Lawrenson is the only other one who springs to mind.

I once saw Stefan smoking a fag in Frant Road as I walked home after a game he didn't play in I think he may have lived there I wonder if the current residents know a former Romanain captain and Champoins League winner lived there.

 

[Beach Hut]

Platini was another one who smoked and Cruyff

I lived in Frant Road [No.8 in fact] for the entire period that Iovan would have been at the club. He didn't live there. There are only 8 houses in the road too, so we would have noticed.

Mark Ormerod did live there for a bit though.

No, he definitely didn't live there either.

Good player Stefan Iovan!

Anyone know if he was picked up by Barry Lloyd?

Michael Robinson played for Liverpool in the 1984 European Cup Final v AS Roma

and spookily enough, the goalkeeper against who he scored the winner in the 83 Cup semi final was Bob Bolder, who was the unused g/k sub for Liverpool in the same match

The Final - May 30th 1984

Liverpool 1 AS Roma 1

Liverpool won 4-2 on penalties

Team : Grobbelaar, Neal, Kennedy, Lawrenson, Whelan, Hansen, Dalglish (Robinson), Lee, Rush, Johnston (Nicol), Souness

Goals : Neal (14)

Penalties : Neal, Souness, Rush, Kennedy

Att : 69,693

Unused Subs : Bolder, Hodgson, Gillespie

Yes we had to play a friendly in communist Bucharest as part of the deal. You should read garry nelson's account of that trip in one of his books. He didn't enjoy the cabbage.


and i think there was a reciprocal game at the goldstone

 

[Deano's Right Foot]

I was at the Goldstone game. I think that we might have gone 3-0 or 4-0 up in the first half. And then they brought the first team on. I think we lost 5-4!
