Ossie Ardiles

... involved in a car accident in the Falklands

Apparently he is involved in making a documentary.

Should be interesting viewing (I wonder if it is aimed at a British or Argentinian market).

Ozzy took an Argentinian stance during the conflict and stopped playing for Spurs, Ricky Villa continued to play and avoided the subject in interviews. I'll be interested to see the documentary if it is even shown on a channel I have access to.

Wasn't Ozzy's brother serving in the Argie Airforce, which made it difficult for him to stay neutral? I seem to recall something of that sort at the time?

Is it just me that thinks a task force comprising of Ossie Ardiles and Ricky Villa should pose no problems for our armed forces out there?

Well Manchester City couldn't defend against just one of them!
