Title: Rotterdam 40 years on
Post by: rgrgmartin on March 31, 2022, 09:38:07 PM

Anybody going to Rotterdam for May 26th European Cup winners reunion?

Looking forward to re-visiting after all these years.

Should be a great trip in celebration of our greatest achievement.

There was a lot of talk in April and May 2021 about a BT Sport documentary to mark our greatest achievement. Here we are heading into May 2022 and it has all gone quiet? Not a dickybird on t'internet. Anybody know anything?

I'll second that BC Villain.

Those guys were part of a very close knit team. No super star egos allowed Ron made sure of that.

Recently read that their win bonus for beating Bayern Munich was just £2.5k a 1/4 of what the Germans were on.

Great to hear their memories. Legends indeed.
