Sorry, but it might have been "altered" for the book.
Knew Cas as a 5 year-old in St.Pauls Cray when I used to kick the ball about with his cousin & my neighbour Peter Fitzpatrick.
Don't believe everything you read............
;-)[cite]Posted By: Ormiston Addick[/cite][cite]Posted By: Miserableold-ish git[/cite][cite]Posted By: Plaaayer[/cite]Who was it that played for Ireland despite knowing that his dad/mum was only a step parent and so didn't qualify to play for them?
Definetly Cas.
Even bought it up with Jack Charlton before playing for them, Jack said "don't worry about it lad"
He didn't.
That's not true at all. Read Cascarino's excellent auto-biography for the real story, he only found out that his Mum was adopted in 1996 and he started to play for Ireland in about 1986 before he even joined the Spanners.
When the truth emerged he DID carry on playing for Ireland after talking with management, I am not sure it was Charlton though, it may have been Mick McCarthy. The general consensus was that he had played for Ireland for 10 years so it was a bit late to make any difference if he stopped playing now.
Mind you, there have probably been more spurious cases than Cascarino.0 -
[cite]Posted By: BlackForestReds[/cite][cite]Posted By: Oggy Red[/cite]Tony Cascarino was supposed to be joining Charlton from Gillingham back in our 80's top flight days, but we signed Andy Jones from Port Vale instead - and Cas went to Millwall.
Just supposing he had signed for Charlton....... ?
The version heard was that Gillingham wanted £250K, we offered slightly less and Millwall met their offer.
Didn't we offer £350,000 to Port Vale around the same time for Andy Jones?
Why would we have offered less for Cascarino?0 -
cause he WAS a Welsh International ?0
