Anglo Italian Cup...

I was unable to finance myself at the time, but, have memories of walking past Burnden and noticing the billboard for Ancona, have been told (second-hand) tales of Gheorge Hagi gracing our field, didn't we put a cheeky bid in for him at one stage? During the McFarland/Todd season? One selling point was he (Hagi) was 'familiar' with the club, also he'd gobbed on John Aldridge at one point so...

Hagi scored with a pearoller from about 40 yards that "went through" Aiden Davison. The crowd was about 3,000 plus the staff of Tiggis.

 

Ancona were shit.

Hadji played for Bresica didn't he in the 3-3 was colina reffing that neet?

Ancona was the 5-0

 

Hagi played for Bari in a 3-3

I wasn't offering an opinion mate - merely stating the obvious that J will be off on one shortly :D

Yep, sorry, I didn't make that clear. We scored a "winner" against Brescia, they went fucking mental and it was chalked off.

Point taken - but he really (Jussi) has gone shite...Anewman is correct in his slating of him...

I went to Pisa with the misses about 4 years ago and kept seeing grafiti and posters for Wanderers Pisa, this is not the name of the football team but it was everywhere in Pisa. I have googled it but can only come up with this web page.

 

http://www.wandererspisa.it/

 

Its baffled me!

Wernt england at san marino a few days later?

 

It was the next nite, it was the famous cock up in the first minute by Pearce, plenty whites there that night in a crowd of about 1500.

We played Ancona, Brescia, Pisa and Ascoli. Stoke got lucky and got Fiorentina at home. There were some cracking players, Bierhoff was at Ascoli at the time.

Went to Pisa. Got the match poster from a cafe & got it signed by goalscorer Jimmy P at the airport.

First Whites official away match in Europe ..... except for pre-season tours.

:drinks:

Wasnt he supposed to be pretty good at hurling bar stools at munichs though?

Went to Pisa & the England game by mini bus (beore the days of cheap no frills airlines)

 

Was a cracking experience to see Bolton on foreign soil for the 1st time.

 

Went back there a few years later for England game in Rome. Went up to the ground and there was a few folk gathered around & 1 coach turned up. Turned out it was their travel club & they were playing away. Somewhere local as they'd dropped down to the regional leagues.

 

Spoke to a couple of lads who guessed why we were there & when we said we were from Bolton, they were very complimentary about our support that night.

 

I remember Pisa fans nipping between the Police segregation & swapping scarfs with Bolton fans. Florence was giving programmes & sweets to the local youngsters.

 

One of those special nights to be a Bolton fan. I've still got the match poster in my old bedroom at my mam's.
