The Club Badge


Italy - Prior to heading back down under, a train trip to Pisa (not pizza), from where the first homeward bound plane [Ryanair - how brave was that!] left from. Local team, A.C. Pisa 1909, play in Serie B. Because of the abundance of Black and White striped team strips in Italy, (those T & M pioneers did a grand job), the locals had to change their white stripes to blue.

Pisa's stadium is almost in the shadow of its most famous landmark and is unusual in that it has five floodlight pylons. Only four hold lights. The fifth has such a lean on it that it isn't very reliable in the lighting stakes. It's also poorly positioned away from the ground. That said, the view from the top is great. This is your last chance to read about The Terrors' influence on the beginning of organised football in Italy. Click here. (January 2009).
