Optimistic Nut 9 Posted March 26, 2006 Share Posted March 26, 2006 Just wondering since it's only 3 years until the centenary of West Auckland beating Juventus in the World Cup in 1909, what are the chances of Juve sending over a team to face West Auckland of today? Sounds a weird prospect, but didn't a Brazil XI play Exeter City a couple of years back? I say we start a campaign. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic Nut 9 Posted March 26, 2006 Author Share Posted March 26, 2006 Actually, it wasn't until 1911 that they beat Juve. They beat Zurich in the 1909 Final. In the film it's Juventus they beat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
