I know the wife of one of his former managers. Who also managed Franz Beckenbauer, Berti Vogts, Allan Simonsen and Harald Schumacher.

Amongst our parentage are God and Ayn Rand. Bring out the comfy chair! That aside, did I leave enough clues to identify said football (soccer) manager?

No kidding. I've been wearing my lucky underpants since 1966. They are getting a bit tight. But this weekend they are coming off, and I shall be celebrating regardless of who wins.

Not my area; WC 1994 opening match in NYC Boys in Green 1 Italy 0. I was in Milano Fiori that week. Each day they played this song the whole time.

After that, a yuge influx of Italian tourists to Ireland. 9 months later...

And of course Italia 90 with Big Jack

I'm sure that they have songs to equal Milwall any day.

1988 .. seen worse

Good luck all; may the best team win.

1988 .. get the Kleenex out
My brother-in-law played with a number of these guys as keeper in the old Ajax days.
And my father-in-law sold a house for singer Andre Hazes.
