Brief article on the mail website about Cowans & Rideout going to Bari in '85

In the mid-1980s just about every major footballer wanted to be in Italy and just about every Serie A club wanted to have a major foreign star — or two. Napoli had Diego Maradona, Juventus had Michel Platini and Inter Milan had Karl-Heinz Rummenigge. There were many others, Liam Brady and Graeme Souness among them.When Bari, from the south-east coast, were promoted from Serie B in 1985, they wanted to join this rush to sign glamorous foreign quality.

Right now Enda Stevens is playing left back for Sheff Utd vs Cardiff who have Joe Bennet at left back.

Bennet is more than likely going to be back in the PL before AVFC. Must have had some decent coaching from Warnock's back-room team.

Enda Stevens has had a really good season for Sheffield and plays the left wing back role really well.

Another we signed who we should've loaned out a few times instead of just crossing fingers they could instantly adapt to premier league.

I look forward to Sherwood flipping again and saying he was his signing if he does anything of note in the next few years.

Well Veretout has come out and said Sherwood hardly ever talked to him so yes Tim would certainly be talking out of his behind if he ever says anything like that.
