Kingswood Robin Posted 6 hours ago Share Posted 6 hours ago Quite a change of fortunes from when I first watched Bordeaux v Nantes as a youngster. City were in division 4 and Bordeaux were winning everything in France with the likes of Giresse and Tigana. Still haven't seen City in the top flight though. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mad Cyril Posted 6 hours ago Share Posted 6 hours ago Bordeaux is a major port city, twinned with Bristol and it's team ends up in the 4th division. Well tough luck Bordeaux, we did it first, decades ago. What next, don't build anything and ban cars?? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

City had something similar with Hannover, another of our twin cities. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patrick Battiston (the one that got taken out by Harald Schumacher) was also playing in defence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
