The heroic act made by Bodo Glimt in their Europe League quarter final win vs. Lazio was one very special happening. They had a 2-0 lead from the first game at home. Coming back to score from being
3-0 down, was one of the heroic acts.

Many players performed at a very high level. Jens Petter Hauge, in particular, had crucial passes and involvements. These were not used in the best way possible.

Barry Fry turned 80 on the 7th of April. He is one of the real survivors in football. His professional football career was one very short, never becoming a fully “Busby Babe”. He was on the books at Manchester United, but in early years moving on for other clubs. Short periods at Bolton, Luton and Leyton Orient did not help to build a reputation. The flight went downstairs to non-league action. He spent 15 years in those lower tiers. Barry Fry hung up his boots in 1974.

From his playing retirement he moved straight into football management, first being appointed at Dunstable Town. He moved around at several non-league clubs until 1993, when he was hired by Southend. The stay was short, as Birmingham made contact and he moved on.
