“It doesn’t metter where you play, neither do the category…” a famous Boys chant says that. The Club took this words seriously and already opened the next season tickets sale at the same price of this year.

We can be in serie A, B, C or D, we can be in a bad period, in a strange season, whatever, but we always find the way to lead in this kind of ventures.
Parma Calcio – in the person of Giuseppe Squarcia, Parma Calcio Supporters Liaision Officer and Football Social Responsability – and Centro Coordinamento Parma Clubs will bring 30 fans with disabilities in the away stand in Ferrara. This is an experimental trial for a more inclusive stadium experience.
It can seem a really small thing but it is not. If accessing the home matches for disabled fans is becoming easier years by years, away matches have a sort of filter for them, represented by the travel, the access to the stand, the helper and the infrastructures.
With the availability by Spal, Coordinamento and Parma Calcio will give the chance to 30 fans from Cooperativa I Girasoli and Fiorente and from Paralympic Parma team to take part to this stadium experience.
After “Parma for Specials” and “Always with Blue”, anther great venture by the Club on the social side. We are really proud of this.
Botond Balogh, Bianca Giulia Bardin and Margherita Brscic took part to a garbage collection on Parma pebbly riverbed taking part to a the project Plastic Pull by Piantando, partner of Parma Calcio women team.
On this specific activity, the players and a group of Club employees collected 230 kg of garbage in a specific area of Parma surroundings, that will encrease the total amount of 5 tons collected by the Plastic Pull project.
A (silent) commendable activity by the Club, that enforce the link with the territory. Well done.
On Russian YouTube channel Nobel a special show dedicated to Gianluigi Buffon was just released. Hundred minutes with interview to him, Sandro Melli and others. Italian subtitles.
Thanks to Dimitry for the hint
Yesterday Marco Ferrari published on his Facebook page a post to show his support for the Team and where he remembers us some truths and that it is in bad times that we use to show the best of us. Because we have never been a “normal” team, so nothing is prevented.
“It is when you are down and all the others think you are dead and laugh at you that the will to get up and fight should rise strongly. We have never been a normal team. Parma is synonymous of bad falls, but also of memorable feats. And it is in worst moments that we often could give the best of us. It is time to find that spirit. We can’t accept any destiny that is not the one we can still write by ourselves. Parma Calcio is a great group, made by strong players, led by a manager that is a stone in the tempest, prepared by a staff that would jump into the flames for Parma and supported by a great President, full of energy, resources, grit and enthusiasm. We need nothing more than this to go to war. And I would not exchage any of this elements with our opponents.
Come on Parma! Ten fights to write another piece of history.
Forza Parma. Sempre.”
We endorse all of it.

“THE BOYS TOWARDS 43 YEARS.
Two months have passed since the last trip to Turin. Two months without headquarters, without parts, without aggregation. In the face we have the prospect of remaining for a long period without stages, with a thousand uncertainties as to what it will be like when they reopen, and if we could go back to experiencing them from Ultras as we have always done. The first step will be to reopen the headquarters, return to live and reason from the Group, find the incentives and motivations to survive, try to reach all our activities, those that we will manage a rate anyway, increasing those extra cheering, to get to next year to still have the stimuli and the need to continue to keep the headquarters open. In August there will be 43 years of the boys’ life, 43 years in which the boys became communities, developing belonging to the young Parmigiani and becoming the reference point for all Parma fans. Now it is everyone’s job to remain united, to continue to be a community, not individual fans, to preserve traditions and defend, we remember that what we have earned and where we have come in these years. We will try to organize aggregation moments, as soon as possible, in order to find ourselves again, and not to lose the sense of aggregation and friendship that has been created over the years, cheering together in the Curva Nord Matteo Bagnaresi.
On May 27th will be the thirty years of our first promotion in Serie A. We had plans to celebrate this day, but unfortunately nothing can be done, it is not the right time. However, we thought of a way to remember the 30 years of the promotion, a day like Vicenza, 4 May 86, Wembley, the Bologna playoff, the bankruptcy, the promotion in Spezia, the days that made our community great.
We decided to make a scarf for May 27, to fix one of the most important days lived by the boys and our city in history, a memory for those who come, despite everything, want to continue to keep our values, our traditions alive and the ideal Ultras of our city: THE BOYS PARMA 1977.
30 YEARS FROM 27TH MAY 1990
This date will always be special for Parma, from more than 30 years it is tattooed in our town history. A day that elevated Parma, his Ultras and his fans to a pure pleasure state, a day that gave us the first memorable promotion in Serie A, that launched us into following 30 years, full of satisfactions, from both ultras and football points of view. A day that gave us the most important trophy, the Ghetto banner, main symbol of hated Reggiana cousin. […] We were in Tardini, not in Wembley, but what Parma lives that 27th may 1990, it was maybe the best day for Boys Parma 1977 in our 43 years.
We decided to celebrate 30 years from 27th may 1990 with a scarf that could honor both conquers and keep those memories alive.
The scarf is a limited edition and who is interested in it can write to Boys Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/CrUsAdErS
FROM 1977 PRUDLY BOYS PARMA”
As we published yesterday in advance, a group of Chinese fans sent a pack with 2000 mask to Parma Calcio at Collecchio training center.
What we still didn’t tell is what was inside the pack [translated from this article on Official Parma website]: ”Many support messages under the same motto ‘Chinese fans are with you against Corona Virus’. Here some example of permanent memories for every fans that lives far away his football love: pictures that represents those chances in which they could get in contact with what they care. Someone taking a pic with D’Aversa, some other with some legend of the past, someone proudly wearing a scarf or a crusaders jersey. A great gesture that, we can assure you, moved everyone. Thansk Nevin, thanks Parma Fans from China”
As you know we don’t use to talk about current players, but we do like to remember and follow former players, especially if they wrote important pages of our history.
Talking about recent history, one of them is Emanuele Calaiò, the Archer, that finally appeared on Instagram with an official account. It is almost the first time we hear from him since his farewell letter to the fans. Yesterday he posted the video of the goal in the extra time against Pordenone -perfectly frozen by Lorenzo Cattani in this pic – what a memory!
He is already been listed on our “Former players social accounts” list, where you can find many others of our football legends.
