Remember watching the '73 game with the old man,we played in yellow (not long had a colour tv),alan ball sent off
my old man said to me "don't worry son we'll thrash them at wembley" well if it wasn't for Tomachekski we would of done
Tomaszewski, what a legend! He is known in Poland as "The Man Who Stopped England".
He is very severe in his criticism of the current Polish FA and its president Grzegorz Lato
(yes, the World Cup '74 top goal scorer himself).
i'd say out of around 50 or 60 lads,90% were Poles
I found them really nice fellas and haven't got a bad word to say against them
A lot of lads go to work abroad these days. Good to hear you got on well with them,
but it doesn't surprise me; Britain is traditionally one of the most liked countries by Poles
(it dates back to WW2 and you fighting the nazi sickf*cks alone after Poland, France
and other countries had fallen).
Hope you go through in the play-offs
Thanks a million but I can't see that happening. I'll be happy if we finish
third (but wouldn't be surprised with the 4th place).
