Jan Aage has a bit of a reputation as a fruit loop outside of the UK.
I think he's still managing a Norweigan team, forget the name, but that would be a cracking friendly.

Jan Aage Fjortoft was the best town player I have ever seen and ive seen a few....
Just want to say no matter who people from here talk to etc and try to arrange this wont happen. And even if it did happen how many people would turn up, the 5,000 true mugs of swindon.. We need to face facts here the town doesnt support this club, they do not care.... quite frankly why waste our time. If you guys do this and get 10,000 people there I will run around the pitch naked!

I think he's still managing a Norweigan team, forget the name, but that would be a cracking friendly. he's manager/director of football or something at lillestrom. if anyone can read norweigen have a look here http://www.lsk.no/index.htm . i also noticed they have uwe rosler & gunnar halle on the management team. you are right though dazzza would be great if they came over for a pre-season game. with regards to the 'legends' game, i think it would be impossible to organise for this summer, but maybe the club could look into it for next summer? i reckon it would need a lot of promotion & advertising though if they wanted to get a decent crowd, starting around xmas and then continuing through 'til summer, gradually announcing more & more players that have commited to playing. that way it would kind of build a bit of excitment (?) i agree people like fjortoft would be the major crowd pullers though |

Fjortoft up front, with a midfield of Horlock and Hoddle? Tasty.

another thought i just had was that if the county ground does ever get knocked down & redeveloped, they could arrange something like this to mark the last ever game there?

i remember the club doing a game like this a few years ago at the county ground. it was like a random select 11 take on a swindon 11. Glenn Hoddle, Steve White, Calderwood, Taylor all played. I was Ballboy  I think that was the game I went to in October 2000, was a Sunday and weather was crap (gales etc) so about 2,500 turned up, was raising money for NSPCC. Steve White got a hat-trick, Fraser was in goal, although they played him up front later on to give the show-biz team a chance. Also remember Bodin, Calderwood, Taylor, Hoddle, Gorman etc playing, can't think who else. Angus Deaton played for Showbiz team, he was not bad, Tim Lovejoy was playing, the rest I've forgotten.  |
