Met an old player the other day, was he a good one. Italian sounding name ?

Got something to discuss about RL in general? Then this is the place to post it.

Met a guy who played for Wigan in the seventies, nice bloke but I can't remember his name. The second name was Italian.

He said he played in the seventies. Scliretti/ vincetti or summat ?

Does anyone remember him ?

Yep that's him, Martin. He is a really nice guy but I'm too young to remember him playing.

Was he a good player ?

In a word, no!

He was never more than an A team player. Those 11 games someone mentioned were down the the first team being on strike!

As for the Italian name, I believe he hailed from an ice-cream family!
