So lads, looks like its Rosenborg next round. This does worry me, however i still have faith, but will be tough.
{Ed007's Note - Valur have just scored, Brendan making it 2-2 and Valur through on away goals.}

Big Shuggy our centre half come centre forward in the mid 70s played for Valur before coming to paradise.

We beat Valur 9-0 on agg 1975 and Big Shuggy was playing for us against his old team. Rosenborg have scored. Unlucky Valur, good memories though.

Remember reading a piece about his father (shuggy) being a war criminal accused by the Wiesenthal (I think was the group) war crimes investigators . his father was a high ranking policeman in estonia if memory serves me . anyway his father died before investigation complete and I can't remember if there was any posthumous guilty verdict . if anybody can remember who done the piece or outcome could you post it . funny how big shuggys name mention sparks a memory I'd completely forgotten. good big versatile player for us remember the game at ibrox late 70s the big man was running amok against them and had put us 2 _0 up at ht. then for some mad reason big jock put him back into central defence and we lost 3-2.Is he still in good health as I'm recalling as I write this he had a life threatening brain haemorrhage some years back.

Was at that game. Big Shug was playing centre forward in first half. Tommy Burns lashing crosses in for the big man to score twice. The people turned it round in second half and Big Shuggy was brought back in defence. Got beat 3–2 sadly.
