alanharper Posted May 5, 2020 Share Posted May 5, 2020 I went to both the "home" games. I remember we picked such a weird random mishmash of a team for the first game in Basel, but even if we'd won that match unless we'd absolutely battered them we'd still have been eliminated in the group stage on goal difference. Bit of trivia - the referee for the Karlsruhe game was one Pierluigi Collina. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emerson Thome Posted May 6, 2020 Share Posted May 6, 2020 Congrats on the new role.

matthefish2002 Posted May 7, 2020 Share Posted May 7, 2020 I remember one of the games at Rotherham a drunk bloke ran on the pitch just wearing some saggy old white pants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mole Posted May 7, 2020 Share Posted May 7, 2020 If anybody has a ticket stub from any of these intertoto cup games that they don't particularly want, i'll happily take them off your hands. Willing to pay a few quid plus postage. Already have the programmes so just the ticket stubs i'm after. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest ka58 Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 My memories of the intertoto cup. the aarhus players giving my younger brother pennants and club badges whilst he waiting for the Wednesday players to leave the stadium. 3 young lads in Doncaster shirts on the tivoli singing along with Wednesday songs but changing names of players “there’s only one Gary brabin” etc and a middle aged drunk man punching one or them in the face. the team we sent to Basel which included John pearson and Ian bowling amongst other local footballers and junior players.

Ian_D Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 With this new guy taking over the slot that Doom had, I'm giving the Star a little slack, seeing how it goes. Looked at maybe doing a monthly sub, nice intro offer of £1 a month for the first three. The then monthly price of £8.68 sort of ended my interest. I may have gone for a fiver a month but was really hoping for about 4 quid, you know a quid a week for a few SWFC articles before they get posted on here. Never really bothered with the Star apart apart from in the 70's and Thursday night's jobs section, was more of a Green 'Un reader, never ever missed buying that.

We were behind the net the one I remember is a chap who ran onto the pitch and took the goal kick for their goalkeeper. Also Ian Nolan running with the ball and falling over when no one was around him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inspector Lestrade Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 Any truth in the rumour that The Star newspaper are buying OT and intending to charge to use it? Seems a bit of a coincidence that all of a sudden The Star is all over OT and rumours are rife. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
