    This is, of course, correct Dave......but not the answer I was looking for <laugh> The real answer is quite easy. However - you are right in Juventus. So, over to you. The real answer was that Juventus are the only club on the list which were not present in the first ever European Cup competition.

    Yes - he played pre-war for both Hibs and St. Bernards (a division 2 team, but reached the Scottish Cup semi-final the year before the war).
