You missed Barca and the Bundesliga.
;-)
So I did Jim, how careless, so here you have it.
Barca, I don't mind, in a roundabout way they gave us Pep Guardiola. Valencia is the team in Spain for me, look out for Bilbao as well.
Bundesliga used to watch quite a bit of that, in that league it's Borussia Mönchengladbach for me.
Boring fact, had a major interest in world football from a young age. The reason, an uncle who was a United fan gave me his 1979-80 Rothman's Football Year Book, a veritable treasure trove of football information.
That was when I discovered River Plate and that Mario Kempes who played for Valencia used to play for River. Liked Valencia since they beat Arsenal in the old Cup Winners Cup and Kempes played in that game. Los Che won on pens, Kempes missed the 1st pen for Valencia then Liam Brady stepped up and missed the first one for Arsenal.
*Edit, Pat Jennings saved Kempes pen and Pereira saved Brady's pen. In my eyes GK saves are not pen misses, GK's should be given more credit for saving pens. The penalty taker was on target if the GK had gone the other way it would have been a goal. Game was played at Heysel
I should get out more.
