An agonizing season is brought to an end. Lazio are safe - but just barely. It's hard to recall a more desperate and debilitating season than this. Despite finishing twelfth, Lazio needed a win against Livorno on the penultimate day of the season to guarantee their safety.

The facts are plain for all to see. The current edition of Rome's first team is a dismal failure. The Supercoppa victory at the start of the season is a distant and, as it turned out, fleeting memory. The question now, is whether or not the person that counts sees it. President Lotito is without alibis and without excuses. Lazio must return to it's porper place at the top end of the standings. President Lotito act NOW or step aside.
