Billy Watch: Costacurta calls it quits
It was a fine start for Billy Costacurta's coaching career when he took over the reigns at Mantova after Guiseppe Brucato was let go in 
October last year.
It was no easy task as Billy was expected to take a struggling team and put them into at least a play off position by the end of the season.
With several consecutive wins it looked like it would be an easy task for the Milan legend but time changed and it became tough as an injury crisis saw the team struggle to win.
Draws and defeats followed and the pressure began to mound for the central defender. In an official announcement on the website today it was announced that he decided to call it an end after his first spell in coaching.
Mario Somma, formerly of Brescia, was appointed hours after Billy's resignation. It is sad to say that Billy Watch will come to an end temporarilly until Billy finds another team or work else where in football.
