    Didn't play for us but Giorgio Chinaglia was brought up in Cardiff and went to Lady Mary's I believe. Played with Pele and Beckenbauer at New York Cosmos and played and scored lots of goals for Lazio as well as being capped by Italy. Sadly he played a few games for the Jacks not us.

    There was that Ferreti who Sir Alex Ferguson was supposed to have recommended to us who played a few games about fifteen years ago.

    Sorry Yoko, I meant Ojo, although you’d most probably be an improvement on him.

    I’m sure during our ECWC adventures that we never crossed swords with an Italian club.

    No, we didn’t- we’d have played AC Milan in the Final if we’d beaten Hamburg wouldn’t we?

    We would have, they beat Hamburg (your favourite club in the whole wide world) 2-0. Strange how we never played an Italian side though.
