MOST MEMORABLE MOMENT<\/strong><\/p>\n The two fans agree that what happened on 18 May 2018<\/strong> is the most memorable moment from Parma\u2019s recent history: \u201cThat day, we cried as Foggia came away with a draw in Frosinone. It was an incredible season where we earned our third consecutive promotion, and it ended in thrilling fashion. We\u2019ll never forget it.<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n <\/p>\n A finale that had Gialloblu fans throughout the world celebrating and dreaming, and the hope is that a similar chapter is just around the corner so we can experience that joy together again.<\/p>\n ” data_box_twitch=”null” data_box_instagram=”null” data_box_tiktok=”null” data_box_twitter=”null” data_box_youtube=”null” data_box_facebook=”null” ][\/swp_base_p][swp_image id=”8″ type=”image” order=”9″ name=”image” option_component_anchor=”null” option_component_padding=”[]” data_box_image=”https:\/\/www.parmacalcio1913.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/_heros\/12_tifosi-20240202114226.webp” data_box_image_alt=”null” data_box_image_description=”null” ][\/swp_image][swp_base_p id=”7″ type=”base_p” order=”8″ name=”base_p” option_component_anchor=”null” option_component_padding=”[]” data_box_title=”null” data_box_subtitle=”null” data_box_text=”<\/p>\n PARMA AND THE CITY<\/strong><\/p>\n As regards his bond with the city, Nathan had the following to say: \u201cGiven I live in London, it isn\u2019t always easy to come to Parma, see the city and visit the stadium, but I became a season ticket holder for the first time last season and managed to watch <\/em>ten games live<\/em><\/strong>. I\u2019m also hoping to see ten games this season. I enjoy visiting Parma and also introduced my family and friends to the city. They have always liked coming here, too<\/em>.\u201d Giovanni feels the same way: \u201cI now live in Milan, so it\u2019s easier for me to come here often. I like being in Parma: it\u2019s a calm and beautiful city with extraordinary food. The people here are easy-going, and there\u2019s a great atmosphere<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n ” data_box_twitch=”null” data_box_instagram=”null” data_box_tiktok=”null” data_box_twitter=”null” data_box_youtube=”null” data_box_facebook=”null” ][\/swp_base_p][swp_image id=”6″ type=”image” order=”7″ name=”image” option_component_anchor=”null” option_component_padding=”[]” data_box_image=”https:\/\/www.parmacalcio1913.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/_heros\/23_tifosi-20240202114011.webp” data_box_image_alt=”null” data_box_image_description=”null” ][\/swp_image][swp_base_p id=”5″ type=”base_p” order=”6″ name=”base_p” option_component_anchor=”null” option_component_padding=”[]” data_box_title=”null” data_box_subtitle=”null” data_box_text=”<\/p>\n IDOLS<\/strong><\/p>\n The duo then spoke about the champions that made them fall in love with our Club: \u201cIn addition to <\/em>Buffon<\/em><\/strong>, I\u2019ll never forget <\/em>Lucarelli<\/em><\/strong>, a Parma stalwart who loved the Club and, during the most difficult moments, showed how much the team meant to him<\/em>,\u201d continued Giovanni. \u201cAs regards the current squad, I like<\/em> Bernab\u00e9 <\/em><\/strong>and <\/em>Delprato<\/em><\/strong> in particular.\u201d \u201cI agree with the names Giovanni mentioned,\u201d said Nathan. \u201cHowever, I\u2019d also like to add two players: <\/em>Crespo <\/em><\/strong>and <\/em>Gilardino<\/em><\/strong>. They were complete and extraordinary strikers. I always enjoyed seeing Gilardino\u2019s <\/em>violin <\/em><\/strong>celebration! I\u2019m a fan of a lot of our current players, but if I had to choose just a couple, I\u2019d pick <\/em>Bonny <\/em><\/strong>and <\/em>Man<\/em><\/strong>.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n ” data_box_twitch=”null” data_box_instagram=”null” data_box_tiktok=”null” data_box_twitter=”null” data_box_youtube=”null” data_box_facebook=”null” ][\/swp_base_p][swp_image id=”4″ type=”image” order=”5″ name=”image” option_component_anchor=”null” option_component_padding=”[]” data_box_image=”https:\/\/www.parmacalcio1913.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/_heros\/3_tifosi-20240202113824.webp” data_box_image_alt=”null” data_box_image_description=”null” ][\/swp_image][swp_base_p id=”3″ type=”base_p” order=”4″ name=”base_p” option_component_anchor=”null” option_component_padding=”[]” data_box_title=”null” data_box_subtitle=”null” data_box_text=”<\/p>\n \u201cMy mother has Italian roots and, as a kid, I always wanted to be a goalkeeper,\u201d<\/em> said Giovanni. \u201cItalian football was often shown in Scotland, and when I saw Buffon playing for Parma, I told myself I wanted to be like him. From that moment, I started following Parma and haven\u2019t stopped since.
