........who we're allegedly playing in Austria would seem on the surface to be Italian, but can find no reference to such a side....wasn't Rodrigo a trialist from Portugal, who mysteriously disappeared last season.

The plot is thickening.....I noticed Adrian Ilie who plays for Jiul Petrosani is a bit of a football entrepreneur...he's recently acquired a Romanian side called Forex Braşov....and has property developments in Brasov.

I've hated Austria since the Anschluss.....Kurt Waldheim and Toni Polster :fu:

Just googled Rodrigo Brescia and come up with..................................................

Nothing.

Maybe they're a pub side, or maybe it's an error an we're playing Brescia.

I hated Austria ever since in went to Vienna back in 97.  Never been surrounded by so many miserable people as I was for those few days.

Maybe it's just Brescia who we're playing and the Rodrigo bit is a complete red herring. I think a lot of the Italian sides go up that way in the summer. That would be a decent fixture. They finished 10th in Serie B last season according to Wikipedia.

The OS has corrected the spelling.  It appears to be these guys who are playing in Serie C2, having been promoted from Serie D last season.

Fair play Chris I was just looking up the correct team name myself.

Serie D last season - oh dear.  Not that great a standard then.

C1 has 2 regional divisions.  Below that, C2 has 3 regional divisions, D has 9 regional leagues.

So the 3 C2 leagues would be equivalent of say Conference National, North and South, split on a regional basis.

Teams promoted from D would probably compare with Bath and Chippenham

So we should win even with the reserves out.  The trialists won't be able to prove much against that standard of opposition though
