The one where all the players come from the same place as the team's name. That one.

Celtic, Ken Masters - circa 67 - won the Big Cup with a Glasgow & District select.

This season .... Chelsea

Red Star Belgrade??
|
|
By:
Certainly not. Have better things to do.
Even posting on here is more exciting than football.  |

Steau Bucharest? They would not all come from Bucharest and Belgrade, surely? But all Sellik players were Glasgow and environs except one Ayrshire lad.

Velasquez - tbf, it was 1967. There must have been a lot of teams with mostly local players back then.
Becoming European Champions is another matter. That was a tremendous achievement. |

By:
Mind you, I have a feeling Celtic were never called Glasgow Celtic, just Celtic, so Ken Masters will have to keep on searching, like the bloke who was looking for the Hulk...or a yeti...or sasquatch.

I dunno, Nick - Dutch teams had Belgians and Yugoslavians...Italian sides had Germans and Spaniards and South Americans...Spanish teams always seemed to be world select teams...and English teams had mixed Brits.

i cant imagine yugoslavian tems had many outsiders 24 years ago

By:
Yeah - just wiki-ed Feyenoord V Celtic final - Feyenoord had an Austrian boss, an Austrian midfielder and a Swedish player in the final.

I'm sure you're right in terms of the bigger clubs. Don't know about the others

1969 Euro final - Ajax had a Serbian and Swede - Velibor Vasovic from Serbia.
|
|
By:
Good signing for Ajax. They scoured the whole of Europe looking for a player like that.
|
|
By:
1972 - Ajax had a German player...Rumanian manager.

I'm thinking of getting CCTV so I can watch Cardiff's matches

'Ammers.
Only £53 this Saturday to sit in line with the corner flag. Gonna go to work instead... The whole game has changed. Great for the tv viewer but those who go ( I do occasionally) are sacrificial lambs. Makes me laugh when peeps complain about the cost of cinema tickets. I think the flix is incredible value!! If it's a shoite film you complain about the film not the price. If it's a good film you're laughing! Go to a good football match and you're 'well that was fun but geez I feel poor'. |

I gave up years ago and took the same amount of money into the bookies on a saturday afternoon and had loads more fun.

Crystal Palace ever since the Malcolm Allison days and was a regular goer but football bores me in the main now and supporting Palace is not exactly an easy ride. Having said that I always go to Newcastle for their away game at St. Jame's Park as I have lot of mates from there and go on an almighty bender for a few days.

telly has undoubtedly changed it - a couple of weeks ago I couldn't make it to the man city game so I signed up for bt sport - one off payment of £13.50 set up fee, then £15.00/month. Cancelled within 7 day cooling off period, job done for less than half the price of the train ticket to waterloo

nothing to do with money, it was an early kick off - inconsiderate bastards  |

Palace. I have a season ticket and go to most aways. Man Utd on Saturday. On the beers at 9.30. It's the only reason I go! It will probably be the last season I do it though.
|

By:
misterbadger you really paid for that? I watched via a high quality stream, completely free
percy the Fins are not a race  |
|
By:
I love to bet & trade football but it'd bore me senseless to go & actually go & watch a match nowadays .. beers @ 9.30 no thanks !
I'll enjoy the Everton match with a beer in a bit  |

Jimmy Hill's Highfield Road Sky Blues - Good times. Ditched going to the footy years ago, and jumped the train to darts opens/money tournaments instead on a saturday. Guaranteed good day out and any money won was a bonus.
