PaulSaint Posted 3 September, 2009 Share Posted 3 September, 2009 As well as Papa, who have we signed from Italy, where they good & was it Serie A, B, etc? Only one my feeble memory can remember is the Rideout transfer from Bari in the eighties. He played real good in that 4-2-4 formation against Liverpool at the ole cowshed:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
