TORINOstaffs_blue said:I seem to recall somebody who regularly visits Italy( Nigel is it??) who says that we have a link with Torino.
Danamy said:blue jim said:I heard the link with Torino was that a couple of City fans went to a Torino match when in Italy and brought their City flag with them and had a laugh with the locals, who hadnt a clue what was going on.
The link with Torino came when City done a pre-season tour of Italy in 1992 and played them in one of the 3 games.
I don't know if anyone else on here attended that tour but i was on Big Bernards coach and we stayed in Lake Garda for the duration.
It was a great tour and it was also on that tour the infamous Niall Quinn's Disco Pants song came from!!
Oh the memories..........

Hi mate... i was there as well... The link with Torino is a bit older than that... There was a group of city fans who set up a 'toro club' manchester and designed a flag with the toro bull on one side and the city crest on the other.. they went to a few games in turin and the friendship was born... just before that pre season trip, we got a lot of info from the 'toro city' club in Turin... I've still got it... it had facts and info... oh and what to chant at the other games... Juve insults etc....
