Gillete 1,338 Posted November 9, 2015 Share Posted November 9, 2015 Any older bears able to tell me why the 1st Round 2nd Leg European Cup game in Milan was played at the Arena Civica rather than the San Siro? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterC 12,732 Posted November 9, 2015 Share Posted November 9, 2015 It was played at the San siro.

Well done. Guess the Scotsman does make it up when reporting on Rangers then. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crowd of less than 3,000 according to Rangers The Complete Record - suggestion that switch may have been weather related. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
