Royal Holloway Old Boys F.C.

Marco Pucci

Marco Pucci

Age: 31

Playing Position: Striker

Nickname: Puch

He is: a resident of Brighton...hmmm

Player Profile:
Much was the excitement some years ago when Rob Saltrese admitted he had a mate with Italian background who could come and solve the Old Boys goalscoring problems. Actually he might have said he had a mate called Pucci who played up front but that doesn't sound as good. Anyway, young Marco turned up shaven headed and promptly scored with a fine finish in a narrow win at local rivals Virginia Water. Since then he has shown many of the signs of a fine Italian striker, scoring when it seems easier to miss, missing when it seems easier to score, never passing to anyone else and preferring shopping with the missus to playing any day (allegedly). In season 2005-6, Marco made the breakthrough into the First XI and did not let himself down, then spent the pre season going on about what a great team the Italians have after their jammy World Cup win. Marco lives in Brighton but remains true to his Essex boy roots by driving a GTi and supporting Colchester United. He also looks out for Wolves' results to ensure the missus is happy when he gets home.
