As we have Juventus in the coming Europa game, I'm wondering if anyone here remembers any tie up between us and Torino FC a few years back.

I'm guessing that as they were the 'other' team in Turin, across town from Juventus, there may have been an obvious similarity with us and MUFC.

I remember at one Maine Road game seeing a joint MCFC / Club Toro flag, I don't know if the feelings were ever reciprocated.

While my hooligan / winding up the opposition days are far behind me, might be a good time to show a bit of solidarity with some old amichis.

Anyone in the know?

Yeah, he's captain and scored 35 in 71 (according to Wiki), so pretty good for them.

They should like us then!

I think so, they were 5th in it last season so I guess they missed out.

Another similarity, manager/coach turnover.

20 since 2000, 4 in 2009!

I don't know any Italian, but on this page they seem to think Baconface and Bobby Combover are 'legends', so I'm going off them.

This could mean anything.
