Despite the [[Serie D]] relegation, his work at Fiorenzuola was praised by a number of pundits, given the circumstances, and he was successively appointed by [[U.S. Avellino 1912\|Avellino]] of [[Serie C1]], being however fired before the beginning of the season due to poor performances in the [[Coppa Italia Serie C]] and a number of friendly matches.<ref name="hellastory"/> In June 2003, he was then appointed as head coach of [[A.C. Pistoiese\|Pistoiese]], another Serie C1 team. As well as in Fiorenzuola, Ficcadenti found a club under financial troubles, and a squad mainly composed by young and loaned players, the one with the lowest age in all the professional leagues that year; despite that, Pistoiese narrowly missed a spot in the [[Serie B]] promotion play-offs, and ended in a good 11th place.<ref name="hellastory"/> Pistoiese's performances convinced Serie B club [[Hellas Verona F.C.\|Verona]] to offer him their head coaching position in 2004.<ref name="hellastory"/> In his first year with Verona, Ficcadenti ended in a mid-table place, after having been involved in the promotion fight for the first half of the season.<ref name="hellastory"/> The [[Serie B 2005-06\|2005–06 season]], with a weaker team that lost some of their more notable players, saw Verona struggling in the relegation battle, but saving themselves from a Serie C1 fall in the end.<ref name="hellastory"/> The [[Serie B 2006-07\|following season]] proved to be much harder for Ficcadenti, as the club lost several key players such as [[Mattia Cassani]] and striker [[Adaílton (footballer, born 1977)\|Adaílton]]. Ficcadenti was then sacked in December 2006 because of poor results, being replaced by [[Giampiero Ventura]] who however did not manage to save the club from relegation. On 23 June 2007, several news announced [[Reggina Calcio\|Reggina]]'s appointment of Ficcadenti as new head coach, despite the fact he was still contracted with his previous club Verona.<ref name="ficcadenti_reggina">{{cite web\|url=http://www.channel4.com/sport/football_italia/jun23n.html \|publisher=Football Italia \|title=Reggina appoint Ficcadenti \|access-date=24 June 2007 \|date=23 June 2007 \|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070712131738/http://www.channel4.com/sport/football_italia/jun23n.html \|archive-date=12 July 2007 \|url-status=dead }}</ref> However Verona did not give Ficcadenti permission to make the move, and on 27 June, the club announced on their website to have reappointed him as their head coach for the upcoming [[2007–08 Serie C1\|2007–08 Serie C1 campaign]].<ref name="ficcadenti_verona">{{cite web \|url=http://www.hellasverona.it/news.php?id=5422 \|publisher=Hellas Verona FC \|title=Hellas Verona Football Club smentisce di essere alla ricerca di un nuovo allenatore \|access-date=27 June 2007 \|date = 27 June 2007 \|language=it}}</ref> The issue finally came to an end on 1 July, when Ficcadenti rescinded his contract with Verona and Reggina announced on their website to have appointed him as coach.<ref name="ficcadenti_reggina" /> He however made a very poor start with Reggina, failing to achieve a single win in the first ten matchdays; a shock 3–1 home loss to [[A.S.
