Who was the head coach of the team U.S. Salernitana 1919 from Jul 2003 to Jun 2004?
U.S . Salernitana 1919 Unione Sportiva Salernitana 1919 , commonly referred to as Salernitana , is an Italian football club based in Salerno , Campania . Salernitana returned to Serie A in 2021 , after a break of 23 seasons , having finished second in Serie B . Previously in 2015 I Granata were promoted to Serie B , having finished first in Lega Pro Prima Divisione - Girone C . The club is the legitimate heir of the former Salernitana Calcio 1919 and there is a sports continuity also with the former Salerno Calcio in the 2011–12 season which restarted from Serie D rather than from Terza Categoria due to Article 52 NOIF of FIGC . The club – named Salerno Calcio – was promoted to Lega Pro Seconda Divisione as it re-obtained the original name of U.S . Salernitana 1919 . It was promoted to Lega Pro Prima Divisione the following season . History . From Unione Sportiva Salernitana to Salernitana Calcio 1919 . The Salerno-based club was originally founded in 1919 as the Unione Sportiva Salernitana . The club was known as Società Sportiva Salernitanaudax for a time during the 1920s following a merger with Audax Salerno . In 1978 , the club was renamed Salernitana Sport . The club has spent the majority of their history at the Serie B and Serie C levels of Italian football . Salernitana play their home matches at Stadio Arechi . In their early years , Salernitana competed in the regional Italian Football Championship . They played at this level for four seasons during the 1920s . Since that time the club returned to the top level of Italian football twice ; they played in Serie A during 1947–48 and 1998–99 . In 2005 the club went bankrupt but were refounded by Antonio Lombardi , changing the name from Salernitana Sport to Salernitana Calcio 1919 . In summer 2011 , it did not appeal against the exclusion by Commissione di Vigilanza sulle Società di Calcio Professionistiche ( Co.Vi.So.C ) and it is excluded by the Italian football . Club refoundation : from Serie D to the top flight . On 21 July 2011 , following the exclusion of the original Salernitana club , Salerno mayor Vincenzo De Luca , in compliance with Article 52 of N.O.I.F. , assigned the new title to Marco Mezzaroma , brother-in-law of Lazio owner and chairman Claudio Lotito . The new club was admitted to Serie D under the denomination of Salerno Calcio . In the 2011–12 season , Salernitana was immediately promoted to Lega Pro Seconda Divisione after winning Group G of Serie D . On 12 July 2012 the club was renamed US Salernitana 1919 . In the 2012–13 Lega Pro Seconda Divisione season , Salernitana finished first in Girone B , and was promoted to Lega Pro Prima Divisione . This was the second consecutive promotion for the team . Finally Salernitana won Group C of Lega Pro and returned Serie B in 2014–15 season . After several seasons at Serie B level , Salernitana won promotion to Serie A at the end of the 2020–21 Serie B season under the tenure of head coach Fabrizio Castori . Salernitanas promotion in Serie A will however require Lotito and Mezzaroma to sell the club , due to Italian football laws not allowing two clubs from the same owner to play in the same league . Colours , badge and nicknames . Salernitana originally wore light blue and white striped shirts , known in Italy as biancocelesti . The blue on the shirt was chosen to represent the sea , Salerno the city lies right next to the Gulf of Salerno and has a long tradition as a port city . In the 1940s , the club changed to garnet coloured shirts , which has gained them the nickname granata in their homeland . During the 2011–12 season their kit colours were striped blue and deep red , resembling F.C . Barcelona . The symbol of St . Matthew , patron saint of Salerno , was also a part of the redesigned kit . Since renaming the club US Salernitana 1919 , however , their home colours have again been the traditional garnet . The 100th anniversary logo was announced on June 24 , 2019 and appeared on their 2019–20 season kits .
