		All of Serie C is known as the Professional League.
		Life was tough in Serie B however (it contained the likes of Lazio, Palermo, Bari, and Brescia), and Sorrento finished in the bottom 3 and were relegated.
		Spending the 1970s in Serie C mid-table obscurity, the end of the 1977-78 season saw Serie C get split into its two levels present today and Sorrento were one of eight teams to be dropped into Serie C2 for 1978-79.

	BigSoccer Boards - Napoli in Serie C1 [R]

		C1 A and B are equal and only distinguish between North and South (or at least used to until this year).
		Serie C rules insist that clubs in their Division must field their sides with shirts that run from 1 to 11.

	The Voyageurs: Canadian Soccer Supporters - Fiorentina in Serie B??
		Catania was relagated to serie C in May, promoted to serie B in June, relagated to serie C again in July and promoted back to serie B in August.
		Calcio is in chaos this summer with the unprecedented decision to extend Serie B from 20 to 24 teams.
		I presume the main reason why serie B teams have a problem with a 24 team league is that it would make it more difficult to win promotion to serie A (more competition) and more likely to get relegated (you would have to relagate at least 6 teams).

	ESPN.com Soccernet Column by Roberto Gotta: This is the Modena world
		In the truest possible underdog fashion, Modena were a Serie C1 team only two years ago, and in the news for the wrong reasons, when one of their players nearly died after being punched by an opponent outside the dressing room following a game at Como.
		Five of them are still regular or part-time starters, which in Italy is as rare as any coach actually admitting his team lost a game deservedly and not because of obscure machinations by men in shades and white coats (or fl jerseys and shorts and a whistle between their lips, as it is).
		And while Serie A may be increasingly torn by controversies and shameful invectives between clubs, officials and referees still has cause for celebration, as all four of its teams went through to the second phase of the competition-formerly-known-as-the-European Cup.

		That is a fate that will not now befall Como, who were initially excluded from Serie C1 due to their financial problems.
		This is increasingly unlikely, as the Federation has made it clear that SSC Napoli is bankrupt and therefore unable to hang on to its slot in the second division.

		Following that achievement Genoa were unexpectedly demoted to Serie B at the end of the 1994/95 season following a relegation play-off with Padova Calcio and have remained in the second division ever since - until Saturday's disastrous events.
