They reached the semi final of the '82 world cup when they hade an outstanding team that included Boniek and Lato. England were knocked out early in the tournament. I think Lato may have been top scorer in the '74 world cup after Poland had famously knocked England out in the qualifiers. Boniek went on to play with the Platini lead Juve team of the mid '80's. As Big Niall pointed out it was Boniek who won the "penalty" for Juve in the '85 European Cup Final when Gillespie took him down "outside" the box.
Polish fan is entitled to his opinion like everone else. It's admirable that he is defending his fellow countryman. English people went nutty during euro 2004 because their teenager played well against two ****** teams. The rest of the world (including myself found it hilarious). Don't forget that Brian Clough famously called the Polish keeper a clown in '73. The same keeper proceeded to have a blinder against England and helped deny poor England a place in Germany '74....so don't have a blast at our polish forum member just because he is backing his fellow country man.
Good shout Sean.
Polish football deserves respect, and polish lfc supporters are just as valuable as any other lfc supporter.
Well said to both of you!!
Have a some repect for Poland, ffs!!
