Piero Moro is also gone forever. The Tharros fans applauded him for his footballing flair, and the people of Oristano appreciated him for the class that distinguished him even beyond the Stadio Comunale. Piero had everything of the English lord: his golden-blond hair, his light eyes, his elegance and his model gait: Peter to everyone.

He arrived in the city from Sanremese in 1968 at the request of president Salvatore Schintu to strengthen the red and white midfield with a player of great experience and undisputed technical ability. His class exploded in the flying stop, soaring far beyond the semi-professional stages where Tharros played. Piero Moro helped make the team navigate a more relaxed path, illuminating the old Comunale stadium with flashes of genius and goals worthy of a frame. From playing football, he moved on to teaching, first as coach of his hometown Tharros, and then Oristanese, San Marco di Cabras, Milis, and Montalbo di Siniscola. Later, he developed a passion for tennis and golf. Wherever he went, Piero “Peter” Moro marked the path with the lightness of a gentleman.
