I once read an article about the Rome Council collecting money that had been thrown into the fountain. The sums collected are astronomical.

I’ll give you five euros to make it eight - biggest win I’ve seen was the seven nil against Rotherham. I’d love to see an eight!

Well done expb! Was there a good while ago - a beautiful city. At the Trevi fountain a few of the local
entrepreneurs s were supplementing their incomes by using magnets attached to extra long sticks to collect coins - some of the euro coinage was magnetic. Local cops turned up and got rid of them!

We were there when they fished the coins out. They used wheelie bins to take it away.

Had a spell staying in Gandia, Valencia, Very narrow streets. Used to go down to a bar on a Saturday night, football was always on. If Valencia scored they let a miniature bomb off in the street. They must have heard it 5 miles away. Proper fanatics in Europe
