There’s a little bit on him here. Title: Re: Fjortoft Post by: Peter Venkman on Thursday, December 27, 2018, 11:33:19 At times a very temperamental person during his playing days at Swindon, but of a quality that doesn't come round often, took ages to get going for the Town but when he did he was unstoppable. He was lined up for a loan back to Vienna when he started to score and then he looked like scoring in every game.
Still has a very soft spot for Swindon too. Nice find MG. Title: Re: Fjortoft Post by: OOH! SHAUN TAYLOR on Friday, December 28, 2018, 13:00:10 Fjortoft and Duncan Shearer - my dream STFC strike partnership :nod:
Title: Re: Fjortoft Post by: Simon Pieman on Friday, December 28, 2018, 19:06:45 Yep Moncur has said Gorman was going to haul him off on the first game he scored in and he was going back to Vienna. Then he scored a minute later and the rest is history.

*OK, we'd probably have still gone down but we'll never know how different it might have been. Title: Fjortoft Post by: Batch on Saturday, December 29, 2018, 09:33:47 Quote Fjortoft and Duncan Shearer - my dream STFC strike partnership :nod: my favourite old(ish) school strikers too. |
