In 40 Serie B participations, the Brianza were the only ones to never have risen to the top flight. It is the highest point of a glorious history passed from Casiraghi and Ganz to Massaro and Costacurta, the golden years with Galliani and the flashback with Berlusconi. The common thread is the protagonist of yesterday on the field and today on the bench
Monza had a record that no one envied them: they were the team with the most championships in Serie B without ever having been promoted. Forty participations, never a leap higher. Like the slightly nerdy guy who goes to the party and nobody ranks him. A few years there, two or three in a row, and then down again, trying to regain a place in the sun. Then they came.
