The ultras supporters did not participate in the two matches, to maintain the line of their dissent especially towards the club, an attitude also absorbed by the president of the club, above all to give tranquility to the team. The results achieved by Dal Bo's men were a concrete response beyond the controversies and the 2-3 victory in Calci, repeated the following Sunday at home against Staffoli by 2-1, overturning the score both times, earned the right to the play off, and seems to have restored the feeling with the fans. The standings see: Castilgioncello 60 points (promoted), Fornacette Casarossa 58, Acciaiolo 53, Selvatelle 52, and Fc Ponsacco 1920 51. The play-offs begin on April 27 with the knockout match between Fornacette Casarosa and Fc Ponsacco 1920. Host Fornacette will have a win or a draw to continue qualifying. For Ponsacco only a win counts, and in that case they would face the winner of the other final between Acciaiolo and Selvatelle.
