Just saw this thread. I got back from Europe a few weeks ago and I decided to create a Google Map of all the football stadiums I've visited. Some may say I have too much time on my hands.
I was at a dinner party and the husband of one of my wife's friends had to fly to Milan two years ago for a conference, spent 2 weeks in the city and was regaling us with stories of how one weekend a whole bunch of Italians were making too much noise outside his hotel room and setting off flares... two massive groups were taunting each other outside apparently, red and blacks vs blue and blacks........ looked at me with surprise when I started tearing up at the missed opportunity..
One of those guys. As soon as someone says they don't watch football or even worse any sport I tune out they need to have something bloody else that's interesting to say lol
Leoforos will ALWAYS be special, but it is falling apart man..... To be a big club again this move had to happen...
Funny when you meet types who react very positively to a football opening and you think 'hang on, my knowledge and experience may be tested here'.
Carlisle were briefly in the first division at one point, mid 70’s (1974?) from memory.
I believe Bolton was the answer to a team that had been in all 4 tiers in the Premier League era. Swindon and Oldham too. Oldham did go down to the fifth tier at a point.
