The objectives have been outlined. From now on, however, the facts will count. SwissPro's Olbia will ask for a repechage in Serie C, to aim - if the request is successful - for the playoffs.

Plan B is to face the Serie D championship to win it and immediately return to the professional ranks. But no one likes Plan B in Olbia. Starting from the new ownership of the Gallura club, which after yesterday's press conference, in which it clarified, especially through Benno Räber, the program for the future - from the debt restructuring that emerged after an in-depth analysis of the accounts to the next football season, until the new stadium is built, complete with a ready-made project – he doesn't intend to waste time. Let alone an entire year among the amateurs.

The first moves will be to enroll Olbia in the Serie D championship, the basic condition for requesting a repechage, and to identify the sporting director who will choose the coach to build the team together. “That he will have to play modern, more offensive football,” Räber underlined yesterday. This being the case, and despite the openness of the Swiss lawyer towards the players and members of the technical staff, very little will remain of Olbia from the year that ended with direct relegation after 8 consecutive seasons in Serie C.

And, perhaps, this is also right: given that with relegation the contracts in place after 30 June will become waste paper, too many things have gone wrong in the last 12 months. “Mistakes have been made and we have to start from these to plan the new season,” says Räber. The word now passes to the facts.
