The 2005-06 campaign saw Bari, known as the Galletti, secure a stable mid-table finish, ending 13th in Serie B for their second consecutive season in the Italian second tier. Leading the charge was the prolific centre-forward Vincenzo Santoruvo, whose 11 crucial goals anchored the side in a year built on consolidation and consistency. It was a season that established the club as a solid fixture in the division and remains a key chapter in the Galletti's modern history.
