Btw Chalky, is that true about the stripes link between Notts County & Juventus ?
Yes Acido,its 100% true,the striped shirts have a direct link to Notts and the first time that they played in those colours they was playing in old Notts County shirts
Another link that Nottingham has with Italian football is Herbert Kilpin who was born in and raised in Nottingham before emigrating to Italy, there he formed the first ever Italian football club,became the first ever Englishman to play football in Italy before moving to Milan where he formed another football club....AC Milan!
