in Italy.
    3) Empoli is indeed a small town, but is literally 10 minutes away form Vinci...yep, Leonardo's birthplace...which is smaller than Empoli.

While a club like Burnley might make it to the prem once in a while it's very unlikely they could establish themselves at that level long term. I just couldn't see a town of 48,000 ppl getting anywhere near the prem league unless some super wealthy owners bank rolled them. Towns of that size in England would do well to even be in the bottom tier of the football league.

We have been in the play off final a couple of times and just one game away from it. We have been in what was the old first division though, before they changed it to the prem. In fact we were the first ever champions, and first double winners. But there are loads and loads of similar sized cities and towns that can't get into or maintain themselves in the top flight.
