    I said that one myself last night at the quiz , and was sure i was right but these are the answers


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,251 ✭✭✭✭Lemlin


    What about Amsterdam?

    And Bucharest. I know Steau made the final but did Rapid Bucharest ever?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,382 ✭✭✭Juan Pablo


    London (spurs made a semi in the 60's)

    Budapest

    Bucharest

    Belgrade must be there, Partizan got beaten by Madrid in final back in the 60's also, and Crvena zvezda won it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,267 ✭✭✭p.pete


    Little old London? (Chelsea were in the semi's last year and I'm sure if I were to google I'd find something else...)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 349 ✭✭tel922001


    new question?

    What Player has played in an all Ireland Club final and also played in the World Cup Final aswell. ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,003 ✭✭✭✭The Muppet


    Would Glasgow be another one with Celtic and Rangers .


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,267 ✭✭✭p.pete


    hard to imagine Scotland providing 2 of the 7, but maybe :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,382 ✭✭✭Juan Pablo


    Glasgow would be there come to think of it, Rangers were knocked out in the semi's in 1960 (when the Final was staged in Hampden Park!) by Frankfurt. They got trounced 12-4 on agg.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 349 ✭✭tel922001


    glasgow is correct and the question is wrong , there is only 6 teams which have this stastic Milan, Glasgow, Dundee, Moscow Madrid and Belgrade, this question is a fairly common one doin the rounds with football fanatics

    London is there. Spurs defeated Gornik Zabrze, Feyenoord and Dukla Prague on their way to the semifinals of the Champions Cup in 1961/1962, before being beaten 4-3 on agg by a Eusebio inspired Benfica, who went on to beat Real Madrid 5-3 in the final.

    Chelsea were knocked out last year at the semi final stage by the waxy Pool.

    In 1957 Vasas SC made the semi's and in 1973-1974 Ujpesti Dozsa repeated this feat, both clubs are based in Budapest making me think there is at least 8 cities, possibly more.

    [apologies for googling] I had to find out, got work to do :rolleyes: [/apologies for googling]
