So yes Empoli beat 10 man Parma (red card 31 mins), 2-1. For the moment Empoli (17th, 28 pts) climb out of the drop zone, to go 17th, and 1 point ahead of Lecce.
Lecce (18th, 27 pts) play tonight away at Verona.
Venezia (19th, 26 pts) also play tonight hosting Fiorentina
2 games left for Empoli who face Monza (last, already relegated) away, and in the final game host Verona (15th). Verona 5 pts above the drop zone, will hopefully have nothing meaningful to play for by that match.
Who knows both Libby and Old's clubs may avoid the drop.

And yeah have noticed Empoli's home games often seem only half full, so doesn't give the impression of being a big vibrant city.
Isn't Sheffield a big uni town? You don't get half full stadiums in the EPL or even in The Championship.
Blades (up 3-0) host Bristol City in their promotion playoff 2nd leg tonight.
Sunderland up 2-1 host Coventry in te other playoff semi 2nd leg.
Wood, Bindon, Stamenic, Gray, Paulsen and Dibley-Dias at EPL clubs. Free agents Crocombe, Tzanev & Waine who knows. Rumours about possible UK moves for Bell, Libby & Sims. Could be a host of Kiwis around the top 2-3 tiers of the UK football pyramid next seson.
