    The place for fond memories:

    I was fortunate to be at the 1971 Fairs Cup Final when we beat Juventus on away goal (3-3).

    I just discovered by accident that England manager Fabio Capello played in that game (both legs actually).

    Was anyone else aware of that?

    Yeah read it in the programme the other night. It's amazing what £4 can buy these days.

    It was a long time ago I remember Juventus playing in all blue and Anastasi had said he was going to score two. He was half right.

    well he'd have been a bit silly trying to play with just one leg.

    Maradona did. I don't think I ever saw him kick the ball with his right foot.
