Bologna sacks Papadopulo

Soccer Betting Lines

10/21/2009 - Bologna, Italy (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Struggling Bologna have fired coach Giuseppe Papadopulo after winning only one of their first eight Serie A games this season.

Former player Franco Colomba has been named as Papadopulo's successor having earlier gained coaching experience with Reggina, Vicenza, Napoli, Livorno, Cagliari and Verona.

He took over at Ascoli midway through last season and guided the club away from the Serie B relegation zone.

"Bologna announce they have removed Papadopulo from his position, but send him warm thanks for the work he has done for the club," read a statement from the club.

"The bench has been assigned to Franco Colomba, who will be presented to the press on Wednesday."

Bologna's only victory this season came against last-placed and winless Livorno and they slumped to a 2-1 defeat at Napoli on Sunday.
